2/13/08 Links

-The Onion AV Club (which is a great, great website) has an interview with the King of the Zombies, George Romero. And another feature in the L.A. Times. As a serious horror movie (my favorite genre films are horror) fanatic and zombie movie connoisseur, I'm really excited for "Diary of the Dead." Also super excited for "Be Kind Rewind" next week.

-Will Obama be good for business? Apparently not as bad as everyone thinks.

-The neurological basis for prejudice.

-The Onion AV Club looks at an all-time underrated band, The Kinks.

-Kobe sure seems happy, which is certainly great news in Laker Land. Especially when he says "every day is like Christmas." If he is not satisfied as a result of the Pau Gasol trade, what could make him happy? Also, other than maybe MJ, who could possibly be more competitive than the Kobester. Also, 7-2 on the 9 game road trip would not only be fantastic as a Lakers fan, but the greatest road record on a continuous road trip since 1974-1975 saw the elimination of neutral site games. BALLER!

-The Onion makes a ridiculous argument against Obama. But really, if he brings comets to destroy the Earth by becoming president, can we afford to elect him?

-Another brilliant Onion article mocking the Israel-Palestine conflict with the metaphor of cats. I can't emphasize how brilliant this is.

-More evidence that corporate do-gooders get better sales in return.

-Radiohead remixes, available free! Pitchfork may be a bunch of elitist bastards, but they can be useful at times and they do generally know their stuff.

-Things to do now to retire comfortably. I don't do most of these, do you?

-This is not as funny as it should be. It's too close to reality. Conference calls...
