forget all web2.0 procrastination tools for a little while, you really wanna stay focussed on this for the next hour or so. newsarama says:

In celebration of the latest volume of Alan Moore and Kevin O’Neill’s The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen from Top Shelf, we’ve got a special treat: A six-part series of interviews with Moore himself examining the themes and ideas around his creation.

Moore spoke with us for more than two hours about Century: 1910, the first of three graphic novels constituting the third part of LoEG. It’s a more straightforward adventure after the sourcebook, The Black Dossier, chronicling the League’s various incarnations across the twentieth century.

All six parts are online now:

» part 1
» part 2
» part 3
» part 4
» part 5
» part 6

O, Kaffee, du zerstreust die Sorgen, du bist das Getränk der Gottesfreude, du gibst Gesundheit denen, die arbeiten, um Weisheit zu erwerben. Nur der vernünftige Mensch, der Kaffee trinkt, kennt die Wahrheit. Der Kaffee ist unser Gold: da, wo man ihn darbietet, genießt man die Gesellschaft der besten Menschen. Möchte Gott, daß dem hartnäckigen Verleumder dieses Getränks es nimmer zugänglich werde.

- Scheich Abd-Alkader, 17. Jahrhundert.
