So long, and thanks for all the fish
Douglas Adams would be 58 today, but sadly he left us too soon. I can remember as a teenager discovering Douglas Adams thanks to an omnibus collection of the Hitchiker’s Guide novels that I received as a birthday gift. It was love at first page. I can distinctly recall sitting on our kitchen floor (I honestly have no idea why I was sitting on the floor.) forcing my mother (here, Mom, I’m writing something about you, and there’s no picture, but you won’t read this anyway since you are in Hawaii) who was busy cooking dinner to listen to me read passages aloud while tears of laughter streamed down my face. It was a few years later when I accidentally discovered the Dirk Gently books in a bookstore. I hadn’t even known of their existence...
