First Lines: Jonathan Swift - Gulliver's Travels

The author of these Travels, Mr. Lemuel Gulliver, is my ancient and intimate friend; there is likewise some relation between us on the mother's side.

New Stuff: Evi Vine



Great debut album from my MySpace/Facebook friend Evi Vine!

Conquest of the Planet of the Apes (1972)



In a futuristic world that has embraced ape slavery, Caesar, the son of the late simians Cornelius and Zira, surfaces after almost twenty years of hiding out from the authorities, and prepares for a slave revolt against humanity.

Cheaply made, but effective continuation of the sci-fi saga.
