    tune: “Zip,” Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart, Pal Joey,  1940

    Plip! My machine keeps spitting out ce-re-brums
    Plip! Now the zombies are so stuffed they need Tums
    Plip! I think we just stopped an a-po-ca-lypse
    Plip! Me and Sergio and Nick, near my nips
    Zombies make me scream in terror
    Sergio, I made an error
    Plip! Locked you out, scared to look
    Though you think that Tip is cuter
    Any man who quotes Neruda
    Plip! Is okay in my book
    Plip! If we all survive the night on this train
    Plip! You can thank my instant braaaaaains!

        Then, if Ginny did the striptease that goes with that song, she’d be Ginny Rose Lee!

    given Godot’s messing w/ instructions – a just plain dispenser makes perfect sense to me.

    If she doesn’t see a problem with a machine that cannot be turned off which churns out an unending supply of objects, she’s definitely not seeing the big picture.

      Presumeably the machine will eventually run out of raw materials. If she’s built a machine that can create brains Ex Nihilo, she’s definitely burst the sanity barrier.

      an off can be installed AFTER the rest of the pending disaster has been resolved. Until then – fed zombies means no rampage.

    Future generations will tell the story of Why The Sea Is Brains.

    Time to call Unity back…. Also, Virginia is up to her knees in brains… in skirts.

    (TUNE: “Who’ll Stop The Rain”, Creedence Clearwater Revival)

    Here aboard St. Charlie,
    Look what I have made!
    Zombies come for dinner,
    They need a Rolaid!
    See the feeding frenzy
    Rocking through the train!
    Thoughts returning, stomachs churning,
    Who’ll stop the brains?

    Now how will we stop it?
    See Virginia shrug …
    There’s no switch atop it,
    We’ll just pull the plug!
    Move the pile of brains now,
    But still more remain!
    I don’t doubt it’s getting crowded …
    Who’ll stop the brains??

    Piled up to the walls now,
    All across the floor,
    Way up to the ceiling,
    Pushed us out the door!
    Just like that apprentice
    Of “Fantasia” fame …
    Pile keeps growing, never slowing,
    Who’ll stop the brains?!!

    Anyone else imagining a ravening horde of zombies descending upon St. Charlie’s drugstore car?

    Just out of curiosity, does anyone know whether brains would really keep their shape like that? I always sort of imagined that they needed the skull to keep them in shape, but that’s just how I pictured it, I don’t have any special knowledge.

      Wait ….. Sergio sent the dogs back to the Engine?

      The killer attack dogs that only understand German?

      Is anyone left in the Engine room?

      And do they speak German?

        Sergio reminds me a lot of Artie. He tends to forget that not everyone around him is a supergenius.

      sorry, first post wasn’t supposed to be a reply *facedesk*.

      re: brains

      From what I have seen – on TV shows that don’t have scriptwriters and also [very occasionally] on shows that have food critics on the judging panel – brains tend to keep their shape when removed.

    – Neurosurgeon experiments on brains.
    – Dispenser provides endless supply of material.
    What problem?

    That machine is plippin’ cool.

    Sounds like a grey-matter goo scenario.

    I’m not apologizing.

    *MaaaaAAAAAaaalox*
