<div>Alex Landgraf (December 23, 2022–December 24, 2062) was an American lawyer who, until their death at the age of 40 years and one day, was the oldest living person in the United States after the Zombie Apocalypse of 2038 killed 99.99% of people living in the country. <br />
== Early Life ==<br />
[[File:Tutwiler hall exploding.jpg|thumb|Tutwiler Hall, Alex's dorm at the University of Alabama, two days after they dropped out and started their road trip to Alaska. The building was demolished to forestall the zombie takeover, as it spread most quickly through UA's Greek life.]]<br />
Alex was born on December 23, 2022, in Chicago, Illinois, to Jason Landgraf (1989–2038) and Christina Landgraf (née Riewer; 1987–2038). They lived in Aurora, Illinois for 18 years before their boyfriend at the time became patient zero for ''Ophiocordyceps unilateralis'' in humans, which started the Zombie Apocalypse of 2038. To avoid drama after a messy breakup, Alex started college at the University of Alabama, which bought them some time to escape. <br />
== Career ==<br />
Alex dropped out of college after six months at the University of Alabama, just in time for the zombie hordes to reach the south. They travelled northwest to find themselves and complete their education. Once they finished law school and passed the Alaska Bar Exam, they finally noticed the zombies everywhere. They decided to represent the zombies in a class action lawsuit for medical malpractice, as it was found out that doctors all across the United States were shooting their patients instead of treating them. The 15 billion dollar settlement allowed them to settle down in Juneau and never work another day. <br />
== Personal Life ==<br />
[[File:Popcorn.jpg|thumb|Alex's rabbit, Popcorn, moments before infecting them with rabies.]]During their expedition to Alaska, Alex met Gwen Mitchell, who was put in charge of a community resource center in Juneau. Gwen was attacked by a zombie that attempted to enter a medical tent, when she fell over and spilled an absurdly large stack of papers all over the floor. Alex went to help her pick up the papers when their hands accidentally touched; they stayed together for the rest of their lives. <br />
<br />
== Health and Longevity ==<br />
Alex had a few major illnesses, including sciatica from 2037 to 2062. In 2062, they began to display erratic behavior, which made people think they had finally been infected by ''Ophiocordyceps unilateralis'', but they had in fact contracted rabies after adopting a feral rabbit named Popcorn that lived under their porch. They both survived the disease, which Alex attributed to staying active and minding their own business. After surviving rabies, Alex reported that their sciatica had completely disappeared. Before medical scientists could begin researching their miraculous recovery, they died from the common cold, which they had caught after going outside without a sweater on. <br />
== Real Introduction ==<br />
Alex is a student at the University of Alabama and the president of UA's philosophy club. <br />

=== What I found funny recently: ===<br />
My friends and I have been sending each other music video remixes of old commercials. My current favorite is the remix of the Hhgregg "Christmas in July" commercial with Daft Punk's "Doin' it Right" because it's actually really good. Somehow that makes it funnier.<br />
<br />
=== Potentially Humorous Incident: ===<br />
I just recently put in my two weeks notice for my job as a math tutor. The next day, one of my students asked for my work schedule so she could have me as her tutor more often. This is the second time that this has happened to me at a tutoring job. I feel bad that these kids like me that much, but not bad enough to stay.[[File:The Blacksmith Child Screenshot.jpg|thumb|I'm not going to lie: he looks a little evil.]]<br />

