Don't panic. Just bring a towel.



Backstory

Happy National Towel Day (towelday.org) to all, a day to celebrate the life and work of Douglas Adams. And a day, of course, to remain warm, dry and calm.

happy ending message?

Contemplative says,

Not familiar with Douglas Adams either. Here I thought it meant hide your non-bikini-or-trunk readied bottoms by wearing a towel over it to the beach AND not to panic that the picnics were rained out, just bring a towel. A good read for sure! Thanks for the info.

I just read the Adams books recently, and on Friday, my school's vice-principle announced "Happy Towel Day!" over the intercom with the morning announcements, and I think only my English teacher and I actually understood and got really excited.
