NWR: Zombies take on DC

From the WaPo's TV reporter, Lisa de Moreas, who shows again why she's the most entertaining writer the Post employs:

A pack of zombies sent to the Lincoln Memorial to frighten commuters, terrorize women, and scare a year's growth out of local children were tuned away by brave United States Park Police...

Yes, Zombies Take Washington - promised to us by basic cable network AMC as it prepares to launch its zombie series "The Walking Dead" on Halloween -- turned into Zombies Politely Listen to Law Enforcement....

Things got deadly serious when the two dozen bloodied, tattered, undead wandered down 23rd St. NW and tried to cross the street to invade the Lincoln Memorial....

[After being quizzed by Park Police,] the zombies were led away obediently. Yes, the zombies will try to eat your face - but they're law-abiding face-eaters.

It appears the zombies did not know they needed a separate permit to enter property administrated by the National Park Service.

Thwarted in their efforts to eat some tourists faces and plug the new AMC horror series, the zombies crossed the street and wound up on Constitution Ave. between 22nd and 23rd streets NW, in front of the American Pharmacists Association, and became a tableau on the current state of health care. ...

Love that last bit - entire piece here:

Saw the zombies in Dupont Circle around 11am as I went out for a coffee with my client...despite their asking, we did not pose for a picture.
 
and what's worse is that these idiots come to dc, act like idiots on the Hill, and then go home and complain about "washington" - whereas it's the out of towners ruining the local scene.
 
I saw some zombies at the Stewart/Colbert rally. One had a sign saying, "What do we want? Brains." The other zombie had a sign saying "When do we want them? Brains."

I thought the voters were the zombies. They are well-distributed throughout the country.

More bunched in the middle and south, it seems. (Although Prop 19 losing in CA also sucked.)

So does biodynamics help the flavor profile of weed? What sorts of terroir differences are important to observe for a budding marijuana enthusiast? Is there a Loire Valley of pot? What is the state of dope connoissuership?

Is there a Blunt Observer journal to go with Cigar Aficionado and Wine Brand Spectator? (This month: salty snack food and joint pairings...) Who is the Robert Parker of Dope Criticism? Does he or she have a prejudice in favor of overripe, high-TCA weed from artificially irrigated fields?

Not to mention the candidates. Though most of the most zombie-like among them lost (O'Donnell, Angle, Buck & Miller).

Bill Easton once expounded to me the entertaining theory that all those arguments in the 70s over Thai vs. Panama Red vs. Jamaican laid the groundwork for today's wine geeks.
