Zombie Response

Chuck - As you know, your previous post is not a new topic between you and I. Over the last several years, I've gained a great insight regarding your mindset and attitude towards zombies. You made a lot of good points and brought up some valuable questions. I also like the movie references...it is, at this point one of the only tools we can use to anticipate what a zombie might do during a "zombie invasion." Let me throw this at you though...Can we really use the movies in that way? Can we really assume that a zombie would do what we see them do in the movies? The zombies in the movies are only special effects or people that are told to do "zombie things", they are not actually zombies nor are zombies giving any true direction on the set (if they were, the invasion may have already begun). It's all a big "zombie assumption" - follow me? Here's what I'm getting at - how prepared can we actually be? Lastly, you mentioned your wife's ability to reproduce and clear your head...are those two seperate entities or an act that's one-in-the-same? Thought I'd "clear" that up.

Zombies and their effect on my life.

Zombies have long been a running theme in my life. I think about Zombies at a bare minimum 2-3 times a day. I can only assume that everyone else does too. The most reaccuring theme that seems to come up when talking of Zombies are... What do you do? Where do you go? And finally, Who do you bring with you? The answer to the first question is always, run..... Just run.... Get the hell out of dodge. Protect yourself... Right.... Second question is always a constant. Get your ass to a wal-mart or a Sam's as soon as possible. Dawn of the dead uses a mall, but that is just to big to secure. A wal-mart or Sam's can be secured, all while providing food and ammo. The third question addresses who you would bring. I initially would only want to save myself, but being married definitley changes some things. I would have to take my wife, she provides a stable relationship and helps clear my head. Although she might slow me down she would serve a purpose, if not for her reproductive capabilities. I would like to take my dog, but if you watch 28 day later as well as dawn of the dead, the profound attachement to the friendly canine can be deadly. Boswell (My dog) doesn't make the cut. Sorry buddy. Unless you have some time of Anti-Zombie solution in your blood, you can't come. Alright. I'm sure I will have plently more to add in the future. But I think this is a solid first post. Please let me know your thoughts.

First Post

Prior to writing this initial posting, i juggled a few topics in my head. Should i write about sports, movies, music, current events, etc? Finally, i decided that nothing was better to write about in the initial posting than - the initial posting. See, how could any one topic be chosen for the initial posting without setting some sort of theme right off the bat? I like the idea of a "themeless" blog, for now. I bet a theme will develop soon, but not because of this posting. As for the blog's name, it's clever, but tentative - which reminds me.....
Hey, Tiny, who's playing today?
Jolly Green Giants and the Shitty Beetles.
Shitty Beetles? Are they any good?
They suck.
Then it's not just a clever name.
.......that won't start a theme, will it?