<div>Alex Landgraf (December 23, 2022–December 24, 2062) was an American lawyer who, until their death at the age of 40 years and one day, was the oldest living person in the United States after the Zombie Apocalypse of 2038 killed 99.99% of people living in the country. <br />
== Early Life ==<br />
Alex was born on December 23, 2022, in Chicago, Illinois, to Jason Landgraf (1989–2038) and Christina Landgraf (née Riewer; 1987–2038). They lived in Aurora, Illinois for 18 years before their boyfriend at the time became patient zero for ''Ophiocordyceps unilateralis'' in humans, which started the Zombie Apocalypse of 2038. To avoid drama after a messy breakup, Alex started college at the University of Alabama, which bought them some time to escape. <br />
<br />
== Career ==<br />
Alex dropped out of college after six months at the University of Alabama, just in time for the zombie hordes to reach the south. After traveling northwest to find themselves and finish their education, they represented the zombies in a class action lawsuit for medical malpractice, as it was found out that doctors all across the United States were shooting their patients instead of treating them. The settlement of around 15 billion dollars allowed them to settle down in Juneau, Alaska, and never work another day. [[File:Tutwiler hall exploding.jpg|thumb|Tutwiler Hall, Alex's dorm at the University of Alabama, two days after they dropped out and started their road trip to Alaska. The building was demolished to forestall the zombie takeover, as it spread most quickly through UA's Greek life.]]<br />
<br />
== Personal Life ==<br />
During their expedition to Alaska, Alex met Gwen Mitchell, who was put in charge of a community resource center in Juneau. Gwen was attacked by a zombie that attempt to enter a medical tent, when she fell over and spilled an absurdly large stack of papers all over the floor. Alex went to help her pick up the papers when their hands accidentally touched; they stayed together for the rest of their lives. <br />
<br />
== Health and Longevity ==<br />
Alex had a few major illnesses, including sciatica and rabies in 2036. It was thought that they had finally succumbed to ''Ophiocordyceps unilateralis'', but they had in fact contracted rabies after adopting a feral rabbit named Popcorn that lived under their porch. They both miraculously survived the disease, which Alex attributed to staying active and minding their own business. They finally died from the common cold two years later, which they had caught after going outside without a sweater on. <br />
<br />
[[File:Popcorn.jpg|thumb|Alex's rabbit, Popcorn, moments before infecting them with rabies.]]<br />
<br />
== Real Introduction ==<br />
Alex is a student at the University of Alabama and the president of UA's philosophy club. <br />
<br />
=== What I found funny recently: ===<br />
My friends and I have been sending each other music video remixes of old commercials. My current favorite is the remix of the Hhgregg "Christmas in July" commercial with Daft Punk's "Doin' it Right" because it's actually really good. Somehow that makes it funnier.<br />
<br />
=== Potentially Humorous Incident: ===<br />
I just recently put in my two weeks notice for my job as a math tutor. The next day, one of my students asked for my work schedule so she could have me as her tutor more often. This is the second time that this has happened to me at a tutoring job. I feel bad that these kids like me that much, but not bad enough to stay.[[File:The Blacksmith Child Screenshot.jpg|thumb|I'm not going to lie: he looks a little evil.]]<br />

<div>The Blacksmith is a 1922 American short [[comedy film]] co-written, co-directed by and featuring [[Buster Keaton]]<ref>"Progressive Silent Film List: The Blacksmith". ''Silent Era''. Retrieved September 19, 2022.</ref>. Buster plays an assistant blacksmith to the boss played by [[Joe Roberts]], with predictable results. The film runs for around 22 minutes.<br />
<br />
== Plot ==<br />
[[File:The Blacksmith Boy With Slingshot.jpg|thumb|The boy readies his slingshot moments before disaster.]]<br />
The film begins with some children watching Buster, an assistant blacksmith, do his work. His boss arrives, chasing the children away. Once his boss catches him cooking a meal on the fire, Buster pretends to work by hammering the plate, ruining the food. He burns both of his feet and his behind on a hot horseshoe, putting each into a bucket of water to cool off. His boss has him bring a hammer outside, but it is attracted to the large magnet above the door of the shop. This happens again with another hammer, then the wagon wheel. His boss starts hitting him and the sheriff tries to stop the fight, but he loses his badge and his gun to the magnet. They try to arrest the boss, which is helped by Buster releasing all of the magnetized tools on top of his head. <br />
<br />
A horsewoman then enters the shop to buy some horseshoes. The horse does not like the options Buster tries until it sees some nice ones in a glass case. The horsewoman buys the nice horseshoes and leaves the shop. Another woman enters asking for something that will make horse riding less bumpy. Buster brings out a saddle shock-absorber, which makes it difficult for the woman to mount the horse, since it is so tall. But she seems pleased and leaves the shop. <br />
[[File:The Blacksmith Water Tower Gag.jpg|thumb|Buster releases water from a water tower onto the angry mob.]]<br />
A child enters with a balloon and Buster uses it to lift the car he is working on, but the child pops the balloon using a slingshot, which makes the car fall and break the floor. A man with a white car enters and leaves it for Buster to work on. Soon after, Buster has covered the car in oil, dented the hood, smashed the windows with a hammer, and burned the side with a welding torch. He then lifts an engine by a pulley and smashes the new car with it. The horse with the new saddle comes into the shop alone, and the boss returns just as Buster tries to leave. The boss tries to attack Buster, but they mostly end up damaging the new car even more. Buster lifts the boss up with the pulley and cuts the rope, which makes him fall onto the new car. The man and the second horsewoman return, and Buster runs away. He is dragged along the ground by a horse and gets caught in some railroad tracks. <br />
<br />
The first horsewoman stops on the street to look at an uncovered pothole, but an explosion goes off inside it, scaring her horse into running. The train stops just before hitting Buster, and he runs away. The horse runs by and Buster catches the horsewoman. After saving her, he moves her ring to her left hand. Everyone catches up to them, but Buster pulls a rope which dumps water on their heads. They run away, jump on the back of a train, and ride off together. The final scene shows Buster fixing a model train in a living room while the horsewoman holds their new baby. <br />

