I'd've posted this earlier if I remembered. Today is Towel Day, commemorating Douglas Adams, who died two years ago on this day.

42-towel salute!

Indeed...

A 42 towel salute for the man who gave us the Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster amongst other things.

I did not know this.

I'm wearing my towel now, slung over my shoulder.

OK, I plan to get in on next years Towel Day, who's with me?

Could a towel-whipping be appropriate?

I forgot too. Jeebus, I feel bad....

Funnily enough I spent most of today lounging around at home wrapped in an extra large bath towel. It was one of those lazy days when the weather's all crappy and I can't be bothered to leave the warm comfort of my home.

He was one hoopy frood who always knew where his towel was.

Next time, tell us in advance, and I'll be sure to wear mine all day!

God, its been two years already!?

Well I'll certainly have my share of Pan Galactic Gargleblasters tonight (actually finding every alcoholic beverage left in the kitchen and using Bex's cocktail mixer).

*Salutes*

And I still haven't read Salmon of Doubt for fear of wanting it to be finished so badly.

That's TODAY!

Someone rattail me, I feel so ashamed

I shall wear my towel proudly today.

Mmm, I could do with another glass right now, but I need those braincells for my finals.

FUCK! I FORGOT!!!!
DAMN ME!

About 2 months ago, I bought Stephen Hawking's "The Theory of Everything". The guy at the counter said "the answer is 42".... I was completely clueless about why he said that. Then it hit me while I was getting in the car. I need a good towel whipping for that momentary lapse.

Never mind the Towel Whipping, I think you need a good dose of Vogon Poetry... if I were you, I'd start knawing your legs off now.

Man, that's harsh.
