One thing I get out of Chris being away is fun phone conversations with him in the evenings. Last night we were trying to decide what traditional horror character would be best. I've been thinking about this further and think I can give you my list in order.
Zombie - This is sloth at its best. You wander around lazily and occasionally snack on someone's brain. I can't say brain sounds all that appealing, but otherwise it's a pretty nice gig.
Vampire - The living forever thing is a bit of a plus, but then again undead isn't exactly living. There are a number of ways to be defeated (who's scared of garlic?!?) but turning into a bat and flying away at will could be useful.
Mummy - Being trapped in a tomb for thousands of years until I need to fulfill a curse sounds awful. Plus, having your brain removed out your nose and your other organs placed in jars is not cool.
Werewolf - Just think; you can't control becoming a wolf and you have to explain your actions afterward. I think enough movies have covered just how annoying life as a werewolf can be.
totally, totally off topic, but I can't find your email for some reason and you're not on the IM at present...
saw this website and thought it right up your alley- verbal brain workout + do-gooding.
