Not Trying Hard Enough

We Llamas are only No. 7 for Google hits for sock puppet singing Figaro.

Evidently, more gratuitous musickal posting is called for.

UPDATE: In the meantime, before we get into Se vuol l'argyle, Signor Contino, how about an Italian lesson?

What? You want we should go back to zombies? How about zombie sock-puppets? Operatic zombie sock-puppets! That would cross a few frontiers, I reckon.

Think of Pavarotti as a zombie.

He can sing Italian opera, and is simultaneously ravenously hungry for brains. I don't know how to work sock puppets in, unless we bring in Zombie Glenn Greenwald.

In the ZombiePavarotti/ZombiePowell/MiniDitka three way brawl, I think he comes out last. Where the Zombies are slow, MiniDitka is fast -- former-NFL-tight-end fast. While ZombiePavarotti has the size advantage, ZombiePowell is both younger and fitter -- and in grabbing the victim and going for the throat bite or viscera rip, speed still matters.

Of course, if we are talking a ZombieMiniDitka, then all bets are off. All depends on who gets the drop, er, the shamble, on the other.

I've got to disagree that size is necessarily a minus here. Weight can be very helpful when you're pinning down your victim to get at his brains - gives you more freedom to use your hands. I mean, say you introduced ZombieJabba into the match. I'd back him against a small, fast opponent (unless, of course, she's dressed in a slave costume and carrying a chain).
