Once a Day Book part 12

Okay so this time there wasn't much content either for me to cover but I will try my hardest. So in the part I read Arthur got stuck in some black cave like space and he met a "being" that he had apparently killed in multiple lives. Meaning Arthur killed him when he was an ant, then killed him again later when he was a rabbit. See this is one of the things that I love about Douglas Adams. How he goes on about something that isn't necessarily part of the story but in a way makes it funny. Some people wouldn't enjoy all the extra reading, but I love it because he does it in a way where you find yourself wanting him to go on about anything. The only other thing we learned is that Slartibartfast is trying to stop all the white robots which we pretty much already know. And well that was pretty much it! So until next time.........I KILL THE SAME PERSON AS DIFFERENT CREATURES!!!!

Once a Day Book part 11

Okay so what happened is really short. All that happened is THE WHITE ROBOTS ATTACKED THE SPACESHIP HEART OF GOLD!!! Yes they did. They want a special part of the heart of the heart of gold. They have already obtained the three pillars, which we were told about in the "History Video" (Did you take your notes Jimmy?!?!?). So they are planning on reassembling the key to the "gate" of the planet of Krikkit (I think I spelled that right) from it's seal that will last until the whole entire universe is destroyed (because the people of Krikkit want to live alone so the whole universe is their planet WHY IS THIS PARENTHESIS PART SO LONG?). So they are going to free their deadly ancestors. Because, and I love the way Douglas Adams puts this, they are very nice, and smart, they just want to eliminate all life in the universe. Now, I don't want to say this because of my awesome "long blog post streak" but I have to: THIS IS THE END OF THIS POST. Sorry, just not that much stuff to cover. So until next time you guys.....I'ma go play some tennis, eat a bagel, and destroy all life in the universe :) cya

Once a Day Book part 10

Okay so bad news and good news: Bad news is that the chapters I read had to take a while to explain everything to give the reader a good understanding of what's going on so I didn't learn that much. Good news is that I did some reading besides the one day I read for a long time and do a blog post about it so it gives me some more content to put in this. So here we go: So the cricket game ended and England won. Then Slartibartfast showed up and went to the field to take the ashes that were going to be given to the England team for winning, saying that it was to save the universe of something, but before he could take them, a bunch of white robots showed up and started hitting red balls that explode on contact (except for when the robots hit them) at the people on the field and there was a huge slaughter (finally the end of this "run on" sentence). And the S.E.P. (Somebody Else's Problem) was Slartibartfast's ship. And can you guess what the ship was shaped like? That's right! An Italian bistro! Because cmon, you know that you wouldn't want to see an Italian Bistro just floating there in the air. You'd rather want to just ignore it like it was, well, somebody else's problem. And when Ford and Arthur got inside the "ship" they saw it was dimly lit and looked like the inside of an Italian Bistro (shocker!). Now this gave me an impression that Slartibartfast was sort of, well, "emo" (you know, like somebody who is over emotional and likes to inflict pain on them self). And if that wasn't enough weirdness, the thing powering this "ship" (if you can even call it that) is a room with a table and robots sitting at it ordering food from a robot waiter (just like in an Italian Bistro). And as Slartibartfast explained later: it's because the numbers of all the different things that happen on a waiters notepad are "impossible numbers" and a bunch of other math stuff that was impossibly complicated and I couldn't understand it. So then Slartibartfast turns on some video and it basically one of those cheep History film (like in school!) about some war between these planets. And this is one of the things that I love about Douglas Adams: During the video Slartibartfast said to not agree to buy anything, because the video was selling something. And the fact that he puts something like this that we would see in something like a website or something like that in a History film is saying that we have evolved to put those things in History films as well as websites and things like that. Well thats it for now so until then, SUPER CLEANER'S SUPER SPONGE NOW ONLY $5.99!!!!

