Towel Day

This year, The Galactic HitchHikers Association had decided to hold the annual Towel Day festival on Omicron Theta.

According to the Guide, Omicron Theta had once been a planet covered with jungles and forests, until a massive life-sucking snow-flake shaped entity had, well, sucked the life out of it. Now it was a dreary place, with dead plants and grey soil the same color as the grey sky. According to Ford, it was perfect for the festival, but Arthur was having a hard time believing him.

Despite the dull surrounding, everyone seemed to be having a great time. Disaster Area was playing on a nearby planet and could be heard quite easily. There were a few people trying to sell towels that said a verity of things, and Arthur had considered buying one, but Ford had said that they were rip offs. People were dancing and talking and laughing and doing almost anything else you could think of. Most of them were hitchhikers, but some had just come to celebrate towels.

There was also a lot of alcohol, and Arthur had spent a great deal of time wondering where it had come from, since the only thing being sold was towels. He had also kept himself occupied by figuring out what day it would be on Earth. He came up with Friday, May 25. He wasn't sure about the year though, because of all the time traveling he'd been doing lately, but he guessed around 2007.

He wanted to tell Ford about this mathematical discovery, but he was currently talking to a woman wearing only a towel that barley covered all that it needed to. They both seemed to be enjoying the conversation, and Arthur wondered if that had anything at all to do with Ford's pheromone trick.

I hope this isn't as corny as I think it is. Anyway, May 25 is actually Towel Day, to celebrate Douglas Adams, h2g2 and towels. This is my way of celebrating, apart from wearing my towel all day and watching the T.V. show straight through. Happy Towel Day!!!!
