I am starting my journey into the universe!
I am loving these books!
These books do not leave my side!
I know understand a few more Doper quotes!
I have been enlightened!
DON’T PANIC
Yeah, they’re a lot of fun.
Afterward you may want to change the spelling of your username.
Why? 
If it will ruin something please don’t say, but now I am so curious!
I am just now at the resturant at the end of the universe, and I will have a hard time eating steak again.
You will understand why after reading Life, the Universe, and Everything.
Life. Don’t talk to me about life!
You guys are great!
GuanoLad, that is a book and a half away! I’ll be up all night!
QtM, that is something Marvin says right?
One of my favorite parts of the book I’m on now is when he is left alone to stop the tank.
As much as I read, I’ve never cracked a Hitchhiker book. I better get, um, cracking. I feel so left out around here!
Yes it is.
I’m always glad to hear when people say they’ve just picked up Hitchiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, It’s my favorite book, that and The Resteraunt at the end of the Universe. Enjoy finishing that one, it’s an imagination stretching joy that I’ve found myself getting sucked into on more than one occasion. I can’t even say how many times I reread the first three Hitchiker books.
One of the greatest things about reading is discovering the signifigance behind certain words, numbers, and odd phrases. By now I’m sure you’ve seen your fair share of 42 scribbled on bathroom walls (or is that just my workplace?), Bablefish stuff online, and people quipping about how someone or something “vanished in a puff of logic”. The only book I found more enlightening in this aspect was 1984.
Plus the joy of paradoxical sentences, “They hung in the sky the same way rocks don’t.”
I love the books too.
We could hardly tell :o .
the correct quote is “The ships hung in the sky in much the same way that bricks don’t.”
If only the last couple of books were as good as the first couple…
Best way to enjoy Adams’ style of British humor is to read the first three Hitchhikers’ books, then switch over to Terry Pratchett. 
All the wit of Adams, but with three times the depth.
You’ve got to read the Dirk Gently books to, not to mention Last Chance to See (the funniest non-fiction book I’ve ever read). These are all better than the last two Hitchhiker books, IMHO.
On the cover of the American paperback edition of THHGttG that I bought back in the early 1980s, in large friendly letters, are the words:
“DON’T PANIC! You still have time to read this book before everyone else does”
The first time I read The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy was on the way home from doing the ‘post-high-school-Europe-thing’… after having used Let’s Go: Europe for the preceeding five weeks. 
I think ‘living out of’ Let’s Go gave me a different point of view that enhanced the comedy.
After finishing Restaurant…, I suggest you stop. Just stop. Don’t bother reading the rest of the series. They’re not as good.
Always carry a towel.
