Happy 7th B-day D, "The Walking Dead" tonight

This is a friend's book, "Wilderness" he's drawing attention to the book he has written. Check it out on facebook. Here's the link: http://www.facebook.com/#!/group.php?gid=304984697029 He describes the book as: "I've written a novel called “Wilderness” which I'm sending out to agents (think "Calvin and Hobbes" written by Neil Gaiman)" He also says "one who friends the group will not get any messages from me, they will just be helping a young aspiring novelist." I think that's a worthy cause.

Hello,

First of all I'd just like to say, Happy Birthday to my youngest son. I love you! Yes my youngest son is a Halloween birthday. He dressed up as a army skeleton for Halloween.

Halloween is one of the lamest holidays. Really do we need a holiday where we can pretend that we are someone or something else? Isn't that we do everyday already. When your at work, at church, out in public, on a date do you really act how you really are. The only places where my true personality comes out is at home and at my therapist's office. It comes out there because I'm trying to work on things and become a better person. There's no room for bull crap in a therapist's office.



So you can get your full zombie on, AMC is showing "Dawn of the Dead" at 8:00 EST. Then that leads into the first episode of "The Walking Dead". I can hardly wait. Go Zombies! "Dawn of The Dead" trailer (Spot the actor from "Flash Forward"):

Cool! That's not the only scary thing on TV today though. Also one of the early NFL games today is the woeful 3-4 Jacksonville Jaguars going into Dallas to play the even worse 1-5 Cowboys. With Tony Romo injured and this season lost, it's time for Dallas to start rebuilding. With Romo injured let's let him rest for the rest of the season and the next couple of seasons too :) If a Dallas player is injured, there's no need to rush him back. Everything from this point forward should be all about the future. Why does Wade Phillips still have his job? Jerry wish him luck and send him on his way. This season isn't salvageable and he's not the one that could salvage it anyway.

Another scary sight is that the 0-2 Jazz go into Oklahoma City to play the powerful Thunder. They are led by one of the World Basketball Championships heroes Kevin Durrant. It should be an easy victory for the Thunder. The Jazz will fall to 0-3 proving once again how meaningless the Jazz's 8-0 preseason record was. Both this game and "The Walking Dead" will be scary. The difference is that "The Walking Dead" is intentionally and entertainingly scary.

Although Halloween is lame, even a lame holiday deserves some good music. Here's a selection of good Halloweenish music.

Any Oingo Boingo song could be a Halloween song, here's a couple of the more obvious ones:
