Zombies

Zombie’s have changed since the days of spooky movies made in the 30’s, when it was a Haitian Voodoo Priestess who had the power to bring the dead to life with a few potions and spells (The kind of great horror movies as shown on Pittsburgh’s own Chiller Theater)…The first major Zombie iteration happened when Pittsburgher George Romero wrote “Night of the Living Dead”, and the world discovered that the undead could and would hunt you down for your brains. (No matters how intelligent or stupid you were). From the creative talents of Mr Romero, Zombie’s have thrived and become relevant cultural phenomena and are now a main stay of any good Sci-Fi flick or TV series. Zombie rules and regulations have changed with only a few constants throughout their invention; they will multiply, they are hungry, and NO matter your religion, color of skin, gender identity, nationality or sexual preference, YOU too can become a Zombie. And oh yeah, Zombies may be dead, but they will make sure you join them and become a part of the Living Dead. Anyone who has watched a horror movie, understands that if you are stupid enough to enter a dark forbidden house, you never go to the attic or journey or the basement, and you never EVER split up searching for a flashlight or a weapon. There IS one rule to survive a Zombie Holocaust, and that is, to stop a Zombie in its track, because like cockroaches, A SINGLE ZOMBIE will become a dozen in no time. If you haven’t taken precautions ahead of time you will have a ‘Yuge’, Zombie mess on your hands. And if you pretend the guy or gal eating the bowels of your best friend is just hungry, you are an idiot!


Zombie’s have invaded the Republican Party, these newest monsters love to eat democracy. They thrive on destroying freedoms, equality, fairness and justice, and grow stronger and multiple the more that is denied and less that is given. We were warned about an impending Zombie invasion, but just like in the movies, many of us said, not in my country, OR, anyone is better than that Zombie like lady running for president, OR we were well on our Zombie way of life before, so maybe this newest Zombie will be a kinder Zombie, you know a Zombie just like us! We were also told by wanna be Zombie hunters, that the Orange Zombie could not even make it to one hour after his Inauguration because the Orange Zombie had broken so many laws, he would be impeached the minute he removed his hand from the Bible (Yeah, that book, the same one apparently written by the same guy in the sky who loves him the NRA and death panels). Well, all you Zombie Genre lovin’ folks, you know and I know, that if a Zombie ain’t stopped before his first bite, a whole lot of people are gonna get infected and die, and just walk the Earth empty but always hungry, till eternity. The Zombie infestation is here, we had been warned…the more we wait, the worse its gonna get!
