Ask and Ye Shall Recieve

A quick search through realtor.com turns up this little gem.

Church for sale
Clcik for the ad

A desanctified church in the thriving metropolis of Middleburg, PA for sale as a “single family home.” It could be all mine for the princely sum of $45,000.00.

I wonder if it comes with a graveyard… I’ve always wanted to learn necromancy and raise an army of undead zombies to do my evil bidding….

Update: 03-13-2007:

We called the realtor and are having a look at the church Saturday! mwawahahahah!

Bicycling to Escape the Undead Legions

Standard

In his book “The Zombie Survival Guide: Complete Protection from the Living Dead,” Max Brooks has dedicated a section to the pros and cons of several different types of vehicles that can be used to evade zombies. I was quite happy to see that the bicycle ranked as the hands-down favorite land-based vehicle (only the hot-air balloon was a better choice overall.)

Book Cover

The relevant verbiage:

The Bicycle
In a class by itself, this vehicle offers the best of both worlds [the silence of the horse, and the mobility of the dirt bike]. The common bicycle is fast, quiet, muscle-powered, and easy to maintain. Add to this the additional advantage that it is the only vehicle you can pick up and carry if the terrain gets too rough. People using bicycles to escape from [zombie] infested areas have almost always fared better than those on foot.

I got this book in the buy-one-get-one-free rack at the bookstore, and it is actually surprisingly good, despite the silly subject matter.
