And there's a pile of other films I'm kinda dying to see as well. Like "The Man who Killed Don Quixote" by Terry Gilliam, who's bad films tend to beat most directors best films. I suspect there will be more here than has met most reviewers eyes. And there's "The HappyTime Murders", which reminds me of "Meet the Feebles", Peter Jackson's twisted take on the Muppets, and there are a few books, "Infinite Jest", By David Foster Wallace, and "The Unbitten Elbow", by Sigizmund Krzhizhanovsky, which will be a little tougher to find, and anything by Gerald Murnane, as I've read some reviews and am a little bit curious...
This will catch me up, there's a dozen books still to read on my shelf, a dozen movies downloaded onto a defunct computer which I may never get to see, but maybe I just gotta breeze on and try something new...

Right out of "No Country for Old Men", Buzzfeed's got an excellent article on "Mano Negra", one of the Cartel's most notorious hitmen/Serial Killers. Which goes to prove, as with Bruce McArthur or Robert Pickton, that if you choose the right minority the police really aren't going to bother you.
What is scary is how ordinary he is, and his comment "True Evil has a face you know and a Voice you Trust".

This was a good, long read on the State of the Nation. The 9.9% of the Haves VS the 90% of the rest of us, it's not just the 1% that's the problem, it's the whole fucking system.
