Tomorrow is Towel Day, so here are a few Hitchhiker's links...
A fan animation of the original guide entry on towels. An epic remix of "The Journey of the Sorceror" complete with excerpts of guide narration by Douglas Adams himself. Another one, but with more of a techno spin and less narration. An astronaut on the International Space Station celebrates last year's Towel Day by reading a book excerpt and wearing a "Don't Panic" T-shirt. Numberphile talks about the cultural impact of 42 and discusses some of the number's mathematical properties. I'll bet none of you had ever heard of a pronic number before today, much less a primary pseudoperfect number or a Harshad number. Wikipedia gives a number of other properties of 42.
