    Social Media: Preparedness 101: Zombie Apocalypse

    The following was originally posted on CDC Public Health Matters Blog May 16th, 2011 by Ali S. Khan.



    There are all kinds of emergencies out there that we can prepare for. Take a zombie apocalypse for example. That's right, I said z-o-m-b-i-e a-p-o-c-a-l-y-p-s-e. You may laugh now, but when it happens you'll be happy you read this, and hey, maybe you'll even learn a thing or two about how to prepare for a real emergency.

    Zombies and vampires are all the rage here.
    Mock if you want but understanding zombies is the way to understand humans .

    I discovered this last year when I read this must read book if you want to understand international politics .

    Amazon.com: Theories of International Politics and Zombies (9780691147833): Daniel W. Drezner: Books

    Basically it does the same thing as the CDC does (using the example of zombies in applying practical steps to take in emergencies) The author uses the examples of confronting the threat of zombies based on various models of international relations like realists ,neocons ,isolationism ,or those who think that the undead are just misunderstood and should be added to the nations of the UN,to explain the various political theories.

My boyfriend and I wanted to know what "it felt like" to be inside... we didn't want to have sex, we just wanted to see how it felt. I know that was a stupid mistake but we did. All he did was go inside and then come out, we didn't do anything else. We did this on Thursday, and on Saturday there...
