Don' t Panic ! (25)
Hello, The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy is nearing it's last page..alas oh well there's something in the pipeline a small encore and a bigger one..sort of later, for now here's the penultimate Fit 25, but first what happened last week,
Arthur is still trying to gain advice on the planet Hawalius, but when he finally leaves the planet, the spaceship he's on develops "a major glitch" just as they jump into hyperspace. Meanwhile, on Earth, Tricia McMillan agrees to go with the Grebulons and work out a system of astrology that would be valid on the planet Persephone (Rupert), in exchange for exclusive rights to the story.
Back in The Guide's offices, Zarniwoop Vann Harl, the new editor of the guide, asks Ford to be his restaurant critic. He explains that there is a new Guide, aimed at families rather than hitchhikers, and they plan to make one and sell it in billions of billions of alternate worlds. Ford steals the Dine-a-Charge and Ident-i-Eze cards from him, then hacks into the accountancy system. The universe there is equated with the artificial universe inside Zarniwoop's office, and Ford discovers Zaphod, in a shack by the beach, claiming he has been there on his own for a month. Zaphod claims that the Presidency and the Krikkitmen were just a distraction, and that they have "shrunk the Vortex and given it the voice of that Lintilla chick" in order to create the new Guide. The episode ends with Ford going to floor 23, and being forced to jump out of a window, in order to escape from Zarniwoop Vann Harl, who is revealed as a disguised Vogon.

ReplyDeleteHello! I was searching for lyrics of Zazou's Sahara Blues (Brussels) and came across your blog and comments re: Hector. Cool Rho-Xs site. Would you happen to know WHERE I can obtain it? Thanks! FogCitizen.
ReplyDeleteHello Fogcitizen, i assume you mean the lyrics as the album is available-its evenbeen rematered recently. As for the lyrics they are mostly based on Rimbauds poetry so maybe thats why its not very available, i came across Do Something Right Lyrics here

Dear Rho,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your reply and recommended link. I am familiar with Rimbaud and the lyrics to I'll Strangle You. It's the other song, Sahara Blue (Brussels), that I was searching for, sans success. I could not decipher some of her soft spoken words. Cool song, FYI. Thanks again! Fogcitizen. :) I've bookmarked your blog. :)

ReplyDeleteI've really been enjoying the Hitch-hiker's Guide. I'd like to convert the files to mp3 to play in iTunes. What bit-rate are the ogg files? I'm guessing they're lower than your usual 224/320. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteHello Skylark, glad you enjoyed THHGTTG, and yes you are right, being largely text/vocal bit rate is considerably lower..when you play the ogg files you would see they are about 90+ Kb,converting them to 96kb mp3 would be my advice.
ReplyDeletebest of luck,
