just because you are doesn't mean we all are. Some of us are vegetarian/vegan so I don't see how your scenario could be true for those of us who never eat brains and who don't plan on starting anytime ever. duh

As a result of the constant radiation, these formerly normal cows have sprouted a second independent head. Brahmin have eight stomachs, and male brahmin have four testicles. Their skin has turned a toasty, dusty orange-red color from the fallout exposure and their horns have become a dirty brown. In addition, their udder has increased in size.

I will admit that I have to keep them locked in the basement, and I have to feed them raw human flesh when they get hungry, which is not easy to find btw ... I have to have it shipped in from China.

But we love to watch sports on TV together. The day before a big game, I don't feed them, so when the game comes on, and they see all that fresh meat on the plasma screen, they get as loud as any stadium crowd. I mean the whole house is rocking!!!

They make a nasty mess win or lose ... but just hose them down after feeding time, they don't smell too bad, and they sleep like babies.

Well, that, and eating human flesh ... but once you take care of their need for human flesh (which I admit is not easy), they become some of the most loyal sports fans you will ever meet.

I mean how many non-zombies do you know who will EAT the supporters of the opposing team? That's dedication!!

I've trained my zombie pals by making sure that all of the fresh meat I feed them wears a Dallas Cowboy uniform.

btw .. I must assume you are watching the Walking Dead.

I'm a big Zombie fan, but I only found WD recently ... my 12 year old daughter found out about it at a sleep over (ha).

So she and I have started watching it on Netflicks, but we're only up to episode 3 first season, but we've also seen some parts of the last couple episodes of season 2.

Do you know what happened in the finale for season 2? I ask because after we watched the first 2 episodes she and I started to discuss survival strategies ... and we started to think that finding an abandoned prison would be a good idea. It would be like a fortress if you could secure it.

I've heard internet rumors that in the season 2 finale, the survivors end up near a prison ... do you know if that's true? My daughter loves the show, but it is kind of scary, and so I want to give her some idea of what is going to happen.

We happened to catch part of the episode in which Rick kills Shane, so she knows neither of them dies until late in season 2. And she was no Shane fan.

...where were all those zombies migrating to on Walking Dead?

Do you suppose we're going to see a jump from the zombie to alien genre and the big ship is calling them to bring them home like ET?

Or is this going to take the Stephenie Meyer route and it turns into a gruesome version of The Host?

the zombies will start to congregate to listen to cheesy music so they can evolve and control non-infected people through their thoughts.

32. You are in danger of becoming a quisling
Tue Mar 20, 2012, 09:06 AM

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Quisling&defid=4723494

During a Zombie-pocalypse a quisling is any person who has become so physiologically disturbed that he/she subconsciously convinces him or herself that they are one of the walking dead. A quisling will imitate a zombie perfectly and will attempt to feed on a normal human should it encounter one. A quisling's bite is NOT infectious. Because a quisling is not truly one of the undead, a quisling can be killed like a normal human, not just with a head shot.
"Shit dude! It bit me!"

"Don't worry about it bro, it was only a quisling. You'll be fine."


Better get you priorities straight

Something is attracting them. Maybe they're migrating south because the winter is coming? Maybe the CDC has figured out how to get their attention and are sending out a beacon to collect them for mass extermination?
