John Hodgman at Radio & Tv Correspondents' Dinner

Oh, right there's a reason that he's a minor television celebrity. I love Hodgman. That was great. And while I too would fail the Dune nerd tests, I pass the Hitchhiker's Guide tests with flying colors.

A true test of Hitchhiker's nerd-dom is whether you know whose idea it was to ask Prosser to lie in front of the bulldozer.

In the book or the computer game? In the book/radio show it's Ford, in the computer game it's "Arthur" or whatever you call the player character.
Unless you mean "whose idea" in the "not Douglas Adams" sense, where I will bow to superior nerd-dom.

Excuse me. I was mistaken. In the radio show Arthur says it. But in the book it's Ford.

And to try and clarify by "Pass with flying colors" I meant "Humiliate myself by getting a simple question wrong".

the important thing here is that we are picking other books and saying they're better than dune. i'd like to continue that for as long as possible.

I'm sad I got all the references except for... princess urulan? I don't know.

Princess Irulan is the quasi-narrator/historian character in Dune.

I too, feel torn between the two worlds of jock and nerd. 5 stars for mentioning "hallucinogenic vomit" in front of the president.
