Minor core dump

Does your brain ever reach overload? Have you ever had too many thoughts so it's hard to concentrate on a single one? Well it feels like it's reaching that point for me, so I'm dumping part of the core. - We finished watching the 1981 BBC version of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy last night. It had it's funny moments but the world view is more depressing than Marvin, the android. The story is from an atheistic/evolutionary point of view so life is basically meaningless. There answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything is 42, which isn't very helpful. In fact, it's impossible to determine what the question is. So you live and die at the mercy of randomness. Or you get sent forward in time to where the universe ends or back in time and realize that rather than being a descendent of neanderthals, you're a descendent of hairdressers, middle management, and telephone sanitizers. I think I prefer the Westminster Catechism...
