1. Close to my hometown: Montana's zombie hoax raises concerns about EAS security

Zombies weren’t walking the streets of Great Falls on Monday afternoon,
but a false alert that aired on local CBS affiliate KRTV and its CW station
went through the same channels or frequencies on which true emergencies
are aired, raising questions and concerns of how the hoax occurred.

2. I totally don't understand the zombie phenomina. I was walking in my neighbourhood

one day a few years ago and saw blood on the cross walk button. I was wondering why when all of a sudden I noticed all these kids dressed up as zombies going by. Turns out my neighbourhood has the closest graveyard to Parliament Hill in Ottawa and there was a zombie walk going on. I had never seen or heard of it before then.

I doubt it will happen. Half of the US Congress is already composed of zombies.

If any rep tried to make a joke like that, the other side would mock him mercilessly on the 24 hour news channels.
