Just like Conference
If you loved International Talk Like a Pirate Day, a local group is going to take it to a lower level next month — the first annual SLC Zombie Walk.

Who doesn't love staggering around downtown with a dazed stare, making guttural sounds — basically my weekend M.O.

Interested? Get the lowdown here. Including vital info about staying in zombie character:
This may include grunting, groaning and slurred, moaning calls for 'brains'. It should be noted that zombie behavior is a hot topic of debate. Purists who draw their definitions from the original Living Dead films will claim that a zombie would never have the ability to call for 'brains' and furthermore that a zombie needs only living (or freshly killed) flesh for its sustenance and not the brain in particular.
A dress rehearsal held recently outside the KUTV Channel 2 studios downtown shows the potential of the Zombie Walk.

A hat tip to X96 Radio from Hell.

Zombies don't have a testimony.
Conference-goers do.
And they prefer green Jello to brains.

Damn, that's legendary stuff. Good way to start my morning here.

"Just like Conference" as a headline to the story? Comparing individuals on their way to worship services to zombies seems like a bit of a low blow. But I really enjoyed the story regardless.
