Celebrate Today by Drinking a Glass of Moloko


Today is the birthday of a little guy called "A Clockwork Orange". 31 years ago this film crawled out of the vagina of Anthony Burgess, but only after director Stanley Kubrick planted the magic film-seed. The film "A Clockwork Orange" was the love child of Burgess, who wrote the novel in 1962, and Kubric, who was a director and only took on the film after realizing that nothing better was going to come along.

Alex DeLarge, the main character, is a young man who loves classical music, rape, and ultra-violence -the act of unjustified, purely-pleasurable (for the one doing the beating) violence. Fortunately his friends, or "droogs" as he calls them, share the same interests and they all have a hell of a lot of ass kicking/ teenage raping fun. To me it sounds like the life of all young men today. Sadly, for Alex, he was caught by the piggies and sentenced to jail. For any of you who have not seen this movie, I will spare you any more details. Spoilers are just so awful.

So in a celebratory manner, grab some drugs and mix it in a glass of milk. Drink up, the way Alex and his boys would have, and get ready for some insane, crazy, stupid criminal acts.
