Sheep
That's what you get for pretending the danger's not real.
Meek and obedient you follow the leader
Down well trodden corridors into the valley of steel.
What a surprise!
A look of terminal shock in your eyes.
Now things are really what they seem.
No, this is not a bad dream."

92 Degrees Fahrenheit
I have always wanted to know where the sound bite in the beginning of the song "92 Degrees" by Siouxsie and the Banshees came from. While I was reading the comments posted for the video, I learned that it came from the movie "It Came from Outer Space" written by Ray Bradbury. As I continued to read more comments I learned that the line of dialogue is very similar to a Ray Bradbury short story titled "Shopping For Death". So I search for Shopping For Death and found out that Alfred Hitchcock used it for one of his episodes of "Alfred Hitchcock Presents". Siouxie + Ray Bradbury + Alfred Hitchcock = an awesome combination.

Robert Newman's History of Oil
Robert's stand-up act examines the history of the last 100 years or so but putting oil center-stage. Brilliant!
