News: Happy Towel Day!!!  Don't forget to carry your towel with you everywhere (yes, everywhere) you go on May 25th.  If you have a camera, snap a few photos of you and your towel, then share them with us on the "Towel Day Pictures" board.  If you don't have a camera, just borrow one from a strag.  After all, the strag will happily lend you, the hitchhiker, a camera or a dozen other items that you might accidentally have "lost".  What the strag will think is that anyone who can hitch the length and breadth of the galaxy, rough it, slum it, struggle against terrible odds, win through, and still know where his towel is is clearly someone to be reckoned with.

Did anyone catch either one of these (Holistic Detective Agency & Long Dark Teatime)?  I missed both and was wondering how well they adapted the books to radio.  Are they worth buying on CD?

I didn't quite know that this existed. That is, I knew there was a fan-made version which I haven't listened to much of yet, but if there's an official version, I've never heard of it.

I heard parts of the first episode online, and from what I could tell the actors were well chosen and I got several laughs from the bits I heard.  Unfortunately I can't speak for either of the series as a whole, but knowing that they're based on a Douglas Adams work, I'd have to say they're most likely worth buying.
