Misc. Thoughts: the morning after edition

1.) The man said the night was always darkest just before the dawn. I think the dawn just arrived.

2.) That said, I think [livejournal.com profile] tommx put it best: "The true work begins."

3.) Following that, I think I have fixed the Harvey Dent mix. If you had any problems downloading or playing it before, try these: Part One and Part Two. They're now all m4a files, and hopefully in order. Let me know if it works all right, so I can pimp it on a couple relevant LJ communities! These kids have probably never heard a Peter Gabriel song in their lives!

4.) And yet, amid the joyous dancin' in the streets, California's Prop 8 passing is this election's Captain Buzzkill. That said, thanks to [livejournal.com profile] rosered2318 for putting it into perspective with the thought of it going to the Supreme Court. Here's hoping.

5.) Magnolia (the name of the minivan I will be driving) is nearly ready for travel. The only thing I think I need to get is a portable hot plate or stove for making soup and ramen and whatnot. Probably wanna go to Target. What else am I forgetting?

6.) Seriously, folks. Karaoke. Remingtons. Tonight. Anyone in? If it's not happening, fine by me, I have packing to do. But it's my last huzzah, I'm off tomorrow. So what's it going to be, then?

EDIT: 7.) Oh, wait, Mo's at Austin Grill tonight? That might be even better! Nachos and margaritas and not making an ass of myself, I approve!

Simon Pegg: ZOMBIES DON'T RUN!

Thanks Bloo.

Simon Pegg on why Romero-style slow zombies are and will always be superior to Zack-Snyder-style fast zombies.

He makes excellent, thoroughly geeky points. I look forward to referring this to anyone who trashes slow zombies or hold the DAWN OF THE DEAD remake up as better than the original. Depressingly, such people exist.
