May 25th: World Towel Day!

Is there anything that is not celebrated or remembered?

War, peace, tragic events, disease outbreak, political events and so on are been celebrated or remembered. Some hilarious, some serious...

Some of these events would make one wonder and ask: 'Wharrrh?! Well... this is one of those days.

Today is remembered as 'World Towel Day', and everyone is reminded not to forget his/her towel.

Towel Day is an annual celebration on the 25th of May, as a tribute to the late author Douglas Adams (1952-2001). On that day, fans around the universe carry a towel in his honour.
