The Road was also an excellent movie, equally dark, but with a less heartening story.

My favorite post-apocalyptic movie is A Boy and His Dog, based on the Harlan Ellison story.

When I taught in a school of teenage boys who all thought they were hardcore and loved to freestyle...I whipped their asses.
You see, freestyle is a parlor trick, like a lot of things. And I'd school them every time.
Wasn't hard.
Hell, once I quoted Wyclef Jean (before their time, basically, sure), and they thought I came up with that sh*t on my own.

I think the gansta prog thread is lacking in half naked ladies shaking their booties...

As far as that goes...yeah, that's the correct order to listen once you like them, but I'd say to start with either Angel's Egg or You...seems like most people enjoy those two a bit more than Flying Teapot.

Okay, will try to get Angel's Egg first since it's cheapest  .

The trailer for that looked enticing, but I honestly- literally- tried reading the book five times. I'd get to page six and quit. Either the dude can't write, or he's f**king with us.

True point June.
May cause havoc but anyone else think I should show that to Zebra and suggest a counter rap?

You know it's a difficult book when you have to read it for high school English 
Cormac McCarthy definitely writes on different levels than we can comprehend.

Although... how do you make ladies shaking' their booties progressive?
Turns them into alien prostitutes too?

I'm afraid of where this may lead, but he probably wouldn't care in the slightest

I just bought the book but haven't been able to read it yet. Gotta finish WE and Blinking With Fists which is a book of poems by Billy Corgan.

I believe it was the same guy who wrote the novel that No Country for Old Men is based on. I've never read anything by him, so I don't know.

 Fine, deny your fans of their wishes.

Fans deny me their money (and bodies). So I don't care.
