What's the deal with "42" ?

 

You could say it is my lucky number. Actually, a wacky classmate in high school named David White used to use that number for everything and it just resonated with me. Years later I saw a video of the BBC series "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", created from the series of books by Douglas Adams - wacky stuff, very funny. I won't go into detail, but the Galaxy's most powerful computer, named Deep Thought, took 10,000 years to compute the "Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything". And that answer was...42 !!! When I saw that I was amazed, and thought "I knew that!"

42 is the cosmic connection.

Douglas Adams passed away in 2001. RIP
