Zombies!

Full disclosure: Shaun of the Dead is one of my favorite movies, and I think Simon Pegg is adorable and genius.

We joke around our house that CrossFit training means we'll be able to survive when the zombies attack. I just made reference to that joke over at Urban Gets Diesel on Melissa's EXCELLENT post about how to deal with paleo naysayers, and then during my daily blog browsing, I found these:
A Zombie themed bar in Minneapolis where the bartenders dress like Simon Pegg in Shaun of the Dead

A BBC News article that examines what would really happen to human in a zombie attack... "My understanding of zombie biology is that if you manage to decapitate a zombie then it's dead forever." - Professor Neil Ferguson
Hell, you may as well watch this now:


Brains!

  2. Max Brooks gave a lecture at the Alamo Lake Creek a few months ago concerning "how to survive a zombie attack", it was pretty awesome. Alamo puts on a zombie walk at the beginning of the zombie film festival every October, it was so fun to see all the crazy looks we got walking down Congress!

  4. I *heart* Shaun. Maybe I shouldn't type that in a post about zombies. It could be taken very literally.

  5. I never saw this because I had to give up Hellraiser movies and scary Dean Koontz books when I had children. For some reason I couldn't handle it any more. Can't do gore! : -) But I love 'Run Fatboy Run' and Hot Fuzz!
