  • Mine aren't quite so clever, but: About a Farmer Boy: On Saturday Marcus woke up at the crackle of dawn. It was plowing time! All the town would join together in the fields, clearing stones from the pastures, and sing, their hearts lifting in a rousing chorus: "Rape me! Rape me, my friend! Rape me! Rape me again!" His own heart was light and airy, for he remembered what his Father had told him of Kirk O'Bain and the wonderful freedom of his generation. At Swim Mao II Birds: He has tasted of the cressed watercress, O Reverend Sun Myung Moon. Driven into the greeny green he is, O madly mad Master of (yeah, I'm bad at this). See also: Their Eyes Were Watching Life After God To Kill a Mockingbird, Wish Me Luck, Portrait of the Artist as a Young Girl, Interrupted.
  • The title of this post is what really gets me going.
  • Dear lord some of these are funny. "Captain Cryptonomnicon's Mandolin" and "The Joy Luck Fight Club" had a special appeal. I quickly glanced upon my shelves and saw "The Many Coloured Hound of the Baskervilles". Sherlock Holmes is transported to a prehistoric era...
  • Fantastic. I really wanted to start mixing media, however, not just limit it to books... Love Actually in the Time of Cholera, The Lost World According to Garp, My So-Called Life of Pi, The Blues Brothers Karamazov...
  • The Quest for Firestarter Competing tribes of early humans search for and fight over Drew Barrymore across the plains of prehistoric Virginia.
  • More.
  • Wolof, laughed til I hurt after encountering The Three Billy Goats Budd, I expect they will haunt me for some time.
