Zombie survival
Ah. that is true, Rosbjerg. I don't know about zombies being afraid of teh light, but presumably one could significantly disable those surrounding a comppound with a low powered and silent laser pointer?

The Beer Thread
Seriously? Yeast is a fungus, does that roll it into the animal kingdom? A vegan couldnt eat a mushroom either? Hey, pal, they lost me at not punching monkeys.

The Beer Thread
If the alcohol content rises above a certain level then the yeast dies. I don't actually agree with veganism, but points for effort.

Zombie survival
I disagree that leaving the city is a good plan. Simply because it would involve movement in the period of greatest panic. Mass hordes of refugees flooding non-urban areas, drawing zombies to them, and locust-ravaging small communities. Incidentally, a recent report (seriously) stated it was a question of 'when' not 'if' we can expect some form of epidemic in the UK. Expected casualties from the epidemic were rated as being around 35,000 dead, although the full consequences of the disruption would be almost impossible to estimate.

The Music Thread
I recently had an argument with young lad who maintained, perfectly seriously, that Genesis were better than Aerosmith.

Well, the "Too too solid flesh" soliloquoy becomes almost a speech on war, if you imagine him doing it while walking patrol in a massive killer robot. EDIT: Known to the rest of the human race as the "To be or not to be" soliloquoy Further edit: I've just checked the soliloquoy in question and I'm talking rubbish. It's not the too too solid flesh one, and neither are to do with war in the slightest. However, reading it did make me wonder: If death is so bad, and live so good, why do so few come back?

Mind you, Guildford is bloody expensive. It's nearly London prices.

The Beer Thread
Oh, for sure. I like Tooheys, if we're talking Oz beer. Although it's VERY malty.

Zombie survival
I've been giving some thought to rations for the forthcoming zombie apocalypse. I know how many calories I should eat, but I don't know how few I can get by on, plus assuming a one month ration limit, whether I need any proteins and vitamins. Anyone have any good advice on this?

...And presumably in the last year you discovered a decent beer?

Boorons? It's not anti-semitic to hate Nazis.

ArmA didn't really offer anything that I could see, because the enemy were too smart. Same problem as Flashpoint. Multiplayer, however, it's pretty cool.

BAT box? As in Bela Lugosi?

US Presidential Elections
That's lemon juice, and anyway I thought we'd settled on 'islamofascists'? With what I can only assume is girlish charm and aplomb I'd gone further to jifascists. Jif is easier to say.

I opted against Norway, and decided to stay in the UK Ah, er... well the beer's better.

US Presidential Elections
I was just reflecting how much Clinton had contributed to the jif threat, through ignoring the growing problem under his watch, and most particularly failing to take action over the Balkans, which I'm beginning to see was the catalyst for Western jif growth.

Fantastic news. Very pleased for you, and I'm sure you'll enjoy Norway, judging by the Nords I've met.

What you did today
I've always thought that a good counter to the Haka would be to launch into an impromptu rendition of some Gilbert and Sullivan, including the dancing. Screamingly drunk yesterday. Unless I'm mistaken I was actually asked to participate in a contract killing by a guy in the pub, but I told him not to be 'silly'. I then launched into a drunken and very loud diatribe to the effect that murder was a nonsensical way of conducting one's business. I only hope he was joking!
