May 25th celebrates Douglas Adams, author of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. It is celebrated around the world as Towel Day. "On that day, fans around the universe carry a towel in his honour."
Brick didn't want to be left out, so he plunged right into an omnibus edition--determined not to miss a thing...or an obscure reference. He was at the library a long time. It took him 42 straight days! When the lights went out at night he just waited until opening time the next day. The library staff didn't seem to notice him at all. He just sat there reading like a bump on a log with a book.

What a hoopy frood!
He had his towel by his side the whole time. One might ask, why did he stay and read the edition in one, unending session? Couldn't he go home at night and come back later?
Almost done? Ready to throw in the towel?
He didn't have a bookmark and wanted to keep his place. That's Brick, practical to the end.
