The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy will get a second chance in the movie theaters this spring. Douglas Adams' classic novel got the Hollywood treatment and I’m a little worried. Well, as worried as I am whenever Hollywood turns a great book into a movie. Their success rate is not all that high.
I had read in early 2004 that Mos Def would be playing the role of Ford Prefect and I was intrigued, so I will be anxiously waiting to see the final product. The newly posted trailer at Amazon looks pretty spiffy.
It has been over six years since I read The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy (Thanks Klever!) and I wanted to read it again but it seems that all of the library's copies have come up missing or damaged. What’s up with that? Maybe it is a sinister plot put in motion by Amazon.
Stuff to Steal: Somebody wanna pass me a stolen copy so I can get my read on?
I don't think you have a Half Priced Books in Toledo, but I picked up the "The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide"( All Six Stories) there for $5.98. One big hardcover book that was never read and was probably sold to buy alcohol. You want me to pick you up a copy?
I would appreciate that greatly!
