I am listening to World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War, and it’s effing awesome! It’s exactly the kind of zombie story I’ve always wanted.

Speaking of zombies, I have a theory that the ancient Egyptians began removing corpses’ brains and mummifying them in order to prevent the corpses from re-animating and feasting on human flesh. Now, I haven’t run a battery of scientific tests to confirm this theory, but I expect that my suppositions are pretty much exactly accurate.

Also, I think that a good closing line for Caesar in an ancient Rome-themed porno movie would be “I came, I saw, I came on what I saw.” I’m not sure what the Latin for that is, but it’ll probably sound pretty fucking classy, anyway.

Well, I’ve come to the conclusion that I should quit drumming. I mean, I’m not terrible, but even if I practice 8 hours a day, every day, for the rest of my life, I still will never be anywhere near as good as this skinny French bastard.

I am officially done with Lost. I’ve been a faithful viewer through the whole fucking thing, through all the disappointing bullshit of never giving a fucking answer for any of the mysteries of the island while adding new mysteries every single episode. And last night there was a two-hour season finale, and the one and ONLY answer that was given was to a minor question (who was in the coffin), and that answer just raised more questions! It seems pretty obvious now that the producers don’t have a plan for it except to milk the fucking show as long as they can. I’m not even going to go into all the other character- and story-related reasons I’m not watching anymore. Fuck you Lost, you’re dead to me.

Craziness:
How to Identify a Third Nipple - I don’t think I really need to say anything more about this.

This article pretty much sums up why I will almost certainly not be going to see the Simpsons movie. It just isn’t funny anymore, and that makes me very sad.

In other news, there isn’t really any other news. Oh, other than my boss being seriously convinced that deodorant is bad because the government puts dumbing agents in it to control the populace. Also, he believes he saw an evil spirit after sitting in the hot tub too long while drinking vodka and taking a triple-dose of his blood-pressure medication. And he also connects to the internet with his mind. The absolute craziest part is that I’m not making any of this up - he honestly believes this horse-shit. And it was funny at first, but it gets a little less funny the 400th time you hear the story from this smelly asshole who spits when he talks. I will be so glad to get back to school and not ever have to go back there.

Well, now I’m going to go get a shower, find something to eat, and maybe play a little Diablo II. Word!

First of all, let me just say that I very rarely bother with Digg anymore, because it has nothing to offer over Slashdot IMO. However, I do still have the top 5 Digg front page stories as a feed on my Google homepage, so just in case anything catches my eye I can grit my teeth and bear the slowness and the inane juvenile comments. And today there was this picture there, and further research pointed me to this page about German toilets, and let’s just say those crazy Germans know how to make a guy laugh.

The Washington Trip was alright, but there was a lot of getting lost on the way down (and back), and a lot of worrying about whether the car was going to be towed, and a lot of rushing around, and the hotel room was exceedingly tiny. But they had free HBO, and the metro system is fantastic, and the Holocaust Museum was beautiful and heart-breaking, so the trip wasn’t so terrible I guess.
