How Do You Turn Up Missing?...

Tom Ryan: Ever since the divorce it's like my life has no purpose. Half the time, I walk around feeling like a zombie!

C. J.: Yo, don't joke about zombies. That shit there - that's real.

Mahalik: Yo, you know Nashawn, down on 120th Street?

C. J.: Yeah.

Mahalik: She told me that she heard a zombie going through her trash the other day. The next morning, she turned up missing.

Tom Ryan: Uh...

C. J.: [C.J. interrupts] What? Okay, back up. How in the hell do you "turn up missing"?

Mahalik: 'Cause nobody knows where you are when they realize you ain't there!

Tom Ryan: Guys, I'm trying to ask...

C. J.: [C.J. interrupts again] So you telling me that you can appear and disappear at the same time.

Mahalik: No, man. You can't appear and disappear at the same time. The bitch ain't David Copperfield!

Tom Ryan: Uh, guys...

C. J.: [C.J. interrupts yet again] Mmm. No, no. But you can't be gone from one place and show up somewhere else entirely. So when you turn up, you're never missing. And when you're missing, you never turn up.

Mahalik: Unless... you a zombie.

C. J.: Damn! Hey, that's some plausible shit right there. You should blog about that.

Mahalik: I'm gonna put that on MySpace.

C. J.: You do that!"

Let me know what you think and pass the thought along.
