You'll never catch me Zombies!
These days, everybody is a afraid of something. Well with the media hype fanning the flames of our worst fears on a daily basis, who can blame us? While I think most things that we are fearing are completely unfounded ( West Nile Virus, Shark Attacks, Razor blades, E-coli), there is one fear in the hearts of men that is more than justified....its becoming a way of life. That's right folks...I'm talking about Zombies.
Now if you ever have the opportunity, nay the privilege, to drive to my house in the wee hours of the night, you will know of what I speak. Upon leaving work at 3 am, I must travel down a 26 mile stretch of dirt and gravel, with no street lights, no homes near by, no other drivers, nothing but me and the thirst for brains looming in the air. At first, I thought it was my over active imagination playing games with me, after all, I often see dinosaurs waving to me on this road too.
One night im cruising in my 94' down what I like to call "Zombie Highway" at a mind bending speed of 60 mph when I come up over one of the many hills. At first I thought I was staring down a Tyrannosauruses Rex, but it wasn't wearing a hat like normal and was too small. As I'm speeding closer, I see a human form appear, attempting to flag me down, but I know better. So the zombie decides that the only way to MAKE me stop is to step directly in the path of my car. Even if I wanted to stop, It would have taken me a mile due the gravel/sand/banana peel mixture that they use on that road. So at the last minute the zombie and I lock eyes and he knows that I will not go easy into that dark night, so he moves and lets me fly by, there by letting me pummel him with gravel being brought up by my tires. I roll down my window and scream " NOT TONIGHT ZOMBIE!!!! NICE TRY THOUGH!!!! SUCKER!"
Down the road I see a broken down car with its hazards on. Boy...that zombie is going to have a loooonnggg walk. *snicker*
