Hell's, god damn, yes!

Of course, be sure that it isn't a 'voodoo' zombie and not a victim of the Solanum Microbe (not sure if it's a bacterium or virus.

If you're using a knife, always have it long with no serrations (don't want to to catch in the skull) And go for the eye of the zombie.

If you wish to use a machette (my favorite little deal) or a Shaolin Spade, be sure to chop at the neck, as a skull can catch the blade and requires much more force than the neck. Of course, this leaves the added threat of the head lying about that can bite an exposed foot, so wear a boot and watch your step.

Shotguns have poor ranges, but are a heck of a psychological boost to a group, but always have a marksman in your group to pick out the attackers from a distance (I enjoy the bolt-action variety, it forces the shooter to take their time with each target, fewer misses). I myself have a compound bow I enjoy using, but will carry around a pump-action shotgun for when the occasion calls for it.

Wear light clothes, tight clothes (the only exception I make is to wear a 'hawaiian shirt' [whatever you call them] just because of their versatility). Short hair (I keep mine short, and if the day comes and I have time for it, I'll shave it down just because I won't know which class of invasion it'll be. Pants to cover any wounds you get on your leg, and a boot-knife just cause. And a belt to holster my machette and my mallet.

I have a back-pack in my room that holds several cans of potted meat, jerky, first aid kit, several bottles of water, my harmonica, a scope from my hunting rifle (Don't like the binoculars) and a some spare arrows for my bow in a case that's sewn onto the side.

About the only thing I don't have for that inevitable day is a bike. I'll just have to improvise until I can scavenge one.

Nice! I bought that for one of my friends on his birthday last year, it was pretty funny.

Actually, I think I read somewhere that people are looking a viruses as delivery vehicles for gene therapy...
Looking at? Viruses have been used as vectors for synthesised DNA for years.
I guess I should have said, "I read somehwere... 15 years ago." I have a good memory, but a terrible internal time line. :blush:

so it's only a matter of time before they make a zombie virus then?
That's why I've been harping preparedness over the ZOMBIE HOLOCAUST that is bound to happen!

How to prepare? Have an escape plan, sleep with your weapons, and take up jogging/bike riding.

Oh, and avoid cities.
Don't forget the sign around your neck saying

Right on!

Anything frequently that close to Christian brain pustules is sure to be risky.

Not to be confused with the perennial problem of zany Paris sights.
