So yesterday I talked about building a Bug-Out Bag with the Zombie Apocalypse in mind. Grabbing the bag gets you out the door and safely away from your soon to be overrun residence. Now you are out in the world, working your way to a temporary safe location. The problem is, where do you go, [...]

Zombie Apocalypse: “Go Bag” Gear List
Stop. Imagine for a moment, you’re at home, enjoying a nice relaxing afternoon, reading your favorite blog, and suddenly you realize… the Zombie Apocalypse has hit. Outside of your window you see the undead wandering about. Shit, things are going south and they are going fast. You need to get your gear and get out [...]
Zombie Apocalypse: Choose your weapon
It’s a question I’m sure we’ve all struggled with at one time or another… What weapon would you choose in the event of zombies? Basically, you have two broad categories: 1. Melee 2. Ranged
Zombie Review: Highschool of the Dead
Recently a friend recommended to me a new manga by the name of “Highschool of the Dead” (Editor’s note: the manga uses “highschool” as one word, so when referring to the title we will as well, though the correct use is 2 words: high school). He described to me the basic story following high school [...]
Zombie Review: Gungrave
A friend recently recommended some new anime to me: Gungrave. Some of the guys that did Trigun were involved in this as well which also piqued my interest. Gungrave is about the same length as Trigun (approximately 650 minutes), so it is a fairly quick watch. Overall I found it quite amusing, except for one [...]

We talked about doing a series of posts for it, which eventually turned into a week, which eventually got done. Tada! This [...]
Review: Crackdown 2
Crackdown 2 came out earlier this week. I was slightly surprised when I got the shipping notification, because I thought it came out in September. When I broached this topic with Jon he informed me that I was thinking of Halo Reach. After playing the demo (back when I thought it came out in September), [...]
The Ultimate “End of the World” Vehicle
Recently John and I got onto the topic of “End of the World” vehicles (Editor’s note: For certain values of “recently”). Would a big RV work? It has lots of space, though it has poor gas mileage and isn’t very maneuverable. What about a big pickup truck? Lots of cargo space, better gas millage, can [...]
Zombie Attack at Hierakonpolis
I’m one of those people that watches Zombie flicks and mentally takes notes on how I would have reacted in that situation. Most people seem to think that this is a completely useless talent. Now, after years of torment I have evidence to the contrary! http://www.archaeology.org/online/features/hierakonpolis/zombies.html “What’s this?” you say. Well, for those of you [...]
