More sugar... I want to see it all over the floor when i eat one... And
big chunks all over them... Like the Hostess ones that make you sick
after eating the hole box full in a car ride and looking down at your
sugar coated lap....

If one includes "Young Zaphod Plays it Safe" we have 5 books and a short

Oh no! Star Wars will alienate its entire fan base by making the term
"Star Wars trilogy" obsolete!

Long Dark Tea-Time was good, and the Hitchhiker's Guide is unmissable.
I think you can d/l the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy from somewhere,
but it's more comfortable reading the book.

Not if you have a Palm. :)
But I'm going to guess that even if you can download it from somewhere, it's
no different than downloading stolen software and/or mp3's from somewhere.

I've actually found the MP3 version around on the 'Net several times. I
checked one of the files out. Weird book. I don't get it. Something about
God self-destructing, and something about a translating fish... IIRC.

Read on.
What you've come accross are probably the Recordings made for Radio. They
come back on Radio 4 every few years and are so good you can listen to them
time an time again without getting board.
