In the spirit of this undead holiday, I've written a column for the Statesman entitled "Students Guide To Surviving A Zombie Apocalypse." Here's a little taste:"Weapons (duh) – The only way to kill a zombie is to decapitate the head or destroy the brain. Otherwise, they’ll just keep on coming. Which brings me to my next point: which weapons are most effective?
I don’t anticipate too many students carrying around machetes, so let’s look at two more common items. Let’s start with the textbooks: They’re heavy, over-priced, and an effective killing machine."When I first pitched the idea of writing a zombie survival guide to the Statesman, I got a lot of confusing looks from people. But over time, my crazy idea was slowly accepted. So, a big thank you to my editor for having faith in me.
Now enjoy the column and have a Happy Halloween!
