... so, where's your gray ribbon?

I heard about it the other day while driving into work. The guys on the radio were talking about Dawn of the Dead, but thought it was Resident Evil. I wanted to call them and scream "No, you big dummies!", but restrained myself (they were referring to the scene where the survivors are on the roof of the shopping mall writing messages to the guy in the gun shop telling him which zombie to shoot next).

Gah! They shouldn't talk about things they don't understand!

What are we supposed to do for this month, btw, apart from wear grey ribbons? I won't barricade myself away or saw off my staircase as I'm not keen on getting sectioned, but I do want to join in!

Hmm. I didn't even know that. Kind of explains my recent strange compulsion to write 3 Zombie short stories in quick succession.

Cool!

I had no idea, but I'm totally reading a zombie novel right now--Feed by Mira Grant. Huzzah!

Everyday is Zombie Awareness for me. Love the genre, love the subject matter.

I'm with NYR94 -- (un)living the dream, baby!

Asheville North Carolina is having its annual zombie walk/crawl. Does this happen anywhere else?

[Carolanne Patton]

Yep, happening in Columbus, Ohio this coming weekend.
