My wife and I LOVE Douglas Adams. Rather a quite very a whole lot. And, we feel the portable media is ready for a updated tribute.

This is an audio and visual and textual tribute to the greatest book ever written by a human.

THHGTTG.

Its called: The Alien Hitchhiker's Guide To Amerika. a.k.a The Very Very Oh So Very Rough Guide To Life On Earth And Living It For Less Than 10 USD* per day.1

You will, if not reading this in one of the Galactic Base Language units, may notice some spelling and grammatical errors, but please bear with us, this is entirely reasonable, as, in this line of work the logistical side of our operations are incredible, as we had to employ over 10,000 separate sub contractors from over 7000 separate home worlds, most of which, do not eat, breath, or even use the same types of physical media to communicate as the last one did, and, a universal constant of Sub Contractors are:

THEY ARE LAZY AND NEVER ON TIME. 

*1This is under .7 Galactic Standard Units, so somewhere round the price of an Alterian Megadonkey Hand Job on the Pleasure Rims of Fucklactica 8.

This project will be rocking on WITH OR WITHOUT YOUR HELP AND INPUT.

The ebook is to be formatted, for Kindle Fire and related outer pan galactic media devices. Even ~those~ ones. You know the ones. The rudey ones. 

The audio is flac recorded to the best of my ability with the kit I have at this juncture in timespace.

Here is a link to the preview ebook version, and the 19th iteration over the past 64 hours, of The Audio. 

Its about to be 20th as I made some mistakes :D 

Deadlines? WE DONT NEED NO STINKING DEADLINES~! DO I LOOK DEAD? OR LIKE A LINE?

Thought not. 

I look like a Frood. A Hoopy Hoopy Frood. 

Now, why do we want your money? Simple. New recording kit:  20$ the rest, something advertisingy. I have not a single clue how much that sort of thing goes for so guessed at about 120$ for promotional junk and something a bit viral I can try and pull off. 

Not to worry if it never reaches the target, and you thought that this looked like a fun project, as WEMAGONADOITANYWAYS!

PS: This is not a work of copy paste, or a slaptogether of other peoples gear OR even a derogatory work.

I honest LOVE Mr. Adams. Quite a lot. And wish this to be a tribute. 

Its not the Best Electronic Guide TO Life, The Universe & Everything. 

Just a tribute.

It does use the word fuck, quite a lot mind you. Almost gratuitously so.
