I'd like to thank Alyster for starting such a classy thread. My Buddy Steve for all the support. Love you sweet heart. I'd also like to thank Jesus, my Mom... Mom, we couldn't have done it without you! "You like me. You really like me!" Now i have to go shower... I feel dirty for having Upped my OWF post count...

Did I spell it right this time? First a poem: “Oh freddled gruntbuggly, Thy micturations are to me As plurdled gabbleblotchits On a lurgid bee. Groop, I implore thee, my foonting turlingdromes And hooptiously drangle me With crinkly bindlewurdles, Or I will rend thee in the gobberwarts with my blurglecruncheon, See if I don’t!” Alright, enough of that... srs bzns time. MHA declares war on Nordreich via our treaty with Umbrella. Now let the Trolling commence!

We have always carried our towels. But never lost track of our umbrella. One needs an umbrella on a rainy day. And even with umbrella, a towel may prove usefull. After all, one to prevent getting wet, the other to get dry when you're wet. Today, we carry both. Because we go play on the beach. Today, MHA declares war on Non Grata.

Monday, 14th May 2001, 06:00am PDT: Douglas Adams will be missed by his fans worldwide. So that all his fans everywhere can pay tribute to this genius, I propose that two weeks after his passing (25 May 2001) be marked as "Towel Day". All Douglas Adams fans are encouraged to carry a towel with them for the day. So long Douglas, and thanks for all the fish! — D Clyde Williamson, 2001-05-14 Wednesday, 16th May 2001, probably not 06:00am PDT: A new holiday has been proposed to celebrate the life and accomplishments of Mr Douglas N Adams. This holiday is Towel Day. Further information can be found on the Towel Org website As members of the Guide, however, I propose that we take it one step further. My suggestion is that we make this an annual observance. On the last Friday of every May1, let us go forth with our towels and spread the word of 42. — Researcher U93295: Gw7en, Voice of Chaos (Classic) And so, in accordance with cultish traditions, we froods take to arms our most valuable tool. The towel. An uncredited, unreliable, unknown, undefined and otherwise uncared for source on towels, Webster, defines a towel as: “an absorbent cloth or paper for wiping or drying.” Which, if you’re willing to be eaten by the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal, that’s quiet alright. Our foremost expert, Douglas Adams expresses a towel as: "… the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have. Partly it has great practical value." Which, is all anyone needs to know about towels, frankly. he says hi 42 Uses for a towel 1. Wrap it around you for warmth as you bound across the cold moons of Jaglan Beta. 2. Lie on it on the brilliant marble-sanded beaches of Santraginus V, inhaling the heady sea vapours. 3. Sleep under it beneath the stars which shine so redly on the desert world of Kakrafoon. 4. Use it to sail a miniraft down the slow heavy River Moth. 5. Wet it for use in hand-to-hand-combat. 6. Wrap it round your head to ward off noxious fumes. 7. Avoid the gaze of the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal (such a mind-bogglingly stupid animal, it assumes that if you can’t see it, it can’t see you). 8. Wave your towel in emergencies as a distress signal. 9. Dry yourself off with it. 10. Attach it to a pole to make your very own flag – preferably with the “Don’t Panic” slogan. 11. Stuff your ears with it to block out the sound of Kria poetry (the second worst poetry in the Universe). 12. Set up the perfect foil to cover a towel sized hole to capture enemies. 13. Wear it as a majestic superhero cape. 14. Horde your precious Altairian dollars using your towel as a makeshift moneybag. 15. Wave it around madly like a Matador to confound intergalactic beasts. 16. Cover your modesty. 17. Fold it into a comfy pillow – easier to hold onto than the flying pillows of Squornshellous Delta. 18. Carefully wrap around a stick, dunk in flammable liquid and use as a fire torch. 19. Remove hot dishes from the oven in the absence of oven gloves. 20. Use it to support you weight as you slide down a massive zip line shouting “Cowabunga”. 21. Swat flies and other irritating space gnats that come too close. 22. Cover the solar panel of droid robots, therefore rendering them useless. 23. Catch planetary aquatic life forms in a rudimentary fishing net on Frogstar World C . 24. Roll it into a ball and stuff it down the back of your shirt to imitate a hump. 25. Soak in Algolian Claret or another alcoholic tipple of your choice as a liquid sponge. 26. Blindfold yourself with it to avoid the unimaginable horrors of the Total Perspective Vortex. 27. Use it as a sun shade from the hot rays of Ursa Minor Beta. 28. Knot it together on a stick to make a haversack. 29. Apply to bleeding wounds as a field dressing. 30. Block drafts from the door on cold planets like Epun. 31. Drape it over your porthole on a spaceship as a curtain. 32. Combine with other hitchhikers’ towels to create a giant patchwork towel quilt. 33. Make a furry sack for Christmas presents. 34. Bind particularly weak and effeminate alien prisoners in the absence of handcuffs. 35. Wrap precious cargo such as the highly sought after Antarean parakeet glands for galaxy cocktails. 36. Stuff into the gob of an annoying loudmouth who will not shut up. 37. Whip lazy beasts that travel too slowly for your liking. 38. Open up your towel into a parachute on low-gravity planets. 39. Keep it across your face to ward off the dust and sand blizzards of Dangrabad Beta. 40. A knotted towel can be used as a short but effective climbing rope. 41. Tie neatly around your head to create a towel Turban. 42. Create a grand tent for a travelling Intergalactic Flea Circus.

In some parts of the galaxy that would be considered temperance, but here in the editor’s office it’s considered a travesty. Don’t worry, we’re not falling off any wagons or admitting to any problems, we just had some budget constraints preventing us from restocking the bar and our former editor the venerable WCR took all the top-shelf stuff with him when he disappeared into the night. If anyone sees him, let him know that we restocked the bar, so he can come back and take his job back! All kidding aside (who am I kidding, we’re always kidding) we’re going to be featuring a carbonated cocktail. Carbonation isn’t just for the kiddies slurping down soda pops, but has started gaining more popularity with the ‘in-crowd’. On aside, this writer is definitely not trendy, but is rather cheap and likes that carbonation helps get the alcohol to the blood stream faster, reducing the amount of drinks he needs to get that pleasant buzz. Carbonation of the drink directly versus using soda water or fizzy drink allows for it to not get diluted and adds a new dimension to your ordinary cocktail. There are lots of different carbonators out there on the market from the CO2 Perlini or the nitrous iSi soda siphon. If you don’t want to go to the added expense of buying a carbonator, buy some dry ice and use that instead (please be extremely careful with any carbonators or dry ice, the ‘Don’t Panic’ is not responsible for any damage you may do to your liver or other important parts of your body). Vogon Rose – 2 oz vodka 2 oz cranberry juice 1/4 oz of simple syrup 1/4 oz of lime juice Place all ingredients in a shaker with some ice and mix well. Strain into your carbonator or add dry ice to the mixture. Can garnish with whatever you want, enjoy!

A carefree universe with seeming-less limits or consequences. No need to worry about fuel economy or oxygen skipping around the universe. A chance to escape from the drama and hectic world we live in, to embrace in creativity and imagination. We take this day to remember Douglas Adams, a gifted writer, musician and environmental activist. Mr. Adams has created a strong impact to the "save the rhino international" organisation, since 2003, every year around the time of Mr. Adams birthday, the organisation holds a fundraiser in his memory to help raise money for environmental campaigns. And last but not least, Mr. Adams has opened our eyes to the meaning of life, the universe and everything. And so today, we celebrate Towel Day.
