textbook cases of the fragmentation of a person's personality in

personalities... you'd have a gungho, cynical personality taking
the abuse, and then when day-to-day stuff, the dominant personality
takes over.. and the little girl (probably of a lost innocence)
comes out once in a while...
rarely do books freak me out... actually none have.. but, there
were a couple of them which were weird enough to mess with one's
mind.. particularly the book, [b]Naked Lunch, written by
William S Burroughs.. to me, it was a weird genius at work... where
in his drug-addled stopor, he wrote about a disturbing parallel
universe in such detail...
but there is one book which contents, will probably stop most
people from ever setting foot in a fast-food joint ever again..
Fast Food Nation by Eric Schlosser... detailing
how that burger routinely kills lots of people in the US, and the
misery behind getting it there...[/b]
Hmm, I thought there was a film on that? About the fast food?
Think the title was Supersize Me..
i.c.y
