Hitchhiker's Guide (to the galaxy)
Other acronyms include HHGG and H2G2. It is generaly unclear if the 'G' in HHG is meant to refer to Guide or Galaxy, but Guide seems to make more sense.
ahem
This page exists because Nemo is a fan.
For the moment, it's just a list of some links he might want to chase up, and a few random ideas... :)
Memorabilia
Things a HHG fan might concievably buy if it was marketed, or make for themself.

Pattern ideas

Links

References and other notes
Guide References in other media
- Mulder (X-Files) lives in Apartment 42
- Men In Black - aliens escaping earth sing the betelgusian death anthem (from the radio series)
Coincidental(?) appearance of Guide-like elements
- The hallway mugger in Fifth Element wields a Kill-o-Zap -alike gun.
- The Husnock in Star Trek:TNG ships (episode: The Survivor, season 3) are not dissimilar to the Vogon ships of the TV series
