You can have your new films based on obscure comics, I don't want 'em. Go ahead, upgrade your computer with the latest sexy hardware and install an operating system nobody but you and that guy in the office basement who smells like Cheetos understands. Take your Arcade Fire 7" and deep-fry it with a cupcake. I just found out that Robert Fagles translated Virgil's "Aeneid." I'm totally cracking that book in November 06 when it drops. OMG retired Princeton professors are so hot! This is almost as cool as the time Michael Palma translated Dante's "Inferno" into English without sacrificing the terza rima back in 03. So fetch! I can't wait 'til November. Until then, I've got Plato's "Republic" to keep me busy. Richard W. Sterling and William C. Scott are blowing my mind with their prose. Nobody can render ancient Greek as crunk as these old Dartmouth professors.
