Star Wars Zombies
I suppose it was inevitable, what with everyone on a zombie kick. It's Star Wars: Death Troopers!
From the Fangoria review:
The Imperial Prison Barge PURGE is transporting prisoners when thruster damage causes it to break down in a remote, uninhabited region of space. They locate an Imperial Star Destroyer that has apparently been abandoned, and a crew is sent aboard to hopefully find the necessary replacement parts. Only some of the team returns to the PURGE, though, and those who do return are extremely sick and suffering from a variety of different symptoms: violent expectoration, respiratory difficulties, fever, seizures, hallucinations, hemorrhaging, coma, etc.
I guess we should be happy that at least they weren't shiny fucking vampires.
With all that in mind, it's best to be prepared for the coming zombie apocalypse. Remember, knowledge is power.

Random Beach Pictures
More random pictures from Thanksgiving at the beach.

Thanks for Sand and Water
Our new family tradition these past few years, has been to head to Port Stanley and go for a dip in the lake. And the last couple of Thanksgiving weekends have been hot and delightful. This one, a bit more temperate.
So, rather than hitting the beach, we hung out in Mackie's and overfed on fish and chips.
Typically, the boy became distracted early, so most of the time was spent herding.
Newly fattened on fish and, well, fat, it was off to the strand. Child #1 started sprinting as only 4-year-olds can.
I waddled after her with my aching, fish-filled belly.
And as soon as I caught up, she reversed field and headed back. Fun.
Child #2 discovered that riding on grandfather's shoulders was the better option as walking is a mug's game. Lazy and clever, I'll have to watch this one.
There was wood, and bird poop and sand and waves and boats and a great time had by all.
It wasn't as cold as when Herb and his family were here in May,
but it was just as empty, and almost as much fun.

Mid-Week Metal Uke Blogging
Because your need to see a Thor song covered on the ukulele shouldn't have to wait until the weekend.
What do you mean "I don't know who Thor is?".
You obviously aren't around 40 or Canadian. Let me help you with that problem.
Thor.
More Thor.
Old, sad-faced panda Thor.
