7/10. Not bad I suppose since I haven't read the books in several years.

I can't get the "not a full towel" phrase out of my head. Next time somebody says something crazy, I think I'll use it.
Child A: Will you buy me my own iPhone?
Me: Ha ha ha! Kid, you're not a full towel.
Child A: Um... I'll ask dad.

Congratulations!
Fitting, I suppose, considering your age is on the towel.
I lost, so no special Towel Day towel for me (other than the one that never arrived from Finland).

Maybe they did send it, only it's invisible. Finish invisibility towels are all the rage, I hear. |

...and then you made me relive the jealously by tweeting it  Speaking of that tweet, it was the one of two Grammar Girl related tweets I got on the same day. The other was an interesting list of tricky Grammar issues. http://www.writersdigest.com/whats-new/the-13-trickiest-grammar-hang-ups I particularly liked that idea that using they & their as singular pronouns is starting to become acceptable. |

Oh wow, that's a cool article. My husband and I were recently arguing about the "next Wednesday" thing. I love Grammar Girl.  |

It's just about that time when contests and such should be appearing here and there. I will be on the lookout. If you see one I missed, please share. |

Here is a contest from the Nottingham Royal Concert Hall in England (The Hitchhiker's Live show will be there later this year, yea, still no US shows): "Fan of HHGG? Does Towel Day mean anything to you? If it does, send a picture of you and your towel by Fri 24 May for your chance to win an official HHGG tshirt and don’t forget to book for the show when it comes to Nottingham Royal Concert Hall on Fri 15 Nov. Send your entries to towelday2013@gmail.com with TRCH in the subject line and remember, DON’T PANIC!" Shirts can be seen here: http://www.hitchhikerslive-shop.com/products.php?cat=clothingI didn't find anything to indicate that you had to live in England to win, but then we all know how my towel from Finland turned out.  |
