P.S.This article, linked in Glenn’s post, brings to mind nothing so much as the Uruk-hai. “The old world will burn in the fires of industry… we will drive the machine of war with the sword and the spear and the iron fist of the Orc…”
P.P.S. I initially made a typo above. It briefly said “the iron fish of the Orc.” LOL!
You know what sucks? Being a night person on the West Coast. No late sports, no real up-all-night cities like NYC, and very little late-night blogging (Brendan’s late night posts notwithstanding. Sometimes i wonder when you sleep man.)
It doesn’t suck as much as, say, a shattered hip. But it still sucks.

And if you can’t get half-man, half-ape… half-pig will do.

“I’m tellin ya the pigman is alive. The governments been experimenting with pigmen since the fifties.”