The film was originally called The Village Blacksmith, but the title along with numerous scenes were changed after receiving a negative pre-release review from James Quirk, an editor from the popular movie magazine ''Photoplay''. To improve pacing, some repetitive scenes were removed and more slapstick scenes outside of the blacksmith shop were added. Keaton was reportedly disheartened by the production process and considered the film "a dud," even though it ultimately made a decent profit and was well-received by critics.<ref>Curtis, James.

<div>The Blacksmith is a 1922 American short [[comedy film]] co-written, co-directed by and featuring [[Buster Keaton]]<ref>"Progressive Silent Film List: The Blacksmith". ''Silent Era''. Retrieved September 19, 2022.</ref>. Buster plays an assistant blacksmith to the boss played by [[Joe Roberts]], with predictable results. The film runs for around 22 minutes.<br />
<br />
== Plot ==<br />
The film begins with some children watching Buster, an assistant blacksmith, do his work. His boss arrives, chasing the children away. Once his boss catches him cooking a meal on the fire, Buster pretends to work by hammering the plate, ruining the food. He burns both of his feet and his behind on a hot horseshoe, putting each into a bucket of water to cool off. His boss has him bring a hammer outside, but it is attracted to the large magnet above the door of the shop. This happens again with another hammer, then the wagon wheel. His boss starts hitting him and the sheriff tries to stop the fight, but he loses his badge and his gun to the magnet. They try to arrest the boss, which is helped by Buster releasing all of the magnetized tools on top of his head. <br />
<br />
A horsewoman then enters the shop to buy some horseshoes. The horse does not like the options Buster tries until it sees some nice ones in a glass case, which the horsewoman buys. He stains one side of the white horse with the dirt on his hands, but the horsewoman does not notice and leaves the shop. Another woman enters asking for something that will make horse riding less bumpy. Buster brings out a saddle shock-absorber, which makes it difficult for the woman to mount the horse, since it is so tall. But she seems pleased and leaves the shop. <br />
<br />
A child enters with a balloon and Buster uses it to lift the car he is working on, but the child pops the balloon using a slingshot, which makes the car fall and break the floor. A man with a white car enters and leaves it for Buster to work on. Soon after, Buster has covered the car in oil, dented the hood, smashed the windows with a hammer, and burned the side with a welding torch. He then lifts an engine by a pulley and smashes the new car with it. The horse with the new saddle comes into the shop alone, and the boss returns just as Buster tries to leave. The boss tries to attack Buster, but they mostly end up damaging the new car even more. Buster lifts the boss up with the pulley and cuts the rope, which makes him fall onto the new car. The man and the second horsewoman return, and Buster runs away. He is dragged along the ground by a horse and gets caught in some railroad tracks. <br />
<br />
The first horsewoman shows her parents the horse and her mother screams, so the horse gets scared and runs away. The train stops just before hitting Buster, and he runs away. The horse runs by and Buster catches the horsewoman, who gives him money in appreciation. Instead, he moves her ring to her left hand. Everyone catches up to them, but Buster pulls a rope which dumps water on their heads. They jump on the back of a train and ride off together. <br />

=== What I found funny recently: ===<br />
My friends and I have been sending each other music video remixes of old commercials. My current favorite is the remix of the Hhgregg "Christmas in July" commercial with Daft Punk's "Doin' it Right" because it's actually really good. Somehow that makes it funnier.<br />
