I once had a dream about being in a house with zombies, and following in the style of Bugs Bunny, I was serving them dinner. Shaggy was among the seated at the dining table looking at me expectantly (but Scooby was conspicuously missing). So, I don't know if that falls under the "I have (or would it be I had) a lot of expendable friends and neighbors...but I find it eerily coincidental that fell under the number 'ate.' But I do wonder if I was only serving them some Scooby snacks.

Yeah, about that... I'm afraid Shaggy, Fred and Daphne didn't make it. Look at the heart on the front of the mystery machine.

Funny thing -- the other zombie apocalypse thread I wrote years ago almost immediately broke out into an intense intellectual debate on what kind of zombies we would be fighting (fast vs. slow; smart vs. dumb, etc.) and what all their abilities would or wouldn't be.
But with @Sculpt's keen (but unverified) observation, I'm thinking we're going to need a row boat.
I realize a boat with a motor (better yet, a yacht) would be much nicer, but I'm thinking we're at the point where gasoline could be inaccessible.
And now I'm thinking 3/4 of the boat is going to be filled with alcohol -- and Twinkies.
I'm thinking...
We're going to need a bigger boat.
Next thread idea: "Which Members On CC Have The Best Rowing Arms?!"
(I also realize I keep mentioning things like bunkers and yachts -- what can I say. I'm happy with my current peasant life, but is it so wrong to aspire to survive a zombie apocalypse in style?!)

But what if we're dealing with the smart variety of zombies who all pile onto the solar panels, blocking our only source of energy?!

Dang.
Now I want to see an episode of Myth Busters try this out to see how feasible it actually is.
"Can The World's Largest Taser (Attached to a Sheet of Solar Panels) Repel a Horde of Zombies Effectively Enough to Save Humanity??"
(Kind of sounds like one of those cliffhanger lines of narration from an old episode of Rocky And Bullwinkle.)

Well there goes MY plan.
I was counting on you to have a private bunker. And so was Winston.
Unless, of course, by "hunkering down at home," you also happen to mean "hunkering down in my private bunker"...

Where I live, before an election, the powers that be send out a very helpful booklet with information about the local candidates. This year, there was a candidate on our election ballot who calls himself, I kid you not, Goodspaceguy (written exactly that way.)
He didn't even give a proper legal name, just Goodspaceguy (unless this actually IS his current legal name, who knows.) He didn't bother separating the words. And he said something about how we should all picture the earth as a "beautiful spaceship" traveling in space around the sun.
He identifies as a Republican. And apparently, he's been a candidate 25 times. He is running for the United States Senate.
Now I am all for the dream that the common person can pull themselves up by their bootstraps and become a representative of others going through the same hardships they've seen and want to do something about it.
But one of this persona's major platform concerns was to "boost up, and improve the International Space Station" -- and not that this is entirely bad, but I'd rather they do something about the fact that I can't make a 30-minute walk down the street to see my family because of the homeless, drug, and fentanyl problem that has taken over every street.
I give anyone who runs for office a lot of credit, as I'm sure it takes some pretty big barrels of gumption to do so.
But the fact that they seem to be willing to give a platform to someone who did who knows and how much of whatever it was to settle on the name Goodspaceguy (again, all one word,) makes me seriously want to give up any hope of putting much stake (or steak) into American politics.
