Being Prepared for a Zombie Attack?

[Wifezilla]

Not to worry the gooberment will save us.

We saw zombieland yesterday with our sons. TOO FUNNY! Just copy down the list of rules from that movie and you will be set.

After we got back from the movie and dropped off our oldest at his barracks, the CQ told him he had to report tomorrow for his vaccinations......

"Don't take it personal if I have to double tap you son..."

LOL​

if zombies were the only problem it would be a good life.
As long as the power stays available I am very well prepared to garden indoors. or fuel for a generator or more.
between grow lights, aero gardens, and plenty of rabbit poop I can pretty well grow everything except peppers.( too high nitrogen content in rabbit manure)
but hence the aero garden. lights on the garden being the more inprotant that the grow packs they sell for them.

very self proficient in fire arms off all sorts , though never shot a cannon. but some one else mentioned " might be fun to learn"

I would likely get sick of eggs, chicken, rabbit after a while and have to pretend to be a zombie to get to a store for some sort of other protein. but other than that pretty well set for the end time.

Boyd, when you get that book done be sure to let us know where to get a copy.
I love a good story.

Thanks Boyd...one more thing to add to my 'things to be anxious about' list.

If it ever comes down to that:

I can hotwire a car
Build a variety of explosive devices
Plant a garden
Make snares
Hunt with a homemade bow and arrow
Field dress game
Cure meat
Bake bread
Weave cloth
Make beer
Build a still
Build a kiln
Build a house, for that matter
Use a sword properly in combat
Correctly load and fire a cannon
Build a catapult
Wire and use a ham radio
Set a broken bone
Perform CPR
Build a chariot
Preserve fruits and veggies
Make cheese, yogurt, and butter
Smelt several types of metal
Make gunpowder
Craft my own ammunition

I think I'm pretty well set.

Also, I don't believe in zombies, so they will promptly poof out of existence when setting foot on my property just like the vampires do.

I wanna move next door to GrayDragon lol

All but the first two I learned there. Those I learned in high school from the kid I was tutoring in math. A good deal, I taught him how to factor, he taught me how to jimmy a lock and hotwire a car. Got me home from a camp ground one time when my sister accidentally took my car keys with her. All the gear and food was already packed into the locked car. At first I thought I'd just locked the keys in the car and was glad I didn't have to break the window (found a hanger we'd use for roasting marshmellows). Once I figured out what happened to the keys, I just hotwired the stupid thing and drove home, hoping I wouldn't get pulled over. 'But Officer, I assure the car is mine, you see my purse (with driver's license) is in my sister's car so I had to break into and hotwire this one.'

I should build another full-sized loom, but spinning wool is a pain in the tuckus.

I will but this is my first attempt at writing for the 12+ crowd so I don't know how good it'll be. My kids love it so far so I must be doing something good I guess. I am basically free writing without an outline and when I go back through for editing, I add humerus things here and there .... its taking a while to write a 100 page story!!!!

I don't know about publishing it though since it falls into the novella/novelette for young readers.... and its too long for a magazine.... so I may just write this one and maybe do it into a series till I have enough for a novel. I will be looking for an agent and publisher though..... because getting 25/50$ for magazines isn't too great besides seeing yourself in print.

We have a zombie preparedness plan. Two actually.

One for "fast" zombies, one for "slow"zombies. "When the zombies come" is a common phrase at our house. Sometimes it is wistful, sometimes it is serious.

Still working on the "When zombies and vampires attack" plan. Too many variables.

 

[TheOLDNewChick]

Let's see. Lots of guns with lots of ammo, bow & arrows, over 350 wooded acres, a five acre pond fully stocked. Lots of gardening room, which means lots of room to mend the fences that're already there and raise cattle, pigs, etc. to slaughter for food.

I MIGHT be safe.
