http://polaris.fucksheep.org/boc_astronomy_w_stephen_king.mp3[1] After reading the whole 'Dark Tower' series by Stephen King over the last week, I find this nostalgic bit of music. It is not exactly connected, but, for sure, interesting. The aforementioned novels are possibly a bit of pop culture, but I enjoyed them immensely. The characters have a resonant depth, and when each of them died, I was gripped with emotional pain. Maybe it breaks no new ground like James Joyce or Tolkien did, but it is, nonetheless, gripping. When Jake died, I cried. And I don't usually cry. Oy: "I Ake!" That could be 'Bye Jake' or 'I ache'. If you haven't read them, it would make no sense, probably. Oh, by the way, here is the original: http://polaris.fucksheep.org/boc_astronomy.mp3[2]

Tony:
Don't post spoilers, damn it!
Me:
Wanna beat me over the head with a mallet or what?
Tony:
I will beat on you with a plastic bat or walrus.
It was no mallet, but a magna of illusion.
Me:
At least it wasn't the Forge of Vulcan.
