CDC: Be Prepared for the Zombie Apocalypse

Yeah, it's real.

I'm not sure that having the family meeting place being the mailbox is all that good of an idea in this case, though.

The CDC has a sense of humor?.............I hope it does not extend to real pathogen outbreaks.

Not to get sidetracked here, but if there was a zombie apocalypse, I might have a problem.

Past few years, we have had "zombie walks" here.

World Zombie Day

So for me, seeing zombies walking around is no big deal.

Guess I better get a plan together.
