Rented a DVD last night titles 1917. Pretty good movie and based on a eye witness report.

Correction: LOOSELY based on eye witness reports.
The videography was very interesting as well as the terrain.

Ok, as a 70+ year old man, can someone explain to me this thing about zombies? The old Charlton Hesston movie was pretty much a flop. What happened?

omega man is a super huge cult favorite. [Late night TV ]
big enough that they got Will Smith to do a remake back when he was the biggest box office draw.

anyway the Zombie movie is a psychological thing.
same as apocalypse now, what other 4-1/2hr. war movie do you have only one 20 second battle scene [in the middle and not at the end] and the movie is a total success?

Zombies are a PC thing to kill. When you need an enemy with no political baggage involved with killing them make something up.

Yep, remember the Gieco cave man TV commercials? That is exactly what that was, needed somebody to make fun of and put down that wouldn't sue them. Enter some of the worst TV commercials ever, the cave man.

worst TV commercials ever - and the TP commercials. Actually most are stupid and some really gross. Remember the alka selzer T-bone commercial - a few funny ones like that now. Never did get or appreciate the zombie movies. Got an amber alert this morning - nobody else out to see the lost.
She was ticked as Kroger had nothing she wanted but Tom Thumb had everything - including TP. Told her I heard Kroger has some labor issues so re-stockers are slowing it down.
Friend made some masks the other day so met a church parking lot and got mine. Wife said my painter mask with the pods on the side might spook somebody in the store. Kinda looks star wars like.

Spook someone?
You'd look like Darth Vader and have kids lined up for your autograph!

last place I picked up T/P was at the Lowe's, it was sitting right next to the paper towels.
but they put a bunch on a cart and shoved it right in front of the entrance doors so you couldn't miss it on you way in.
it was even a bit cheaper than the wal-mart usually has it.
