The Fifth Beatle


Well, I wish I had a bigger copy of the original to work from, but unfortunately mine is like 9000 miles away so this'll have to do. Heh, spent most of the time with the clone brush just rearranging flowers and stuff, and was ready to be done by the time I was adding in Topato himself. Would've liked to give him a Sgt. Pepper uniform, but I don't think there's enough pixels there to do it. Hope you guys like it. I registered just to post this, heh -- sure I'm not the only one to do that. WIGU rocks.

Yeah, the bowling shirt rocked. Make a note of this, Jeffrey. It is much easier to blend in amongst bi-peds if one dons a bowling shirt.

I got the text from Here. (The page linked page contains a translation of the Quran(I think), which is a sin, if you care about such things.)
I origionaly left out the link to the text because its kinda mundane. But I can't read Arabic so I have to go with whatever google turns up...

Congratulations on knowing Russian, but I've read the book and the Nadsat word is Horrorshow. Nadsat uses corruptions of Russian words. They don't pronounce "moloko" right either, in the movie. Learned this last November, in St. Petersburg.

Don't worry. Hardly anyone actually reads that one. They just watch the movie, which isn't nearly as good and attracts a completely different fan base.

I don't know...I know quite a few people who have both seen the movie of "Clockwork Orange" and read the book. Course we've all read "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" as well.

There's a bar in NYC which models itself and names itself after the "Korova Milk Bar" from clockwork orange. Cept they serve alcohol instead of drugs.

that place is boring and even more overpriced than the normal nyc bar... though they do have about 500 tvs (which were playing snatch both times i was there).

i know you can, but you can also read hebrew, and it would be great if there were a good translation, because the book is written in an idiomatic made-up composite language, and it would be interesting.

Oh, yeah, Fear and Loathing, too. I only watched the movie to begin with because Goats had that five-strip parody and I didn't want to go on without knowing what they were talking about. Good thing it had it, too.

Oh, and American Psycho.

Any other books I'm supposed to read having seen the movie?

Things are always better in the original language, especially when they rely on it.
