Not just Zombies. Oh, no. Not just Zombies on the web. Uh uh. Philosophical Zombies on the web, compete with scholarly articles: [link]
Last night I was talking to Bob about how Jasmine from AtS s.4 is a classic example of the philosophy utility monster.
Can I apply to become a misanthropist?
Did you throw your Swingline stapler at him? If so, you've passed the qualifying exam.
On the subject of bad milk, this is one area where I err on the side of caution. Usually milk smells bad to me before the sell by date, and I'm paranoid about bad milk.
No bad experiences or nothing, I just don't like the idea of drinking bad milk. I can't watch the scene in the middle of Minority Report for many, many reasons.

That zombie article is great. I should probably mention that Daniel Dennett is a freakin' giant in the field of philosophy of mind (in fact, I imagine that most philosophers would agree that he's easily the greatest living practitioner), and it does my heart good to know that he's spending his time arguing about zombies.
On another note, I should also point out that The Zombies' Odyssey and Oracle is a great lost masterpiece.
Jumping way ahead (and then going back to read) to say I made it to Belmont, and have already found a Starbucks, 2 grocery stores, 2 gas stations, a liquor store, and my neighbor's internet connection. (Not necessarily in that order.) The movers are here, and I am never moving again.
The time is 1:53pm. Now bored beyond all recognition. Applying caffeine to no effect. No further demonic voices issuing from previously docile computer equipment. All quiet on the midwestern front.
Yay, Perkins!
I hope the move-in goes well
