Believe it or not, I have never played it. Unless you count playing a D and D computer game at a friend's house once. Or watching the animated TV series back in the 80s.
I played a great deal "back in the day" . . . my only advice would be to be conservative. You don't want to be responsible for killing your friend's character! So hide behind lots of rocks and trees!

I tried to play in college.. my boyfriend was "teaching" me how to play. Thing is, he'd do stuff to kill off my character almost as soon as we'd get started so it made it hard to learn. Competitive jerk.
One of the webcomics (Penny-Arcade) that I read has been mentioning D&D in their news posts recently.
Here's the link http://www.penny-arcade.com/2008/5/30/ from the first day. Just work your way forward. Some of it seems pretty interesting. They even do a pod cast of game.

Ditto that and add to it reading the "Find your own adventure" books. Those were the ish!

I used to love the Find your own adventure books!
My friend wound up getting off of work early so I barely got to play. Not fair.
