The Zombieslayer

When I was in high school, the wannabes loved to brag about how they listened to Bach, Vivaldi, and Mozart.  Jeez, put me to sleep.  I was listening to the good stuff - Tchaikovsky and Brahms.  I haven’t heard Brahms’ Fourth in years and revisiting and it’s every bit as good as I remember it.

I don’t know how it slipped past me, but now getting into a relatively obscure Extreme Metal band from the 80s called Bathory.  Named after the most evil person in history, folks who can’t stand lower budget production probably should skip this band.  However, I’m seeing past the bad production and straight into the music.  It’s quite good.

I’m loving Loreena McKinnett.  I had a friend back in ‘96 who heavily recommended her but never got a chance.  Now that I’m a member of eMusic.com, I got all her stuff she’s released on there.

I’m loving that my beloved Packers picked up Dom Capers as their Defensive Coordinator.  It’s about time we switched to the 3-4.  Our defense last year was porous, failed to make adjustments, and couldn’t generate any pressure on opposing Quarterbacks.  Plus, teams were running straight up the middle against us.  It was painful to watch.  A new DC and a new scheme may be just what the doctor ordered.

I’m loving Guinness beer.  I’ve been drinking one a night for over a week now for dinner.  It’s great beer.  It goes with everything.  Italian, Thai, stir fry, goes with it all.

I’m loving the food I cooked last night.  Had some people over and cooked eggplant with organic sausages, stewed tomatoes, lots of garlic and ginger, and zucchini squash all over pasta.  Turned out great.  Taking the leftovers to work tomorrow.

And I’m loving this joke:

A man goes to the doctor.  “Am I going to live to be a hundred?”

“Do you drink?,” the doctor asks.

“No.”

“Do you smoke?”

“No.”

“Do you chase loose women?”

“No.”

“Do you drive fast?”

“No.”

“Do you do any illegal drugs?”

“No.”

“Then why do you want to live to be a hundred?”

What are you loving now?

No, don’t worry. The zombies didn’t get me. It’s just I’ve been extremely busy and have once again neglected my blog.

So…

The zombie plague starts. The zombies start eating this guy in a suit and tie and go “uuuuuhhh” as they’re eating him. Then they catch this lady, knock her off her bicycle, and go “uuuuhhhh” as they’re eating her.

A cop sees the whole thing and tries to rescue the two people but he slips and the zombies devour him and go “uuuuhhhh.”

The plague spreads and soon they’re everywhere, eating everyone in sight. They get to a clown and start eating him then one zombie turns to the other and says “does this taste funny to you?”

Well, Bush did one thing right when leaving office so I’ll kindly give credit where it’s due - he finally pardoned Ramos and Compean, two Border Patrol agents doing their job. Update - Thanks Tshsmom. I read the article wrong. No, he didn’t pardon them but just shortened their sentences. OK, I’m now officially back to Bush sucks and can’t do anything right.
Obama took an oath to defend the Constitution. You think he’ll adhere to it? I don’t either. If you wonder why I hate both the Democrats and Republicans, well, probably the number one reason is the Democrats like This part of the Constitution but not That part. The Republicans on the other hand like That part of the Constitution but not This part. So for those who love their freedom and privacy, they’re both bad guys.

As for the economy, what Obama needs to do is cut taxes, but more importantly protect American jobs from going overseas and enforce the illegal immigration laws that undercut family farmers and the working classes. You simply cannot outsource more jobs than you create and expect an economy to continue going strong. I’ve been saying this since I started blogging in ‘05.

And finally, I’m supposed to say something nice about someone I hate. Here’s the nice side of The Zombieslayer. OK, something nice about PETA. Let’s see…

Well, they do manage to convince stupid actresses to take their clothes off, like Eva Mendes and Alicia Silverstone. So that’s a good thing at least.

Hope you all are doing fine and I hope the global economy recovers. Most importantly, people around the world need to start using birth control. If you wonder why there’s always war somewhere, it’s because there are too many people for the resources. Religion, nationalism, race, ethnicity, etc., are just the excuse.

Sexism goes both ways, folks.  I keep hearing over and over about how bad women have it.  I won’t argue that.  There is plenty of misogyny out there.  There are a lot of backwards attitudes that women have to deal with.  I agree.  I’m not arguing that.  Blah blah blah.

But what people don’t realize is that there’s just as much anti-male sexism.  Take Hollywood for example.  Male on female violence is a horrible thing in Hollywood (as it should be).  However, female on male violence is comedy.

Another example - women already live eight years longer than men.  Men know this, and accept it.  It’s part of being a man - you will die before your spouse so you plan accordingly and make sure she’ll be taken care of when you’re dead.  That’s something we accept.

Food companies don’t help.  They fortify food for women.  Like cold cereal - you know how hard it is to find a box of cereal that doesn’t have tons of iron? Geez, iron is bad news for men.  Don’t believe me? Why do you think there is zero iron in Men’s Vitamins?

We already live eight years shorter than women.  Why speed it up?

My two cents on Gaza

You can already guess my two cents on Gaza.  Once again, I bring you the great Zombiesladamus, the one with powers to tell the future.  One hundred years from now, there will be fighting in the Middle East.  Two hundred years from now, there will be fighting in the Middle East.  One thousand years ago, there was fighting in the Middle East.  Two thousand years ago, there was fighting in the Middle East.  There will always be fighting in the Middle East.

Why? Because there are too many people for too few resources.  Ever been there? You will notice people everywhere, no trees, lots of sand, no water.  That’s what the fighting is all about, folks.  Pink Floyd sang “with, without, and after all isn’t that what the fighting’s all about?” for a reason.  They get it.

There was some lady in Gaza telling the reporter that five of her seven daughters were killed by the Israelis.  Now, that sucks big time and I feel bad for her, don’t get me wrong.  But you also have to think “what the heck were you thinking having seven kids?”  There’s your answer to why they’re always fighting.

Religion is just the excuse.  If they were all the same religion, they’ll fight about race.  If they were all the same religion and race, they’d fight about ethnicity, or language, or something else.  Believe me, they’ll find something to fight about.

The US should take no stand one way or another and should send no monetary support to ANY side.  We have enough problems here at home to deal with.
