They're coming to get you, Barbara . . .
Different kind of post today. I'm really busy, but nothing of what I'm busy with is worth posting about, although I am very proud of the fact that I cleaned out our pantry this weekend. You know it's been too long when you find Christmas Candy from 2005!
Anyway, with nothing worth posting about, and in honor of the Scary Movie Night Eric, Alan, and I will have some time soon (I hope), I have a hypothetical horror related question:
When, as the picture describes above, all the cemeteries close and zombies walk amongst us, where will you hide out and why? Jennifer and I have this conversation alot on long trips (if by conversation you mean I talk while Jennifer messes with the radio and pretends to fall asleep.)

I guess I'll just stay away from Barbara, whoever she is. Is this an actual event you expect to happen?
Nobody expects a Zombie attack, Randy, and that is why we are always caught off guard when it happens. Forewarned is forearmed, I always say.
If a Zombie attack happens I will go to school and hide out in my classroom. First -- it has no windows. Second and most important -- who wants to go to a high school math classroom dead or alive?! The only safer place might possibly be any teacher inservice if one is going on that day...the most boring place on earth. Speaking of, maybe the scariest place on earth (the It's a Small World ride) would be a good place as well. If that ride is so freaky and annoying to the living, the dead would surely not want to visit! My theory is that zombies want to take advantage of being brought back to life and not waste it in a dull place.
If I'm understanding this game correctly, the problem with locking yourself in math class is that you have no sustainable source of food or fresh water, unless your class meets in a stocked bomb shelter. And even then you're supplies will run out.
I'm not really up on zombies; they just walk around right? Can they swim? Could you get to a boat equiped with some non perishables, fishing gear, and a portable desalination unit. www.sea-pack.com has some that work without power or effort. It takes a while, so you should probably have fresh water stores on the boat do begin with. Take the boat to a deserted island to live out your days in fear.
Oh food...I'm figuring someone brave would stop it before I starved. Although school is boring as well, so the whole building would perhaps be safe...in which case I would break the vending machines or head into the cafeteria kitchen to see what I could whip up.
I have a standard answer for these kinds of things. Where am I hiding?
Super Wal-Mart in Searcy, Arkansas.
Why, may you ask?
1. Food? Check. Preprocessed and "Great Value."
2. Guns? Check. Searcy Wal-Mart has a hunting department bigger than their cosmetics department.
3. Distractions? Check. Games in Electronics, DVDs in there too.
4. Defensible? Sure. Plenty of places to hide.
I'm tellin ya, guys, it's got a lot going for it.
It's funny how this question tells so much about us as people. Randy is the long term planner, willing to make dramatic steps of personal sacrifice for long lasting rewards (although experts believe that since Zombies don't need to breathe they could probably walk under the water to follow you to the island). Andrew, by comparison, values comfort and a good Muchaco (Bueno's have too many windows for my liking). He also finds humor in all situations. Joanna finds comfort in her work and routine (as well as a brave man), and Eric misses his days in college (why the Searcy Wal-Mart in particular?) I agree with Eric that Wally world is the best place to go in the event of Zombie attack, but I'm not particular about location. So, what does that say about me?
I think Eric choose the Searcy Wal-Mart because were one of the last to give up stocking firearms. I'm not sure they do anymore, though.
What about the sharks in the ocean? Are they regular sharks or are they zombie sharks? If their regular sharks, then you bring meat and a catapult to the boat. As you set sail, fling the meat into the water where the zombies are walking. The sharks will be attacted to the meat. Then the zombies will be attracted to the sharks. Which ever survives will be easier to deal with once you get to the island.
The important thing to remember once you get to the island is to go ahead and bring all the matches with you, don't leave them on a shipwreck out at sea so you have to cross thru the shark's water to get to them.
I don't need a brave man. I am a brave woman.
