Zombie Apocalypse

Okay, this isn't paranormal and it isn't the least bit romantic, but it is still interesting. Plus, it's about one of my favorite villians. The CDC put up a list of essentials needed in preparation for a zombie apocalypse. If you missed this the first time around a few months ago (and you may have since the the day it was released the CDC had trouble keeping the website page up due to traffic overload) here it is again for your entertainment:

Hello to the world

It's a sunny day here in Vegas - go figure - and I've just created my first blog. To start it off right, I'm going to christen it with a quote from a famous author, Edgar Rice Burroughs. It goes something like this:

'I have been successful probably because I have always realized that I knew nothing about writing and have merely tried to tell an interesting story entertainingly.'

Edgar Rice Burroughs was the one who created Tarzan, by the way. My philosophy exactly Edgar!
