Subject: So Long DNA, and Thanks for all the Memories... ( 1 of 1 ) Posted by Jason Bertovich A sunny day can suddenly seem grey, for a great writer has gone away. I felt suddenly saddened, when I heard the news today. What had been a wonderful sunny day suddenly had a great deal of joy drained from it. Adams was one of those authors who gave me the love of the written word I have today. It almost seems Karmic that a day before I start my new job selling books, one of the greatest comic writers of thsi generation has left us forever. Even now, as I open new books and delve into new worlds of imagination, I cannot but help of think of Adams and how his wit and imagination reeled me in and never let go. Everytime I see a ratty bathrobe, a ungodly alcoholic concoction, or a well-used and beloved towel, I will think of that wry grin behind those even more wry words. God bless and rest in peace. I can only think of one proper quote of his that seems a fitting tribute: "What on earth are you two doing?" - Arthur "It's an Ancient Beatelguesean Death-anthem, it means 'after this, things can only get better.'" - Ford, Hitchhikers TV Program episode 4. I certainly do hope things are better DNA, because they now seem a little less surreal here. |
