"Bring a Yoga Mat, Dress Like a Zombie"

I promised Zombies...

Thanks to a talented friend of mine, here they are...

Doing yoga in New York City.

Apparently zombies need their zen.



My friend Jason Wishnow is a brilliant, creative guy.

He's also enterprising.

While scouring yoga blogs convincing people to play dress-up zombie, he also managed to set up a mini-documentary on the making of the short.

How so very-DVD-extras for the short-attention-span interweb generation.



In case you need any more convincing about Jason's genius, here's an oldie but goodie of his.

Let's call it a unique, vegetarian take on Oedipus:

Still got the beat at 50?

On The Road is one of those books that everyone should read at some point.

Jack Kerouac's groundbreaking novel turns 50 this year, and Newsweek has a great piece this week talking about the book's impact and how the book world plans to celebrate.

The image the article paints of the young Kerouac writing this novel strikes me as very real and complicated. Just like people are in real life.

All I know is I want to pick up some of these new editions of On The Road when they come out, as well as some of the biographies. It's been more than a decade since I first devoured my way through almost everything Kerouac wrote. It will be interesting to see how I react to it now.
