The Noid is the last corporate pitchman that worked for me. Still love their Crazy Bread with Crazy Sauce. I never avoided the Noid.

I never avoided the Noid. i forgot about the noid didn't mind him . yes i can beleive you've read all those cartoons. no offense and me as well but you're rather obsessive from what i can tell. what i really want to know is have you seen commercial where a person takes a drink of crush and then gets sprayed in the face with teen gallons of pop. how is this supposed to sell me pop; i know it's not literal but i wouldn't enjoy that . i know this not zombies but this is a horror forum and that's horrible revenge of the inexautable consumbles ho-lee sheep shit . maybe it's my problem but i did admit to being obsessive

Too quote Double A partially, "Truth be told" I'm a killjoy a lot, you might not notice because overall, the people on this site are both horror and wrestling fans, so I'm into what is talked about here, BUT I don't like 98% of pop-culture today.
Old man or not, we had better attention spans than those that followed, and we had more shocking music (Slayer, Marylin Manson, Rage Against the Machine, Body Count, Twisted Sister, GG Allin, et al.) than these kids. We are the first generation to have had tastes more shocking, disturbing, or controversial than those that followed. We don't think that what the youngsters are listening to or watching to be sinister to society, we find it bland and repetetive.
And after that rant from out of nowhere "Truth be told" I am obsessive/compulsive about what I love. Every discovery every few years or so that is actally good, I embrace compulsively I suppose. And I have a bit of ADD, but I still kick ass all over the place. And absolutely no offense taken LS. Cheers you Cannuck bastich!

I love you guys. ;D It is a horror forum after all and what could terrify a Texan more than the threat of big sloppy, hairy man love. Expect a giant bearded man kiss from me if I ever meet you. Anyway, Zombies, I don't consider anything that isn't reanimated dead to be zombies. I also make a distinction between the living dead, such as Vampires, and Zombies. In 28 days and I am legend the status of the victims was never made too clear except that there were signs of life, like respiration and emotional responses.

Wulfie-poo, you know I respect ya, dig ya alot, and love your opinions. Let's settle for a beer or three.
I'm the son of a bastard (literally, my dad's most hated word, I'm the son of a bastard-child, his issue, not mine) and I gringe from most love 'cause its alien to this Texas-bred bastard-grandson, my issue not yours, except of course for dog kisses on the cheek. You don't want to see a bionic Texan with a rebuit neck/five pieces of titanium, to jump through a window, would you?
And just so you know and I am trying here. Must type the words. Love ya too Wulf-man. You too, you Cannuck bitch-of-a-son!
Cheers!

Oh and Wulf, about zombies, comet-infected drones, living vampires, et al., I agree with you. Told ya.
Now one more puff, and of to bartend in the sun. Ten months ago, during the hottest summer on record in Austin, the meteorolgist I trust the most locally, stated we would break last year's record this summer. Official today, the record was broken. Last three days, 107, 106, and 97 at ten this morning. My creek has been dry for two years. One of the biggest arguments my dad lost to me, global warming is real. He called me crazy ten years ago, and Un-American this year.
Wulf, without meeting the guy, you'd consider my dad an extremely well-read sheep.
No more procrastinating, off to work in the sun at my patio bar. I covered the whole patio yesterday. Apologized to my customers. I think I sweat a pint serving food and drinks. I was a bartending god. Got much love from my "custies" and great tips/dinero. Ug.
Have a great day, and Cheers brothers!

Not sure what this has to do with zombies but in my opinion though we partailly to blame to be sure ; it seems to me there is more to it then the simple ''gore '' explaination i here the other planets are warming to. you all can disagree with me but i might have eat your brains. i made the post about zombies hah ha. i bet the walking dead don't do well in the heat ; might have to start a save the zombie foundation

Read WWZ. Heat doesn't do shit, they have no blood. They are a whole new biological "critter". They can live underwater for a decade walking the bottom until finally stumbling towards the surface.
The cold stops them. Until the springtime. Iceland, WWZ.

who says the zombies that come to eat us in real life will be anything like those in wwz. they might be but don't count on it. my attention span is sadly way too caffienated to give that monster of a book the respect it deserves . all i know is i don't expect walking rotting corpses to travel well. strangely enough i do seem to expect them to travel

At least youtube The Battle of Yonkers. In the audiobook version, Mark Hamill was the voice of the veteran telling the story of Yonkers. I have driven that road a dozen times. When you hear it, the "chokepoint", well I can completely envision this catastrophe. Mild Spoiler. That is where the US Army is broken.
The Battle of Hope is the opposite. It happens on the "un-safe" side of the Rockies. Hope, New Mexico is chosen by the army to implement a new strategy. Spoiler, mild again. It is where the army figures things out and marches all the way to the East Coast like a modern day Army of the Potomac tearing through Georgia. The US is "liberated" after a decade, and turns its attention to aiding nation after nation. The end of the War comes in China, the last country liberated, and a basketcase. Huge Early Spoiler. It all starts in the Chinese countryside and spreads from there to the world within about six or eight months.
Check your attention span, once you read ten pages, you will be addicted. I recommend it to you like I recommend "Y".

Solanium is why they can do what they do in WWZ. Basically Romero's dead, but the source is discovered to be a virus. It pretty much doesn't re-animate, it creates a new "animal" with their own physiological system. Not human, co-opted dead matter that eats meat. And they also travel well. The solanium reduces breakdown and rotting of tissue. They don't reek like rotted meat. Flies and all animals flee when they sense solanium.
Everything seems plausible in the book. Just blame the ChiComs.

I used to tend bar, loved it. It depends on which Global warming you're talking about. The earth goes through warming and cooling periods, it's fact, the evidence is there in the geologic record. The completely human caused version I don't believe. The science behind such claims is shaky at best. It's certain we are having an effect on our environment and possibly accelerating it slightly (research is still on going about this) but it's not the global catastrophe we would be lead to believe. It's the stupid ozone scare all over again.

I will agree to disagree with you, and I sincerely hope I'm wrong.
Gore is beyond tainted to me. I stopped trusting him when he visited a Buddhist temple to receive "campaign donations".
Look up Craig Livingston, "The Chicken-Man". He is the reason I stopped being a democrat in 1994 and turned on Clinton permanently.
Sorry Prez if you ever look here, but I consider Clinton and "W" traitors to this country for different reasons. Nixon was a better American, and Gore is forever tainted to me. Nixon never sold out the U.S. to other countries.
I voted, proudly for Nader in 2000 and the Libertarian in 2004 and Obama in 2008.
Not thrilled with my man at the moment, but Obama gets a "bye" from me for a bad, personal reason. We are Abe Lincoln marks. When I hear Obama use a bit of a Lincoln speech, or use a "Lincoln term", or word something with an air of Lincoln, it makes my little black heart soften long enough to smile. My hope is that he can rise to the occasion, but I ain't holding my breath. Even Tavis Smiley thinks Obama is a sell out.
Okay shutting up, but I'm a political junkie like HST. Steering away from the horror and blood-sucking creepy crawlies from D.C.

Dammit ludite, you are supreme. At least you use the word "zombie" in your posts. Did I err?
Yes! Used that horrid line again, score one for the jack-ass!
