Directions for how to leave the planet - thought i'd share (Mar/11/2008 )
1. Phone NASA. Their phone number is (713)-483-3111. Explain that it's very important that you get away as soon as possible.
2. If they do not cooperate, phone any friend you may have in the White House, (202)-456-1414, to have a word on your behalf with the guys at NASA.
3. If you don't have any friends at the White House, phone the Kremlin (ask overseas operator for 0107-095-295-9051). They don't have any friends there either (at least, none to speak of), but they do seem to have a little influence, so you might as well try.
4. If that also fails, phone the Pope for guidance. His telephone number is 011-39-6-6982, and I gather his switchboard is infallible.
5. If all these attempts fail, flag down a passing flying saucer and explain that it's vitally important you get away before your phone bill arrives.

If you have several millions of $/€ left you can decide: Fly with the Russians or pay your bills.
Or wait for the Vogons to take you with them
doesnt bode well for the rest of us
it won't be by their choice and knowledge. and be careful, if they find you they will torture you with vogon poetry and then space you.
then, hopefully, you will be saved by someone with a "heart of gold".

And we can meet Marvin the depressed robot ("The first ten million years were the worst, and the second ten million years, they were the worst too. The third ten million I didn't enjoy at all. After that I went into a bit of a decline." Sounds how I felt sometimes after being too long in the lab...)
and Trillian ("a slim, darkish humanoid, with long waves of black hair, a full mouth, and odd little knob of a nose and ridiculously brown eyes...she looked vaguely Arabic. Not that anyone there had ever heard of an Arab of course." resembles somewhat to somebody here?)
Try contacting the Chinese. They could blast you into space and then its up to you to hitch hike a ride away from this galaxy.
ok
i'm off
so long and thanks for all the fish

A hard question: What is better: being a astronaut, a cosmonaut or a taikonaut?
I guess astronaut is most comfortable and expensive.
Ooh, so many?
I am going home next week, anyone wants to come with me? I can drop you somewhere near saturn; farther than that regulations don't allow. . ..how to get to me? Well, the ultimate answer is '42'. Call me at that number.
