In anticipation of the upcoming movie I decided to read the Hitchhiker's Guide (yes I know I am the last person on the planet to do it) and finally figure out what that 42 thingie is. Off the bat the book is ridiculosly funny, and gets better as the plot thikens. Looking forward to my train ride tomorrow! One of Douglas Adams' remarkable humor skills is coming up with funny names and definitions. In the first chapter we encounter a thing called "Hooloovoo", which is a "superintelligent shade of blue". It also happens to be that I am occasionally a sucker for domain names :). Well, apparently I was not the first one to think of this - Hooloovoo.com was already spoken for - but for the price of a movie ticket Hooloovoo.org ain't bad either!
