Today (May 25th) it's Towel Day!

Postby cyberbofh » Thu May 25, 2017 8:57 am

Greetings CMDRs o7

Heads up! Today it's Towel Day!
It's not only a tribute to scifi writer Douglas Adams, but it's also very useful as well!
(find out more about it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Towel_Day)

So before you leave your favorite space station or planetary base, make sure to carry a towel with you.. just in case ;)

Great books! As Douglas Adams said, the first ever 5 part trilogy ;)
Great fun reading it and will re-read it again, someday.

42! CMDR

Don't be ashamed CMDR. Just read.
You will have a great time and laugh your head off. Do it.

Oh freddled gruntbuggly, Thy micturations are to me, As plurdled gabbleblotchits, On a lurgid bee, That mordiously hath blurted out, Its earted jurtles, Into a rancid festering confectious organ squealer. Now the jurpling slayjid agrocrustles, Are slurping hagrilly up the axlegrurts, And living glupules frart and stipulate, Like jowling meated liverslime, Groop, I implore thee, my foonting turlingdromes, And hooptiously drangle me, With crinkly bindlewurdles,mashurbitries. Or else I shall rend thee in the gobberwarts with my blurglecruncheon, See if I don't!

HHGTTG still has one of the first jokes I remember that took me a few readings to allow the neurons to line up in the right way......

“It's unpleasantly like being drunk."
"What's so unpleasant about being drunk?"
"You ask a glass of water.”
