According to movies, tv shows, books and video games it's inevitable. It's not a matter of if it will happen, it's a matter of when. Dum Dum DUMM… the Zombie apocalypse.
As the human race evolves this once far fiction situation is eerily becoming more and more plausible. New more powerful viruses are springing up everywhere, whether from natural means, by-products of our lifestyles, or for the conspiracy theorists out there, from some biological experiment in some underground laboratory gone wrong. It seems like it is only a matter of time before you wake up one morning to find your tv broadcasting scenes of the dead coming back to life with an insatiable thirst for flesh, blood and of course brainsssss.

Throughout the years the human race has had a strange addiction with this doomsday prediction (myself included), and it has been explored in thousands of different way. With shows like The Walking Dead popping up these doomsday talks are drastically increasing and I've overheard more than a few conversations of people discussing how to survive the zombie plague.
Now don't get me wrong, I'm not some wack-job hanging out on city corners wearing a doomsday sign made from cardboard and left over silver paint I was just huffing. But I do enjoy a good conversation about how to survive zombie world, and for some reason I have a bit of a strange interest in all things zombie. More than once I have found myself forming a "Zombie Plan" in my head or talking about the "what if's" with friends.
The weird part is I have found more than one person out there that has their own "Zombie Plan" and it's strange how similar, or different these can be. So this is where the blog comes in. I have more than enough thoughts bouncing around in my head that having a place to write them all down and share them couldn't hurt. Plus, as I've mentioned, I've meet a fair number of people with their own zombie plans and this could be a great place to share those thoughts. As much fun as it sounds tearing around the city streets by yourself in some jacked up hummer playing your own made up game of zombie roadkill… Eventually playing cards with the mannequin from the lingerie shop, and trying to hold deep conversations with the stray dog you just found by the ransacked Taco Bell is going to to drive you bat shit crazy. So having some friends along may be a good thing.
And hell, you never know. Maybe one day you will find yourself in a blind panic trying to escape a city full of brain munching zombies and the difference between you becoming a legendary post appocalyptic survivalist or a pile of steaming zombie shit in an alley could be this blog.
After watching the first couple eps of walking dead, I too began formulating plans for my home.
ReplyDeleteThis was in the town house. I discovered a 3 story town home like ours was really one of the best places to fortify.
With minimal entrance points from the ground. IF some how they got in they had 3 floors to climb. Locking of each floor would be easy enough, but even then, if they still got past. Each of those. The bed room door would hold up long enough for an escape in to the attic.
This is where you go next door and fortify again.
