Memorable quotes for

Dawn of the Dead (2004)


CJ: Not to shit on anyone's riff here, but let me just see if I grasp this concept, ok? You're suggesting that we take some fucking parking shuttles, and reinforce them with some aluminum siding, and then just head on over to the gun store and watch our good friend Andy play some cowboy movie jump-on-the-covered-wagon bullshit. Then, we're gonna drive across a ruined city, through a welcome committee of a few hundred thousand dead cannibals, all so that we can sail off into the sunset on this fucking asshole's boat?

[Points to Steve]

CJ: And head for some island that for all we know doesn't even exist?

Kenneth: Yeah.

Tucker: Pretty much, yeah.

Ana: [nods her head]

Michael: Yeah.

Steve: [gives a sarcastically enthusiastic "thumb up"]

CJ: Okay... I'm in.

2011 St. Louis tornado

The 2011 St. Louis tornado, also called the Good Friday Tornado, was a storm that struck the St. Louis metropolitan area on April 22, 2011. The tornado, the strongest to impact St. Louis County or City since January 1967, was rated an EF4 at its strongest point with winds exceeding 165 mph. In its 22-mile track across the St. Louis metropolitan area, it damaged approximately two hundred homes, left thousands without power, and made a direct hit on the main terminal of Lambert-St. Louis International Airport, causing the airport to be completely shutdown for just under 24 hours.


Tornado strikes the airport

At approximately 8:10PM, the tornado struck Lambert-St. Louis International Airport, the state of Missouri's largest airport. When the tornado hit, there were three aircraft on the tarmac with passengers on-board, as well as numerous passengers and other individuals in various locations inside of the airport's terminals.

Lambert Airport released surveillance video showing debris swirling inside the airport. It was reported that an aircraft was moved away from its jetway by the storm, with passengers still on-board. One plane from Southwest Airlines was damaged when the wind pushed a conveyor belt used for loading baggage into it. American Airlines said that four of its planes were damaged, two of them significantly. One was buffeted by 80 MPH crosswinds while taxiing in from a landing when the tornado hit and the other has possible damage to its landing gear. On April 23, the tornado was rated an EF2 storm at the time that it struck the airport.

Tornado causes injuries at St. Louis airport

By JIM SALTER and JIM SUHR | Associated Press | Apr 22, 2011 11:52 PM CDT in US

An apparent tornado tore through a section of St. Louis' Lambert Field on Friday, lifting the roof off a concourse, injuring several people and forcing the airport's closure.


At Lambert, installation and roofing tile was strewn about the inside and outside of one terminal. Large, plate-glass windows were blown out, at times left lying on the exterior walkways. A shuttle was teetering precariously from the top level of a parking garage.

LUNAR LEGACY APOLLO 17 1972/2002 / THREE DECADES AGO, WITH THE FLIGHT OF APOLLO 17, EARTHLINGS KICKED UP MOON DUST FOR THE LAST TIME. / The final landing

MARK CARREAU Staff

FRI 12/06/2002

Houston Chronicle

The ultimate strangers in a strange land, travel-weary astronauts Gene Cernan and Harrison "Jack" Schmitt huddled in their tiny Apollo 17 lunar lander, ate military-issue omelets, harmonized "good morning to you" and stumbled through a silly parody of The Night Before Christmas.

The date was Dec. 14, 1972, the day America retreated from the moon.

Apollo 17, launched 30 years ago Saturday, represents the closing chapter in an awe-inspiring series of a half-dozen, 240,000-mile expeditions that unfolded over a dizzying 42 months. The Apollo program delivered a dozen American astronauts to the moon's rugged terrain for an unprecedented, firsthand look at another world.

Cernan and Schmitt had spent 75 hours on the lunar surface in a boulder-strewn, mountain valley known as Taurus-Littrow. While there, they took three grueling moon walks totaling 22 hours and covered 20 miles in a battery-powered lunar rover, collecting samples of the craters, rocks and mountain slopes.

Giddy with exhaustion, they were ready to come home.

As their final day on the moon wore on, light-hearted banter with Mission Control in Houston became serious as Cernan, the commander, and Schmitt, the pilot, turned their attention to the checklist they had to complete before the fragile spacecraft could leave for Earth.

Finally, at 4:56 p.m. CST, Cernan turned to Schmitt for a final exchange, "OK, Jack, let's get this mother outta here."

Schmitt jabbed a control panel button that sparked the spacecraft's ascent rocket in response and announced, "Ignition."

With those last words, the boxy lunar lander leaped away in a cloud of dust and gravel. Cernan, the last human to walk on the moon, and Schmitt, the only trained scientist ever to make the voyage, were headed back to Earth with 243 pounds of moon rocks.
