Mario, is this scene in the book? I'm trying to remember. It's a good question, though. I'll have to think about it a bit.

in light of the other thread about religion i find it humorous that we cite chuck, literally, chapter and verse.

before i die i want to discover the truth--about everything. i want total freedom from propaganda. i want freedom from manipulation. i want freedom from public relations campaigns. i want to know what's really, really, really real.

if not a whole house, then maybe i'd try to build a cabin in the woods. then see how long i can live in it. then, if that doesnt kill me, travel around ancient castles in europe and find spell books. then see how many of the spells work. if i'm still alive after that, then just find something interesting to do with the rest of my life, and then bid farewell to my friends before i die, and figure out who gets the spell book and the cabin.
of course, none of that is actually going happen. whats going happen is, i'm going end up working a a boring and pointless job, making just enough money to survive, and then die. miserable alone and forgotten.

exactly. which is why this is a way TO die, not something to do BEFORE you die. choosing a method of suicide is choosing what you will do WHILE you die. the subject was BEFORE you die as in while you're still nowhere near death.

i think you were just looking for a way to say this:

Ok, dude, that was a little too creepy even for me. ChiChi's probably on her way to the local courthouse to see how difficult it is to file a restraining order on someone you've never met.

Anyway, things I want to do before I die include seeing Europe, learn to cook well, and write a book. There are plenty of other things, but I'll just keep the list short.

This was originally a "what would I do if I had 24 hours left to live thing," but it's probably applicable here too. I'd like to take my massive Oldsmobile 98 and find a new car still with the dealer plates on and smash it like Kathy Bates in Fried Green Tomatoes.

...I just really hate new cars. And the people who feel they need to buy them.

To actually take pleasure in answering the question, "What do you do for a living?" I can't bear it. Apart from that, finishing the novel I started god knows how many years ago would suffice nicely.

I got one called Hell of the Living Dead. But it's in Italian and there's no subtitles so i never bothered watching it. Flight of the Living Dead is a newer one and in English but is still awful.

Oh man, I saw Flight of the Living Dead! I thought it was hilarious! I passed by it the first time I saw it at Blockbuster. I was like... okay... Snakes on a Plane but with zombies, right?! And I was! I had to get it on the second pass. But if you want a truly awful zombie movie check out the "remake" of Day of the Dead. The two lines that should NEVER be uttered in a zombie movie, especially by a Marine and the person who knows whats going on: "Dont worry, its not loaded" and "It'll be fine, I poured bleach on it."

 

oh man. on acid, that movie was made just for me.

yeah, i saw that one. all the guns had the same exact silencer sound effect when they shot them, whether they had a silencer or not.

Have you tried the remake of night of the living dead in 3D? with sid haig? I think there's points in that where they don't even bother to use coherrant speech to convey dialogue.
