    Wow, that looks like the craziest thing ever. I remember reading the book a long time ago, so I'm kind of fuzzy on what happens. The author had to have been high when he came up with those ideas.

    it ranks first on mine...

    I first read the entire series right after he finished So Long and Thanks For All The Fish...and have even watched the cheesy BBC miniseries a few times...

    Im a huge fan of Douglas Adams(RIP)..

    Read the books multiple times, listened to all the audio cassettes, even watched some of that gawd-awful thing they had on the BBC. There are few bigger Douglas Adams fans than me. I'm still waiting for the Dirk Gently movie. :)

    Wishful thinking. :(

    I'd thought about using Svlad Cjelli as a handle before, but decided that it was far too obscure a reference and didn't really want to go through internet life as "Svlad".

    I'm very happy that I picked this name for this board, and I don't appreciate the insult.

    Should I go post a thread in the D&D and ask if my posts are insulting.;)

    I should have used a winker. I meant no offense.

    In retrospect, I have no idea why I took your post at face value. One of those days here. I guess I did need that smilie. ;)

    I thought the tv show was great. But then again, I was only 13-14 when I watched it. It was really funny as I recall. That and Doctor Who are the best sci-fi shows to come from the BBC.

    Isn't it Zaphod Beeblebrox, or something like that?

    Anyway, I'm a huge fan of this story and am pumped up about the movie. It looks like it'll be tons of fun, and of course the effects should be outstanding. I can't wait!

    Thanks for the link to the trailer.

    Drink up, the world's about to end.

    Between The Office and now this, I am becoming quite a fan of Martin Freeman.
