Brian425 0 #1 April 13, 2006 I need help finding the name of a character in the Hitchhikers guide to the Galaxy. Who is the truck driver who is always driving in the rain. I think the "God of Wind and Rain" nickname is too long. I might try to shortend it. Thanks, Brian 5 DAY FORECAST Thursday Rain 71°F (22°C) | 41°F (5°C) Friday Rain 62°F (17°C) | 44°F (7°C) The only time you should look down on someone is when you are offering them your hand.

sundevil777 94 #6 April 13, 2006 I don't remember that in the hitchiker's guide. Are you sure that may not have been The long, dark teatime of the soul?People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jceman 1 #14 April 14, 2006 QuoteIts not from Hitchikers Guide its from a Terry Pratchett book called 'Bad Omens'. BZZT! WRONG ANSWER! Thanks for playing, and try again sometime. From the dust jacket of So Long, And Thanks For All The Fish: Here and now in the best adventure yet, we mistakenly meet: Rob McKenna, an unknown Rain God who has categorized 231 types of precipitation, none of which he likes ... Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
