A Lazarus Taxon (Dvd) ~ Tortoise

5.0 out of 5 stars Well worth the money, Sep 19 2006
Fellow Tortoise fan's rejoice! A Lazarus Taxon has two c.d's of un-released tracks, one c.d of remixes, and one c.d with music video's and live footage. Many, if not all of the song's were done in Tortoises early days, (before Jeff Parker joined) and if I may say so myself I actually believe that these song's are more creative than their later releases, such as 'Standards' or 'It's all around you'.

You won't be disapointed. (If you are disapointed, your a moron and didn't deserve to see this work of unique art in the… Read more
A Short History of Nearly Everything by Bill Bryson

A short history of nearly everything. What else can really be said about this book? Well written and thoughtful, this book can be read by anyone and appreciated by anyone. I have always loved Bryson's dark yet sarcastic sense of humour, and this book has no shortage of it. Although the actual text of this book covers a wide variety of subjects and interesting facts that you have probablly never hear anywhere else, I would deem this a bathroom book, mainly because the subjects aren't all that grabbing. If it weren't for Bryson's unique style of writing that I have come to love over the years, I would have to say that I wouldn't have picked this book up of the shelves. They now have 'A… Read more
