Student arrested for zombie story
The story that’s popped up on BoingBoing
about a high school student arrested for writing a zombie story is quite compelling, but it happened in 2005.
It’s not new news Blogosphere!

Stella saw my profile and had become ‘intrested’ in me. She said she “will also like to know [me] the more.” How could I resist? Could this be the real thing? Could this be… Love? I dreamed of our life together at her family’s home in the English countryside. She wrote me beautiful poetry: “remeber the distance or colour does not matter but love matters...

I was walking around Wall Street and found this right around the corner from the NY Stock Exchange. It’s written in Monopoly money. How coincidental considering our economic crisis!
Twenty minutes later I walked by the same spot and it was gone.

BD: I'm so thrilled that my friend Andrew went to Denver, and saw the hobos.
JH: Seriously I think that you and you're associates are the funnest derelest peoples ever.
BD: Heck yeah we are.
JH: I wonder if it's just because you are, and all the people you know are or if it's a Denver thing.
BD: It's both. Not all from Denver achieve greatness but It's good that you can appreciate it.
JH: It's scary. I mean I can roll.
BD: Some can't.
JH: The kids I grew up with. probably can't.
BD: What's scary ? How much fun we have?
JH: They'd just think your lifestyle is too intense.
BD: We have the most fun out of anyone in the world. It scares people.
JH: What contributes to that? Why are people from Denver the funnest?
BD: Well Denver living breeds a certain mix of daring and alcoholism and then the people who are the best at this lifestyle bond together which formed The Wetboys and extended Wet Family, and then when you're in the family Denver is your oyster and you can do whatever you want.
JH: Yeah I like it because y'all are smart and creative, but also drink like hosers.
BD: Because you're with so many people that no one will stop you.
JH: It's like the best of all possible worlds.
BD: Yeah, Brains and drinking
JH: Denver has a history of nutzos. I read On the Road and they stop in Denver in the 50s and they have a crazy time.
BD: Oh and the altitude helps.
JH: How so?
BD: It makes you drunker. Robyn went to Denver and said he had "The worst hangovers of his life"
JH: hahahaha
BD: I'm sure I've shown this to you before: http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/453899/denver_named_most_dangerously_drunk.html?cat=5
JH: Why is it dated December 31 1969?
BD: Well, that's wrong.