Once a Day Book part 9

Okay guys so I finally know what happens after the whole "forty two" thing in from the last post, and it's that Ford and Arthur realize that that since organic life was part of the computer matrix for the making of earth made to compute the Ultimate Question to the Ultimate Answer (which is 42) and that the cavemen were also part of it since they know 42 but they are dying out (big deep breathe because this is a huge run on sentence), that this new earth made by the Magrathians will not last because it won't have the cavemen soon. So Ford remembers that the Ultimate Question was somehow in Arthurs unconscious, that placing scrabble letters down blindfolded would get the Ultimate Question out. So they did this and it instantly started working and boom they got "What do you get when you multiply six by nine?" which can't be right if the answer is 42, but it's a start. Now here's the thing, I think that Douglas Adams, the author, was somehow in a hurry and rushed this ending because it all happened so fast and then boom the end of that chapter (I won't talk about the next and last chapter because it doesn't have any important information, I think it's just a useless chapter but I might be wrong). Now on to the next book. Yep that's right, I'm now reading the next book. And so far Arthur and Ford got out of prehistoric times by doing a classic Ford. Now this is what I call it when Arthur and Ford are in a bad situation without any way of getting out of, and Ford knows about something magical and weird that they use to get out of whatever situation they might find themselves in. This time it was an "Eddie" in the space time continuum, or, in this case, a fast moving couch that took them forward in time to a cricket field (you know cricket. That game British people play. Ahhhh the brits). Now I love classic Fords because they are so funny. Why? Well because Arthur always (always) doesn't know what the heck he's talking about and him and Ford have these hilarious conversations. And after they got up to the stands in the at the cricket game, they saw in the paper it was actually so far in the future that it was 2 days away from when the earth gets destroyed. Then, another classic Ford. Although this time it wasn't to get out of an impossible situation. It was Somebody Else's Problem. This is something your brain doesn't want you to see because it thinks it's, well, somebody else's problem, and the only way to see it is to know what it is. And well that's all I read. Have fun realizing that after reading this gigantic blog post that you've just took up about 30 minutes doing so. Now until next time, LOOK IT'S SOMETHING MAGICAL TO GET ME OUT OF THIS HOMEWORK SITUATION! poof I'm gone.

Once a Day Book part 8

Yeah guys wazzaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa(?). Your gonna be happy with me because this blog post is gonna be a lot of my opinion and bloggy stuff instead of some of that and a lot of describing the plot like I normally do. So in this reading period Ford Prefect (his last name always reminds me of "Perfect") went to go talk to the captain of the ship they were on (I'm gonna call him cap because I'm not sure if he was number 1 and if I go to check I'll have to leave this page) about how Ford and Arthur found out they were on earth. Now when he goes to do that, cap and his surviving people were having an annual meeting while he was in a hot spring (his second bathtub) talking about what they have are going to accomplish. So Ford overheard what they were talking about and jumped in. Now this part is where Douglas Adams really shows off the way he goes on and on about things that aren't very relevant (except in this situation) but does it in a way that is funny and very entertaining. So Ford and cap go on and on about how the things cap and his people have done as the crowd cheers at anything and everything possible because they are so bored. Now here is something that I saw that I thought was a sneaky and hard to notice move: the crowd started out just cheering at anything that sounded exciting just for excitement, making you believe they aren't a very relevant thing in the conversation, but are merely just for laughs. Now here he actually had to make the argument over Ford and cap long because every time something excited, or worth cheering to according to the crowd, the crowd would cheer harder, gradually cheering louder and longer. They reached a point where when cap or his assistant (who was more involved in the argument at hand than cap was) would make a comeback, the crowd wouldn't be cheering on the trio, they would be cheering on the cap and his assistant (who by now was pretty pissed) and basically making fun of Ford. Ford, being a fast-paced man, just gave up and told them that in two million years they would be completely wiped out, because as History happened on the old earth, it took two million years for man to be made, and the cavemen that Ford and Arthur saw earlier were going to be the men. But since there were no humans who liked baths and had futuristic guns and ships, that must mean they are going to die off. But as Ford and Arthur later found out, the cavemen had already beat the bath people (that's what I'm calling the people led by cap) to it, for they were already dying off (I know this is taking a while but I'm almost done). But Arthur wasn't giving up and tried to play Scrabble with the cavemen to speed up evolution but it didn't work (no duh!). But (now in this sentence I give you an intense cliffhanger for you and me because right when I read up to this part, reading time was over! And it's the last chapter of the book!!!) one of the cavemen.........was pounding on the letters with his fist.........while Arthur and Ford were talking.........but then they got annoyed.........so they checked out what he was up to............and they looked over his shoulder........and saw.....spelled out..........in the letters Arthur was using for Scrabble........was two words...........two very very VERY important words.......and those words........were.........f...o...r...t...y...-...t...w...o.......DUN DUN DUN CLIFFHANGER (forty-two is the answer to life, the universe, and everything if you remember from the first book)!!!

