Lets join the celebration of Douglas Adams birthday today with quote from another one of his books
-
Douglas Adams(1952 - 2001)
- The Restaurant at the End of the Universe
Facing annihilation at the
hands of the warlike Vogons is a curious time to have a craving for tea. It
could only happen to the cosmically displaced Arthur Dent and his curious
comrades in arms as they hurtle across space powered by pure improbabilityband
desperately in search of a place to eat.
Among Arthur's motley
shipmates are Ford Prefect, a longtime friend and expert contributor to the
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy; Zaphod Beeblebrox, the three-armed,
two-headed ex-president of the galaxy; Tricia McMillan, a fellow Earth refugee
who's gone native (her name is Trillian now); and Marvin, the moody android who
suffers nothing and no one very gladly. Their destination? The ultimate hot
spot for an evening of apocalyptic entertainment and fine dining, where the
food (literally) speaks for itself.
Will they make it? The
answer: hard to say. But bear in mind that the Hitchhiker's Guide deleted the
term "Future Perfect" from its pages, since it was discovered not to
be!
"What's such fun is
how amusing the galaxy looks through Adams' sardonically silly eyes."
