tiny menace

When I saw this question over at Tam's (who saw it on RNS) I immediately knew my answer. For a very long time this song has featured prominently on my life's internal soundtrack, alongside other classics like Breakfast at Tiffany's Moon River, a Tori Amos medley, a few Irish drinking fighting songs and The Ladybugs' Picnic from Sesame Street.

Quirky fierceness for some zombie slaying? Yep, that'll do.



And in case you need a visual of the last thing ol' Zed might see when the undead SHTF?
My Buddy the Gun Enthusiast is happy to help.

the Z-Team

There's a little meme floating around the social interwebz today and it just made me giggle.

You're supposed to go to your Facebook profile page and take note of the top 5 friends in the sidebar. They are now your team in the upcoming Zombie Apocalypse. Judging by your friends' skill sets, you have to imagine how long your team might last.

My zombie squad is: Tam, Marko the Munchkin Wrangler, SayUncle, Carteach, and OrangeNeck.

Just a hunch, but I think we'll be okay.

packed & packin'

Lipgloss? Check.

Spare mag? Check.

Tactipanties? Check.

Zombie socks? Check.

Yep. I'm ready to visit Detroit. (POGUES SHOW TONIGHT!)

I've rediscovered the pleasure of analog text & I think I might just have to read this next...



Full disclaimer: I've never read any of the original Austen novels - I think the Edwardian Regency women bore me to tears. Nice dresses, though.

Also? Don't you just love these little book trailer films?

ghouly girly

Oooh, sparkly! Pretty!

Hmm...but the color is kind of putrid.

Ah, that explains it...though I thought it'd be more gray. And rotten. And splotchy. Ew.

are you ready?

Oh crud...all I've got is a coffee cup. I'm doomed!

(via geeks are sexy)

the new menace

Oh, and you all were so worried about zombies. Fools!
And if these little bastards team up with octopi, we're all doomed.

(Book find of the day! I LOLed.)

B B & Guns & Zombies!

(braaaaaaaaaaaains...)

Tonight at 7PM EST (yes, a new time!) Bonnie and I will talk with Michael from the Zombie Squad about all things zombie - how they've entered popular culture, how to prepare the inevitable zombie wars, and much more.

The call-in line will be open and we'd love to hear your tips and tricks for dealing with the undead.
Tune in and log into the chat, it's going to be a super fun show!

B B & Guns, tonight!!

braiiiiiiins!

This morning, Mike and I had one of those "which would you rather be, a vampire or a zombie?" discussions that tend to happen before either of you have had enough coffee. Mike thinks that being a vampire sounds too difficult, what with the allergy to sunlight, undead politics and the dandified emo wardrobe requirements.

"I mean, being a zombie is simple - just shuffle around, moan and eat human brains."

I smirked and said, "Well, then, you'd be a natural...that's two thirds of what you do now."

He made a face at me and muttered under his breath. "Bah. I don't moan."
