Sometimes a quick side note becomes so big that it has to become its own blog, a spin-off if you will. (And then Came Maude...)* In a recent post I wrote about people trying to sell their homemade music on Venice Beach. I compared them to Zombies, both in numbers and persistence. This of course led to some Zombie questions...
Why do Zombies and sleep walkers have to walk with their arms straight out or down but stiff? Rigamortis? Are sleep walkers dreaming about being zombies? Zombies should walk with their arms crossed with each arm rubbing the other while trying to stay warm. No? I mean they have no blood running through them so they can't be warm blooded. And why are these dead people 10 times stronger than living people? And what's so good about being un-dead that they want everyone else to be like them? Reminds me of people who live in LA who complain daily but are always encouraging people to move here.
It's like one person depicted Zombies and we were forever stuck with that representation. How about portraying cunning Zombies that live amongst us and use stealth tactics to attack the living. Or would they have to reclassified as Body Snatchers?
I actually have no interest in Zombies but I'm very intrigued by people who are into with Zombiism. Is it really fun? What's the deal with Zombie Walks? People in Non-third world countries have a lot of free time on their hands. I'll tell you that much. Shouldn't real Zombies use the Zombie walk day to plan a real attack. Catch us off guard. Sounds like a groovy movie premise. Hands off it's mine (providing it hasn't been done already. :-)
It's probably all in the Zombie White paper I haven't read.
Youtube Zombie walks if you have 15 minutes to kill...or be killed.
*”Maude” was a 70's sitcom that was a spin off of “All in The Family”
“Good Times” was spun off “Maude”
“Facts of Life” Spun off “Different Strokes” as was “Hello Larry”
“Fraiser” was spun off “Cheers”...it's a fun game.

It's the same with aliens. Who decided that they were little green guys? I'm guessing they're some colour that we've never seen before which only exists on other planets. I'm reminded of what Harry from Third Rock From The Sun said while taking a painting class. "I invented a new colour today. It's a mix between red and yellow. I call it 'redyellow!'"
Family Matters was a spin off of Perfect Strangers. I know you're thinking, "Get out of the city!" But it's true.
