Chuck Wendig with a pet peeve, some very good advice, and a point well made...
A repost from the way back machine that seemed apt for the day.
Apparently not everybody gets the whole z-o-m-b-i-e thing
on a nautical themed blog and some cold hearted people I know think it
is simply a manifestation of the gene pool cleansing itself.
Maybe, maybe not.
Then again, it is all just a bit of silliness but as my mother used to
say "It's all silliness and fun until someone puts their eye out"!
I grew up on a mixture of history books, fairy tales, Jack London and
Norse sagas, which is no bad thing to introduce your children to as they
teach a lot of important and dark lessons we should all know, with a
big emphasis on the dark...
Then again, we all are talking about silly things and in our perfect
world no one does harm, greed is not the compass, and insurance
companies don't take your premiums for years and years and then decide
not to pay out when you have that odd little case of cancer because way
back when in high school you had a couple of zits and did not tell them
about it. Nah, we live in a real warm and fuzzy world!
But there are things that go bump in the night and whether they be giant
Kraken, vampires, corporate government takeovers, genocide or
flesh-eating zombies there is evil about and it is no bad thing to be
prepared... but I digress and back to the silliness!
So, today is just running an errand, wiring up a bilge pump, and waiting to see if we're in for a proto-fascist/zombie apocalypse or not.
Fun stuff right?
