Re: Revolution
Revolution? Not a clue. A group of revolutionaries must battle a governing dictatorial militia 15 years after an instantaneous global shutdown of all electronic devices known as the Blackout. Sound like a watered down The Day , which if you haven't seen then shame on you, go away and watch it at once.

http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh213/inhuien/December.jpg This is the best guitar in the world. Got her in 88 (built 82) second-hand for £350 inc hardcase, which was not a bad price even then in the UK. Sounds like a charging Rhino in heat and could shoot the balls off said Rhino from 100 yards...

It was a solid bodied guitar type thing dubbed the frying pan, It’s more of a lap/Hawaiian affair than what we'd think of as an electric guitar but close enough to prevent anyone else being granted a patent. http://www.rickenbacker.com/images/hs-patent.jpg http://www.rickenbacker.com/images/hs-fryin...

Finished reading a non-science fiction book called The Wasp Factory by Iain M. Banks. Very creepy book. That was his first book to be published and as you don't say it's dog burningly messed up.
