Zombieland Rules

I just watched Zombieland, and was quite taken with the rules.  A little bit of Google-Fu, and I found the full list:
1 Cardio

2 The Double Tap

3 Beware of Bathrooms

4 Wear Seat belts

5 No Attachments

6 The “skillet”

7 Travel Light

8 Get a Kick Ass Partner

9 With your bare hands

10 Don’t Swing Low

11 Use your foot

12 Bounty paper Towels

13 Shake it off

14 Always carry a change of underwear

15 Bowling Ball

16 Opportunity Knocks

17 Don’t be a hero (though some rules are made to be broken)

18 Limber Up

19 Break it up

20 Its a marathon, not a sprint, unless its a sprint, then sprint

21 Avoid Strip clubs

22 When in doubt Know your way out

23 Ziplock

24 use your thumbs

25 Shoot First

26 A little sun screen never hurt anybody

27 Incoming!

28 Double-Knot your shoes

29 The Buddy System

30 pack your stain stick

31 check the back seat

32 Enjoy the little things

33 Swiss army Knife
It was quite entertaining--about on the level of Shaun of the Dead, with a bit less paradoy.  I liked Tallahasee's Mare's Leg (but I'm a sucker for it after watching Firefly reruns all these years)--and why did Columbus only have a double barrel?  Anyway, if you don't mind a bit of gore, it is well worth it.

Update:  I keep running into situations where I say to myself--"Oh, rule 4."  These things are infinitely applicable.

Well...

I guess not having a computer is good in one respect, at least.  I have now cleaned all of my guns that needed it.  Next, I suppose I could... clean them again. 

...

I think I am going through withdrawls.  Which is pret-ty darn sad.  I almost wish I had some homework to do...

A Buddhist Joke

A Buddhist goes up to a hot dog stand, bows his head and says, "Make me one with everything."

Weeping Uke

Steven has an amazing piece of musicianship up on his blog, so I thought I would go and find one to go with it.  I give you: While My Ukulele Gently Weeps:

Computer Update

Well, I took my laptop to a computer fix up place, and it would be a $300-400 operation. You can get a new computer for that, so that is what I am going to do. This is what the compy looked like just before it turned into the six-fingered (or screened, in this case) man of the computer world and was killed by Inigo Montoya:


                                                               OOOOOH!  PRETTY COLORS!

Luckily this happened after I was done with any reports of the semester, so I have no real reason for a computer (except to blog at you, my fine viewer!), and for now I can get by with school computers or my roommates old desktop.  Unfortunately, there are no real computer places in town to buy one, and if I ordered one it would get here after I leave for home for the summer.  We'll see what happens...

In other news, I got to go shooting (bought some ammo at the gun show) over the weekend, and blew a bunch of holes in a milk jug. 


The gophers evaded us, though.  They're out, in between bouts of snow, but they're quick little suckers, they are.

As I said before, don't expect too much for the next couple weeks, though I might find time to post some random YouTube videos.  For now, I only have one question:  anyone know anything about laptops these days?

Computer Broken

I had six tiny, tiny screens. It was hard to use. Now it is at the shop. Hopefully it will cast less to fix than a new computer...

No idea how long it will be away, for now I am using my roommate's old clunker. Till I get it back, don't expect too much.
