Tuesday, May 8th, 2007Prepare Yourselves for the Inevitable Zombie Revolution
Friday, April 6th, 2007I’m generally not a person who concerns himself with impending disasters. I didn’t load up on food and water when Y2K rolled around. I didn’t duct tape my doors and windows after 9/11. Sometimes I don’t even wear underwear after a trip to Taco Bell.
However, I feel very strongly that we all need to prepare ourselves for the possibility of a zombie invasion. For many years, zombies have been little more than a nuisance, slow and stinky. In recent years zombies have become faster and stronger, though. Their speed allows them to better capture us and satiate themselves with our precious brains.
Since zombies don’t seem to be as media worthy as Asian Bird Flu or Hillary Clinton we are dangerously underinformed as to how to deal with a zombie outbreak in out country. Luckily for us, some helpful folks have put together a new website: http://www.zombieinitiative.org that tells how to prepare for and deal with a zombie invasion. Keep in mind, this site is user driven ala Wikipedia, so there might be some misinformation littered throughout this overall informative and necessary site.

Great Pictures of the Guatemalan Sinkhole
Tuesday, February 27th, 2007GUATEMALA CITY, Guatemala - A 330-foot-deep sinkhole killed at least two teenagers as it swallowed about a dozen homes early Friday and forced the evacuation of nearly 1,000 people in a crowded Guatemala City neighborhood. Officials blamed the sinkhole on recent rains and an underground sewage flow from a ruptured main.
The pit emitted foul odors, loud noises and tremors, shaking the surrounding ground. A rush of water could be heard from its depths, and authorities feared it could widen or others could open up.
Rescue operations were on hold until a firefighter, suspended from a cable, could take video and photos above the hole and officials could use the documentation to decide how to proceed.
The dead were identified as Irma and David Soyos, emergency spokesman Juan Carlos Bolanos said. Their bodies were found near the sinkhole, floating in a river of sewage.
Their father, Domingo, was still missing, according to disaster coordinator Hugo Hernandez.
