Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the Galaxy lies a small unregarded yellow sun. Orbiting this at a distance of roughly ninety-two million miles is an utterly insignificant little blue green planet whose ape-descended life forms are so amazingly primitive that they still think digital watches are a pretty neat idea.
―Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy

Heaven and oh, he died too young. Did I ever tell you my father was the original Slartibartfast on radio and television? Well, he was!
Oh I know!
I remember your dad as Slartibartfast!! 🙂 Such a great character. I grew up on British miniseries–nobody does them better. 🙂
OMG! How boring of me to repeat myself. 🙂
No, you aren’t repeating yourself… I stalked you. 🙂
