Manifesto

Become a BlackPacker

You think there is nothing better than doing the Killian – Baker tour and spend the first part of your profit on a good glass of whisky. Well, there is: Sharing aforementioned good glass of whisky and some of your favorite cock-and-bull stories with a fellow brethren.

Rules of blackpacking:

  1. Always bring your towel1
  2. Neither trade in slaves nor support any kind of slavery. The galaxy is a place of freedom and opportunities, do not deprive others of theirs.
  3. Roam the galaxy, make a living
  4. Support your brethren.

1 … a towel has immense psychological value. For some reason, if a strag (strag: nonhitchhiker) discovers that a hitchhiker has his towel with him, he will automatically assume that he is also in possession of a toothbrush, washcloth, soap, tin of biscuits, flask, compass, map, ball of string, gnat spray, wet-weather gear, space suit etc., etc. Furthermore, the strag will then happily lend the hitchhiker any of these or a dozen other items that the hitchhiker might accidentally have “lost”. What the strag will think is that any man who can hitch the length and breadth of the galaxy, rough it, slum it, struggle against terrible odds, win through, and still knows where his towel is, is clearly a man to be reckoned with.
