breeding zombie-loving children

Pin It

What better way could there be to prepare your little ones for the zombie apocalypse than to get them a teddy bear. Tell me that this doesn't look like the perfect gift for your little tyke. Every little kid dreams of a gory zombified teddy bear.... right?? 

Okay, even I'm not weird enough to get my kids something like this. 

Book Review: Carrie by Stephen King

Pin It
Carrie by Stephen King
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Carrie is everything I like in horror novels - short in length, not too horror-y, and focuses on the story more than the scare factor. Carrie is a character-driven novel rather than just simply indulging in the bumps and screams. It is also very timely despite the fact that it was written in 1974 - making a literary commentary about bullying, an area of much social focus today.

I found Carrie to be a very enjoyable read, and while it is unlikely to be found on anyone's must-read list, it is a fantastic taste of Stephen King's brilliant mind. I've only read one book I didn't like by King (Lisey's Story) and Carrie fits in brilliantly with his library of literary work. It is not the masterpiece that The Stand is, but it is relevant in it's own right and definitely worth the read.

I think it took me all of 3 days to read, with only a couple hours invested each day, so no one really has a good excuse not to give it a try. You won't regret it.

When the zombie apocalypse is upon us, it will pay to be prepared. I'm pretty sure the M48 Apocalypse Tactical Tomahawk could come in mighty handy. If nothing else, I'll look like a badass with this baby in my paws. 

Here are the deets:

• Lightweight to be carried all day without added muscle fatigue 
• Wide, upswept axe blade for mammoth chopping, slashing and zombie cutting potential
• Secondary edge on the back side of the head, specially sharpened on both edges for a cutting and hooking attack. 
• Blade is securely attached to the paracord-wrapped, 30% nylon reinforced handle with three separate bolts. 
• Includes a durable nylon belt sheath with belt loop and snap closure buttons. 
• 8" blade, 15" overall

This is the incredibly awesome limited edition bluray for The Walking Dead Season 2. My wife thinks it is too scary for me to own. I told her to stop being a pussy. I need it.
