A co-worker of mine was a zombie for it last year.
I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

Can I bring weapons to protect myself against the undead?
No. Your only weapons will be your abilities to run away and make quick decisions. Train well.

What kind of zombie-avoiding race is this?  And yet in their gear section they offer The Zombie Apocolypse.

Oh, and Ben - should you lose and be transformed, I would not expect Mrs. Smith to be in the least sympathetic.  She's already co-opted at least one of your guns.  Do you think she will hesitate to improve her holdings?

stay safe.
If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

Hey you kids!! Get off my lawn!!!

They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder.  Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.

Yep, she'll grab all the good stuff before any of us can there to divvy it up.
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

I got here first.

But that's beside the point.

Since he isn't allowed to bring weapons, I'll be spotting for him from pre-planned spots along the route. That's just the kind of girlfriend I am.

FTFY.....

As one of the unfortunates on this forum who doesn't own a single firearm ( :'( ), I think I should be allowed to have first dibs from Ben's firearms. =D :angel:

Come and get them.

I have always heard that the correct/proper/official translation was "Come and take them."

Just being nitpicky.

You guys are talking like I'm already dead...

Skid, I wasn't quoting Leonidas. I was trying to provoke Viking. And Ben, not because I was planning to divvy up your stuff, but because I haven't been able to shoot anything in a month. Give me something to shoot at and I won't pick fights with the boys.

Geesh.
