This is hopefully the fixed version i've been wanting to do. This is my tribute to the great author Douglas Adams. I discovered his books at the local library and fell in love with them. I was so happy there was going to be a movie. And was hoping for him to be writing more. Then i discovered something else upon visiting his website. He had died some time ago. Along with the links to the charities he supported, the smiling face of D.N.A shown on a blank page with the dates of his life below. He said goodbye, just as I had said my first hello...

Music: Beatles (his favourite) Hello,Goodbye

  • Long Dark Tea Time of the Soul is one of the best books ever.

  • I <3 that one too! But i liked the 1st Dirk Gently book more...

  • :) Yeah. Just the first hillarious chapter about the ugliness of airports is so well thoughtout.

  • Gotta love the "First rule of breaking into a house: don't answer the phone" bit

  • i love your tribute to DNA!!!! i FEEL you... he said goodbye, before you could say Hello!!! sO sad!!!!

  • If Adams went to mythological "hell" for not believing mythological "god" then I'd much rather be with him than sit on a cloud.

  • His memory lives on with all of us, and those who share his magic with others and a new generation and those who write stories w/ Adams as a mentor of sorts he will remain a part of our education as long as we continue to share his gifts with others

  • A time when men were men and small furry creatures from Alpha Centari were small furry creatures from Alpha Centari. Thanks for posting this viddy very moving he has been an integral part of my life since childhood, I'm 44 now, I miss 42:(

  • Watching this, I finally figured out what words I want on the tattoo I'm getting. I have decided on a small peace symbol with wings. Now I want "Don't Panic" worked into the symbol, along with the number 42! Thanks! I'm more determined than ever to get it done!

  • oh my...........you made rememeber this year i'm 42!!!

    thanks ;)

    namaste.

  • The same thing happened to me when I discovered his books. I Wikipedia'd him, and found out he was dead.

    We miss you, Douglas Adams

  • He's not gone... You think a person with so much energy, so big love to life can be stoped by death? Oh no...

    He's sitting face to face with (the) god(s) right now in Heaven's cafeteria explaining them how he created an entire universe without godly powers... He did.

    Rest in peace Mr. Adams and please give Marvin's soul a hug.. If he had any.

  • That was an amazing video

  • haha, sure is the 25th

  • too late... officially towel day is on may 25...
