Yes, however the fifth was subtitled, "the fifth book in the increasingly inaccurately named Hitchhikers Trilogy."

I have the munchies right now, what should I eat?

Do you think I can become a professional pool player?

What has been your greatest accomplishment thus far?

How do I know when a chick is inviting me out as like a psuedo-date v. just wanting to hang? I may have pissed off (away?) two prospects in 48 hours which is really just begging for a Special Olympics medal...

If you practice hard enough.

Either putting myself through college or managing to have a (fairly) healthy long term relationship with an awesome guy that I adore.

I have no idea. Women are encouraged not to act like they want sex, so it's difficult to tell what's going on. My solution is to just ask. Example: "is this a date?"
