Didn’t I already type this?

Okay, first things first, here is the rest of the post that I typed up and lost last night.  LJ has really been pissing me off lately with their java-script removing.  Perhaps it is time to look elsewhere.

So you’ve probably already seen this since it was national news, but these people just attended their school’s first integrated prom.  When I saw that title, I thought it was going to be a retrospective on some old people who attended their first integrated prom in the 60s.  Nope, 2007!  I just can’t believe such a thing was still going on.

Speaking of things that are crazy, there is actually a political party in India extolling the rights of the undead.  I’m not kidding, go read the article!  “We are using elections to highlight the problems of living dead,” said Bihari. “We know we cannot win elections but through election we can sensitize people and officials about this problem.” Remind me not to go to any country that has enough Zombies to have them qualify as a voting block (40,000 according to the article).  And who would be crazy enough to lead up the Zombie party? “His reasons for pursuing the cause stem from his own experience.  He was declared dead in 1976…”

I don’t know how this works exactly, but according to Peter King on MMQB if you go here and watch the video “What kind of world do you want” by Five for Fighting, $0.49 will be donated to autism research.  Not a bad deal, considering it is actually a good song!

Long time no update!

Okay, well first off Sara and I changed our phone numbers, so if you don’t have my new one give me an email and I’ll give it to you.

Second off, I know I’m pretty late on this one, but Neil Patrick Harris came out last week.  There must be a lot of upset ladies out there!  I don’t know if you’re watching How I Met Your Mother or not, but the show is fantastic and NPH’s character Barney makes the show.  If you don’t watch it you should really check it out.

So where to start?  How about with this:

Tell me that is not a fantastic costume!  I crack up every time I look at that.  Even now I’m laughing!  Oh man.

Now that the humor is out of the way, let’s get serious for a second…robots think people taste like bacon!!!  This is the begining of the end for us folks.  I like the comment below the article, “Well at least we don’t taste like chicken.”  Sara pointed out that we’re too fat as a species to be anything so lean as chicken.

Speaking of eating the flesh of the living, it looks like I missed The Monroeville Mall World Record Attempt Zombie Walk in Pittsburgh.  It’s billed as a world record attempt for “The Most People Participating in a Zombie Walk.”  Basically you show up at the mall where they filmed the original Dawn of the Dead (one of my all time favs) in makeup and shuffle around for a few hours.  Sara’s favorite part was the zombie food drive.  “All zombies are urged to bring donations of non-perishable food items.”  Like brains-in-a-can?  Do zombies eat anything that is non-perishable?  Also enjoyable is the advice to “Stay on the sidewalk unless crossing the street. When crossing, it’s OK to “break character” and cross quickly. Think fast “New Dawn of the Dead” zombies verses the slower “Old Dawn of the Dead” zombies when crossing the street.”

In other record-breaking zombie news, someone is attempting to break the world record for number of people reproducing the zombie dance from Michael Jackson’s Thriller video.  150 in case you were wondering.  I guess the previous record of 3 people at our wedding reception isn’t going to hold. 😦

That is all.

Yet another good game

/ Shane / Leave a comment

You know how much I like to shoot zombies!  This is a suprisingly simple yet good game where you’re an old man de-animating some walking corpses with a revolver.  My personal best is 131 zombies capped. One helpful hint is that you actually have to click on the zombie you’re trying to shoot. I had this crazy notion that bullets would actually hit things you didn’t click on and it caused my head to get pulled off.

P.S. Packers are actually doing kind of good…

And now for something important…Zombie Survival
