Towel Day 2006

As fate would have it, today, in addition to the 30th anniversary of Star Wars, is also Towel Day, the international tribute to the late Douglas Adams. The 25th of May is a very hoopy day indeed.

    That Douglas Adams, he was one hoopy frood.

    Indeed he was. He didn’t need any peril-sensitive sunglasses to maintain his air of cool! And I’m sure he always knew where his towel was, too.
    One of these days, I really need to read those books again…

    Damn, I knew I was forgetting something when I left home this morning. Will a paper hand towel from the bath room here at work suffice?

    Depends… is it large enough to wrap around your head so you can hide from the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal?

  5. the girlfriend

    I think I’m screwed….

    Nah, just avoid eye contact. Remember, the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal is so stupid that it thinks if you can’t see it, it can’t see you…

    Hum, maybe I’m part Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal. Apparantly I had the same theory when I was a toddler. 🙂

    That’s a troubling thought…
