Look What I Found
Don’t forget that Free comic book day is Saturday. I am planning on taking my son again this year. It was a lot of fun seeing my son pick out a few books last year, and a big dusting off some old feelings walking back into the comic book shop.
It isn’t just about the free stuff…pick up a few books too while you are there! Kill a Tree!
How about a link to the closest thing to the “Guide” that we have today. Wikipedia.
Let see what the Wikipedia has to say about The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.
At the top of my site I have changed my graphic in keeping with my HHGG day (At least it is HHGG day in my world today) I had some people email me and ask where I got the pic of the Bable fish.
I got it from the BBC’s hitchhiker site. They have images and all sorts of things related to the the radio and tv shows.
Check it out here.
The picture is on the “Picture gallery” link on the left.
In keeping with my HHGG only posting today to celebrate the Movie of same name coming out…I find this from digg….
Gear Live | The Final Cut: A Look at The Hitchhiker’s Guide Movie and History
Time for another weekly column, Gear Live style. This week she gives us a bit of background on The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy:
This is a nice tribute to Douglas Adams…Seems like I am having a HHGG only posting day.
FilmForce: The Hitchhiker’s Guide to Douglas Adams
Friends and colleagues — including Terry Jones, Neil Gaiman, & Stephen Fry — remember the man behind the Guide.
BBC – Radio 4 – The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy – Steve Meretzky
In 1984 Douglas Adams got together with Steve Meretzky of Infocom to create the Hitchhiker’s Adventure Game.
In this interview Steve explains how the project evolved.
If you haven’t seen googlesightseeing.com, basically he is posting pictures of landmarks and such that he is finding with Google Maps Satellite images.
Some of the pictures that this guy is finding are awesome…so I decided to find something of my own.
This is Carowinds. An amusment park that just about everyone that had been a teenager in this area has worked at some time or another.

Check out this photogallery of homemade costumes for a costume contest at Celebration III.
They are a lot of fun to look at.
I thought of myself as a Star Wars Fan, but my status may be dwindling as we speak. These are true fans..no, actually I would say “Star Wars Freaks” (And I mean that as a complement).
At the recent Star Wars Celebration III the entire 501st Legion got together for a group picture.
I have to think that this has to be a logistical nightmare. One to get everyone together… and Two is that you have to handle the people that all want to be Darth Vader. I wonder this because remember when we were all kids and everyone wanted to be Indiana Jones or everyone wanted to be Luke…
Cool picture… even if there are about 15 Darth Vaders in it.
Click on the link below and have a look a the large picture that they have of all the members.

THE WORLD’S DEFINITIVE IMPERIAL COSTUMING ORGANIZATION
I have been wanting to put up a photoblog for sometime, and it is finally up.
I have been taking pictures for a while, and now that I have a good Digital setup I am going to try to tackle more. I am learning so any constructive feedback is appreciated.
In Rock Hill, SC (my home town) there are a lot of great landscapes, buildings and mills that I have been wanting to photograph for a long time, and that is what I am mostly going to share here, but I don’t want to limit it to just that..So who knows what will show up.
A link is below in the ‘Links’ section labeled Photoblog or you can go here. There is also RSS goodness too…
I will try to update daily.
