LAND OF THE DEAD

June 24th everybody is gonna have the opportunity to see George Romero's 4th sequel to his original masterpiece Night of the Living Dead. Night had two sequels, Dawn of the Dead, which is a comic book adventure, and the much darker and cult favorite, Day of the Dead. The entire trilogy stands on its own as one of the best horror franchises ever, and my pesonal favorite. Land of the Dead is set shortly after Day (of the dead) and features the acting of John Leguizamo, (The Pest, Spun) Dennis Hopper, (Easy Rider, apocalypse Now) the lesser KnowN Simon Baker, and as no stranger to the game, the lovely and talented, Asia Argento. Go and see Land of the Dead, Universal has grown the balls to give Romero some serious cash to do what all of his fans have been wanting since Duane Jones took it in the forehead in the end of the original. Romeros a great director who understands what his fans want from his movies, and will deliver. I suggest that this be your must see movie of the summer, Go see War of the Worlds, it will be good but if you wanna see a true horror classic over a summer blockbuster, go see Land of the Dead.

PS Look for a motorcycle dressed zombie, played by a certain special FX guru

The cerebral pantheon, in a nutshell.

The following, unlike most everything else you will ever be told, is completely true. Really, if you sit and think about anything for long enough, expand on any one single concept, focus in on any given idea--you will eventually realize that whatever it is you had in mind is absolutely trivial, completely pointless, and horrifyingly absurd. Devoid of all meaning Do not do this. This is the opposite of living. This is inaction. Life is in action. Go now, you, the living. Live.

Responding to Senator Gillibrand, RE CISPA

Senator, This is the same flawed thinking which allowed for the Patriot Act, with it's robust capabilities to infringe upon civil rights, and it's pittance of terror related convictions. The bald faced truth is that for the foreseeable future no state or government will every sufficiently be able to defend against cyber attacks of any degree of sophistication, as evidenced by the repeated and incessant attacks perpetuated by groups both private and state-sponsored, by us, against us, etc. Citing danger as an excuse for infringing upon the rights and liberties of innocent and law-abiding citizens is never excusable, though it is done with an ever-increasing and frightening regularity. This is not as you say striking a balance, this is the eroding away via legislation of the basic rights of privacy otherwise afforded by the US Constitution. With all due respect, until those elected in to power realize it is not theirs to wield, but rather to shepherd, on behalf of those who...

34th Street

I am flying weightless, born again in this concrete cocoon. The water is all about me, and yet it lets me be, it sets me free I hear Gideon twirl, the guitars whirl to the beating of drums, underneath these streets I can feel the tunnel walls hum For the moment I am alone, I with me, in the company of the thoughts I keep, my own strobe-light symphony while the city sleeps. Beauties, your tales of Spain leave me in stitches. We are amazing, we were years overdue! Happiness, these waking dreams, find my worn out soul, scratch whatever itches. Seven am never felt so alive, the sun gives me a sly look as it opens it’s eyes. 34th street, positively.
