I am not as hard hearted as some of my family who are more than ready to shoot me in the head should they even think I may be a zombie. They look far too eager as they say this. I would corral them in a room and wait for a cure but if I am bitten, I'll be quickly missing a head.

After all, everybody knows that the ones who laugh about it are the first to get eaten. The downside, of course, is that it's harder to mount an effective assault if nobody is prepared.Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18047049720897209506noreply@blogger.com
