    Don't forget, Towel Day tomorrow!

    In a harsh universe, you need to know where your towel is.

    Carry it with you tomorrow in support of Towel Day 2010!

    Feel free to post pictures of you carrying your towel.

    This important announcement is brought to you in memory of the indescribably amazing Douglas Adams.
    Go to work, get married, have some kids, pay your taxes, pay your bills, watch your tv, follow fashion, act normal, obey the law and repeat after me: "I am free."

    Its a day in tribute to The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams. It has nothing to do with Peanuts. A towel could save your life after all.

    Traveling with your towel. It feels a bit like being drunk.

    What's so wrong with being drunk?

    Gosh, you sound like you need to get in touch with your inner child and find a sense of fun in the bizarre!



    Most people carry them in their handbag or briefcase. Read the book for guidance.

    There are at least 42 events around the world celebrating Towel Day 2010.
