Clive James Has a Posse
<A HREF="http://www.clivejames.com/index.cfm">Clive James</A> has a website, which is full of stuff that'll keep you riveted to your chair.

In <I>FilmMaker</I>, Scott Macauley has written a spirited preview/interview of Richard Linklater's <I>A Scanner Darkly</I>, which he says is the first faithful film based on a Philip K. Dick novel.

Disney Does Devo
This is just wrong on so many levels.
