BW9: March Author of the Month - Douglas Adams

 


Happy Sunday!  It's time to say goodbye to February and hello to March. March is Irish American Heritage month, as well as Nation Peanut Month, National Craft Month, and National Women's History Month.  Hmm, let's see. Read something historical by an Irish American Woman while knitting and eating peanuts. *grin* 

This week we have February 26th which is Carpe Diem day, the 27th is No Brainer Day, the 28th is National Chili Day,  March 1st  is World Compliment Day, the 2nd is Old Stuff Day, the 3rd is I want You to be Happy Day, and the 4th is Huge a GI Day.  So be sure to seize the day, eat chili, compliment at least three people, do something different, make someone happy, and show some appreciation for the men and women in our armed forces.  

Plus our March author of the month is Douglas Adams, whose birthday is March 11, 1952.  He is best known for his Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series.  My brother introduced me to Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy way back in the 1980's and once I read it, went on to consume The Restaurant at the End of the Universe;  Life, The Universe and Everything; So Long, and Thanks for all the Fish; and Mostly Harmless.  Plus his other books Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency, The Long Dark Tea Time of the Soul, and Douglas Adam's Starship Titanic by Terry Jones.  I'm looking forward to reading them all over again. 

This week our post is sponsored by the Letter I.  How fortuitous as I stands for Irish, industrious, Iambic, Innuendo,  Irony, and Imagination. 

Happy reading!
