The walking dead just ate Hitler.

I'm not sure how I feel about that, in general, but in specific it's pretty awesome.

=============

Edit: Oh, wait. ZOMBIE HITLER! Holy crap, we never saw THAT coming!

Edit^2: "Ghouls don't LIKE heads. We wear these fake giant heads and we can walk right past, they'll let us escape."

I don't think I'm spoiling anything when I say that, in the end, the severed head of Elvis Presley is not, in fact, a sovereign proof against zombies.

I Believe In Evolution, Except For The Whole Triassic Period

"In the beginning, there were a few billion years of speciation and gene drift. And then nothing. And then, God made the lungfish and the trilobites, the ichthyosaurs and ammonoids with more complex suture patterns. He also made a couple new ferns.

And the Lord saw that these slight modifications were good, and allowed evolution to resume as normal in the Jurassic period and on up to the present day."

Man leaves $264 million to 8 charities, including Greenpeace and The Salvation Army.

Problem: he leaves the money to Greenpeace International, which doesn't exist any more but is, instead, now part of the Greenpeace Fund.

Washington State law says that in cases like this ,you look at the INTENT of the will and divide up the money that way. Six of the other seven charities? No problem with this at all.

The Salvation Army, entirely in keeping with their intolerant, racist, bigoted, and dishonest practices, sues on the grounds that they deserve more than the $33 million windfall they'd already got - specifically, that they should get $6 million more, as the $33 million going to Greenpeace should be divided up among the seven remaining charities.

They settled out of court. Salvation Army refuses to comment. Greenpeace says they gave $6 million to the Salvation Army's extortionists, and will keep the other $27 million because the other six charities won't touch the Salvation Army's lawsuit with a ten-foot pole.
