Yeah, but isn't it kind of like Twilight for zombies?

No, it really was an updated Romeo & Juliet (their names are R. & Julie, her friend is a nurse, his friend is M.=Mercutio). MUCH better acting than Twilight, & clever story. I liked it quite a bit more than I expected to. In fact, I want to watch it again right now :)

I never made those connections.

And when the grandkids stay here, one of the boys wakes up and first thing he asks is if he can watch Warm Bodies. I've had my fill of it, thank you very much.

Mr. Nobody, AnnaMarie stole my thunder... there are documented cases of parents ripping car doors right off the hinges to save children from fire, or people wired on crack or meth throwing cops around like rag-dolls and taking three or four killing shots without stopping before eventually being brought down (most recently that bath salts cannibal case)....
Bath salts cannibal case? Now you have me worried.

I am a big fan of Epsom salts and use them almost daily in my bathtub. So now I have about 5 or so empty Epsom salts containers to recycle (I have been stockpiling them in the corner of the bathroom).

What are the recycle guys going to think? - that I am manufacturing some kind of drugs in my home?. It's okay though cuz the Police station is three doors down so they can come over and inspect if they want - nothing to hide here!

No. I wouldn't let my grandson watch twilight.

Cute movie, but I think what I liked most about it was the killer soundtrack! All the great songs kind of took me out of the story a little, because most movies these days are just big boom crash boom sounds to go with the special effects.

Neesy, it was drug nicknamed 'bath salts'... don't know why... bizarre code-term....
I am pretty sure that you can use Epsom salts to manufacture drugs - maybe I should go Google it - I remember my son saying the cops were cracking down on them and might ban bath salt or Epsom salt - yikes! (one of my few pleasures in life these days!) I love to soak in a hot bath.

Bath salts -I attended a conference and honestly thought we were going to be talking about relaxation in bath salts. It turns out it is name they use for manufactured drugs, except the natural part is out. They said that actually bath salts are much worse for your body, than the natural. (Which makes sense considering that everything natural is usually better).
