A little mummy dust in an open wound or scratch could have you driving the Devil's Cadillac in the fast lane all the way to Zombie-town.
Osum.
Tom Flanigan could also be a derivation of Tommy Flannegan
That was my thought.
Heh...
I wonder - in the old days, a zombie breakout would have been devastating, since man-portable projectile weapons capable of scrambling diseased grey matter weren't all that common, or fast... and stuff like swords, etc., would have been nightmares for hazmat biocontainment...
Alternately, even bronze or wicker armor would provide quite a bit of resistance to the zombies scratching or biting, giving the guy with the sword/axe/spear time to make the swing.
I'm not sure that, if you avoided licking your sword, a little brain goo on the blade would have been that big of a deal.
Thanks Balog, I thought I would sign up after I saw my existence being debated in the messages above.
Your posting means nothing, I still doubt your reality.
Welcome to the board... on the off chance you do exist and are who you say you are.
