While a little late since it's now November, in the spirit of talking about a Zombie invasion a while back I present, the Zombie Survival Guide (http://www.randomhouse.com/crown/zombiesurvivalguide/).

Well considering zombies aren't real I would say... yeah. :DFigured. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't surrounded by people who would get mad at me for calling the people who made that site idiots.

PS: When you'd become goodwill ambassador?When I started welcoming new people and being nice to them. It sucks to be somewhere you don't have any friends. So I try to be just that. A friend.

But you really, really shouldn't have had to "make sure". Of course there's no real virus that turns people into zombies, and of course the writer doesn't believe there is. Even completely plausible things on the internet are nearly always sarcastic humor, and if they aren't, you should assume it is anyway. That's the rule of thumb for ALL websites.

And there's only one person behind it. The site consists of excerpts from the popular book by Max Brooks, who is actually related to Mel Brooks.

I have said book, it's hysterical. the best part about it is that it takes itself 100% seriously, the only thing tat indicates it's a Humor book is a small little category placer on the back cover. I have to admit tho, the chapters dealing with Zombie Apcolypse are a bit unselttling. (end of the world stuff alwas creeps me out)

But the whole first chapter on Zombie physiology and how their mind works is priceless!

Hmm...seems interesting. It should be as a reference when making zombie films...so, they might go to greatness from B-movie catergory.

The only thing you need to know about zombies- When in doubt, light it on fire. Fire is a zombie's natural enemy. That, and sawed-off shotguns.

*has too recently watched Dawn, then Shaun of the Dead*

From what I saw of the excerpts it seems to be done in a bit of the Resident Evil style.

Greatest book ever. "Zombies Throughout History" kept me busy during the commute to class every morning last semester.
