(To the tune of 'Battle Hymn of the Republic')

Who is the robot
that infiltrates our planet?

And plants a virus
no one sees,

But in a week
it's an empty planet,

It will be a hero
to the Beta-Thx species.

...And its name is Go-o-o-od...

(with apologies)

saw City of God last night...it is about a poverty-stricken section of Rio in Brazil...freaking hardcore...certain scenes are burned into my memory...

been reading Still Life With Woodpecker, by Tom Robbins...a friend of mine recommended it...story is a little kooky, but the allusions are brilliant...gonna read another to get a better taste...guy is almost on par with Robert Anton Wilson...
