Max Brooks has a great book World War Z out that details the various methods people used to (try) to survive when the Zombie outbreak occurred.

From man made forts to living on a nuclear powered submarine and island, etc...   very interesting read.  Because all the scenarios that you could think of have been laid out and how each one failed.

I have heard of that.  Sounds like a good read.

I love apocalyptic films but good ones are hard to find.

Knowing (2009)  Nicolas Cage film about the end of the world
Last Night (1998)  a film about the last night of the world.
28 Days Later (2002) Not the end but a great zombie film
Night of the living Dead (1990) Not literally the end but a good zombie film

Those just popped into my head.  Any recommendations?


The Road (2009) is one of my all time favs

What was that recent doomsday movie with John Cusack?  It wasn't half bad.

I have a hard time reading his books tho, the road was easier to read but Blood meridan was incredible hard - I thought at least.

Just bought the first two seasons. Watching it now.

I'm in China so there's no broadcast. I just buy the fake shit.

Still a kick ass show!

The season 2 finale had over 9 million viewers.  This show could go on for years.

If it ends - more like when it ends.
Will it be worth living on - I don't know... maybe it revives our archaic senses and depression/anxiety will be a thing of the past.
Next year I'll buy my own gun, mom allowed it, and I'm pretty poised to improve my accuracy.

On a more positive note...
if there's martial law and should I catch you fondling a white Iphony it's all guns blazing.

It's the colloquial you don't understand. He writes with a sensibility you wouldnt get unless you were American or at least know Texans personally.

Why would you want to survive the apocalypse?

Its an Ego thing. It would be pretty cool to be one of a handful of people to survive such a thing...

be it civil war with the negroes and Mexicans , or a zombie apocalypse ??

The question is if the shit really did hit the fan, what would you do, and how would you survive ?

I would take my family to my brother's house. he's a survivalist, and he's got a fucking armory and dry goods that can feed us for a long time, and his house backs up to a lake, so we don't have to defend two fronts.


than the mayans would be right.
