There was talk of zombies at work today, and that immediately reminded me of one of the funniest NPR programs I have ever heard.
In 2003, I was stuck somewhere in a Southern California freeway when NPR's Talk of the Nation went into its final segment about zombies. It was a segment about how people should prepare to defend themselves against zombie attack. The host interviews author of The Zombie Survival Guide: Complete Protection From the Living Dead, Max Brooks.
If you ever need a good case of the sillies, you should definitely listen to the October 30, 2003 edition of Talk of the Nation.
I hope NPR never takes this off their website, or never archives it in some password and money-protected place.
And remember, as Max Brooks says, "If a zombie's coming after you with its arms up and its mouth open and its biting, and gnawing, and moaning don't worry about brain and the flesh. Just get out of there."