Once a Day Book Part 7

Guess who's back. C'mon give it your best shot (and no it's not Tupac). It's me!! Yay!!! I know I know I forgot to post 2 weeks ago but here-ith be-ith me.....-ith. Yes I'm back and listening to Blink-182. But lets get back to the book (yay books! It's like.......a story......in.....words....WHATEVER)! So when we left off (don't worry I won't take forever to tell you what happened like I always do) they (Ford and Arthur) were at the bridge with 1 (bath-man......no not batman) and 2 (mr. Make weird faces at 1 through mirrors). Now finally you get to find out what the heck is up with the crazy ship. Now here is where I like the writer. He really describes the different characters in little ways that are kinda funny. Like the way he tells you that 1 is...well...lets just say not the smartest person is with little things like when Ford asks about the joggers, 1 is sort of confused and acted like he's never seen them, then he realized the people Ford was talking about. But the biggest thing and (in my opinion) funniest thing about the chapter is when 1 talks about how there were actually three ships, all completely filled with people. One ship had the smartest people on the planet they use to live on, and the other had the most hard working people in it. And well, the ship our characters are on is the ship with all the other people. They were all put on ships because, as 1 was told, there was a huge sheep monster that was going to eat everyone. But then 3, 1's waiter, said he was told that the planet's sun was gonna crash into it. Then we are told that 1's ship was sent of first to a location unknown and unchangeable. He also said that he can't see the other two ships behind him but according to him "They are back there......". This should give you enough information to know that they were sent somewhere because nobody wants those people who just sit around and do nothing. I then spent the next ten minutes laughing my but off at this. BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE! Wow that took up a lot of space....sorry bout that. But heres the final cliff-hanger. The ship finally landed on some strange, but familiar planet. With some wandering (and some leaving the other people behind) Ford and Arthur found a tribe of gibberish speaking people who gave them food very relative to earth fruit. With some forward motion (which in a completely unrelated manner, people NEED TO LEARN MORE OF) the duo managed to find a huge glacier. And in it, they saw the grayish shape of alien words.......and a mans head......all carved in the ice.......a man.....who got an award........an award for making a certain place.....on the earth.......called Norway. All of this was on a glacier..........in Norway. OMG CLIFF-HANGER!!! Well that's all. Until next time........help me I'm hanging from a cliff :(

Once a Day Book Part 6

So this week i actually read once before the scheduled day and so this post might be a lot of me talking about what happened and not that much saying what I think, but I do try to not only talk about the plot I really do guys. So anyways, here's what happened in a nutshell: The gang (Zaphod, Trillian, Arthur, Marvin, and Ford) are in "the guy who was dead for a year because of tax reasons"'s stunt car that he uses in a band that I think he is the manager of or something and the gang was going to be hurled into the sun. Then they found a teleporter and teleported themselves away. But this teleporter didn't have a location set and so the gang (except Marvin who had to stay behind and work the teleporter who I think just might be dead :( ) was teleporter each to a completely random spot in the whole giant universe. And with luck Arthur and Ford were teleported not only on a ship with joggers who run around it and then go into coffins and rest there with a captain who has basically been on a three year bath in a bathtub in the middle of the bridge, but they also were telepoterd back before their own time! So now onto what I think (yeah there's more!) about this part. The whole joggers and weird captain named "Number 1" (which I failed to mention) and another guy named "Number 2" (who I also failed to mention) with another officer on the bridge (okay so I forget a lot!) is a little but random to me, but then again so is most of the book. Now "Number 2" (I'm gonna just call him 2) hates 1 (number 1) and 1 doesn't really see it, or so the book tells you. Now 2 gets mad at 1 because 1 won't let 2 question Arthur and Ford and so 2 goes to the corner and makes faces at 1 through a mirror. I think that 2 is considered to be the guy who takes this stuff seriously and doesn't like 1 because of the way he just sits in his bath a lot and drinks drinks that I can't even name (jynnon tynonna or something). So I guess I'm going to end this here because all in all not that much can be said about this part except what the book says and I don't want to bore you like how I said at the start of this. So until next time...........I think I'm gonna take a bath!
