Why do you assume that I have "a tiny view of the world and can't even look outside the box"? I've lived in the former Soviet Union and I do not "unabashedly support the American government in...

I remember watching "Bulworth" back when it first came out and thinking that it was an interesting commentary on society and American politics. Now that I've seen "Network", I...
Reading Eric Paras' (not me...I swear!) "Foucault 2.0: Beyond Power and Knowledge" is a great way of understanding how Foucault's focus on and understanding of certain important concepts (especially...
I've tried reading Boswell's "Life of Johnson" a few times, but I've never had the patience to get very far into it. I'm sure I could finish it if I were in "the hole" for a year and a half.

I've watched quite a few movies this week:
"The King of Kong" -- 9/10
Donkey Kong champion Billy Mitchell is one of the funniest characters from a documentary I've ever seen. Only an arrogant...

I wouldn't exactly call Solzhenitisyn a hero, as some in this thread are. He did suffer greatly at the hands of Soviet totalitarianism, but he wasn't an advocate of democracy. He was a monarchist. In...
"Love Is Colder Than Death" -- 6/10
I really enjoyed some of Fassbinder's other films, especially "The Marriage of Maria Braun", but this movie was very uneventful and overly stylized. I believe...
"Manteca" -- Red Garland Trio
"The 120 Days of Sodom" by Marquis de Sade
Ayn Rand.
"Cool As Ice" (starring Vanilla Ice) was easily the worst movie I've ever seen. It included the classic line "Drop that zero and get with the hero!" It's so bad that it's fun to watch!
In the liner notes of Rage Against the Machine's album "Evil Empire", they included a large picture of recommended books. Among the authors they recommend books by are: James Joyce, James Baldwin,...

I would add Jean-Jacques Rousseau's "Confessions" as well.
I picked up "Debunking 9/11 Myths: Why Conspiracy Theories Can't Stand Up to the Facts" (ed. by David Dunbar & Brad Reagan) today. I bought it because I've had several people recently mention that...
Try "Absurdistan" by Gary Shteyngart. It's short, easy to read, and very funny!
I would recommend Jean-Paul Sartre's "Words", Richard Wright's "Black Boy", Benjamin Franklin's autobiography, Nabokov's "Speak, Memory", and Emma Goldman's "Living My Life".
"All Blues" -- Miles Davis
