Shoot 'em in the head!

Note to self: do not ever cease intake of sufficient amounts of meat-derived protein, lest I suffer the sort of paresis of the brain that makes one write letters like this one to Meryl Yourish.

Very, very unwise.

Belated PS: kudos to anyone who gets the reference in the title to this post. ;)

Shoot a vegan in the head? Why on Earth would you want to do that? They have no vital organs there.

I see you didn't get the reference. (Sigh.) Does no one watch zombie movies anymore?

I'll take a wild guess. Is it "Night of the Living Dead?"

:0) You got it!

Aren't there nicer - certainly less painful - ways to commit suicide?

Nope, never watched zombie movies. Before The Fellowship of the Ring came along the last movie I went to see was Emma. I go years without going to the movies. I have even less of a life than you claim to have, Andrea. That must be why I post so many comments on blogs.

It's also prominent in Traffic. It's when Catherine Zeta-Jones is looking through the binoculars, telling the hit man to kill the infomant, then he doesn't, so she runs down and bites his neck off and the guy becomes a zombie and CZ-J gets killed in a mall when a guy shoes a number 2 pencil in her ear.

Just so you know.

Wow. I never knew. I just thought Traffic was a run-of-the-mill crime drama. But was it as good as The Evil Dead?
