She didn't get it, but I bet there's a bump in the number of hits to the website in the next few days, and a few people will be better off because they heard about ZS through her stupid blog...

She seems like an angry woman. But hey, it's not anyone's fault but her own if she gets eaten by a mob of angry zombies.

Just what would that disaster be? Well, the group is called the Zombie Squad (or ZS), and it claims the worst of the worst is... zombies.
That's the point. If you're prepared for zombies, you can handle anything. :P
Are you prepared? Good. Then help someone else do the same.

Eh. If snide passes for clever, her column probably does well in Minneapolis.

But yes, thanks for the link, Jane!

Gotta love people like these, they give people something to get pissed at.

Well I do agree that most people's zombie preps are not good for every other type of disaster. I blame Max Brooks for the "get to a high spot and destroy the stairs" plannnig.

This will not generate nearly the hits SA did.

Nope. We've only had like 6 hits from it and those were probably from people in here. It's obviously not a very popular blog. She must just like reading her own snide crap online. :)

We received thousands of hits from SomethingAwful.

Yeah Something Awful was great advertising. I wonder how many hits she normally gets. Perhaps she was hoping we would send traffic back her way. :wink:

Hey! California does NOT have more zombies! We may not have a chapter, but we still patrol regularly. I am outraged that she maligned the Left Coast's zombie-killin' abilities!

That political stab makes me realize why she has such low blog hits. She's another political talking head and not a journalist. That's what bad journalist do when they can't make hack it. All you have to do as a political talking head is be insulting.

Who said that? That's a lie...

My eyes immediately glazed over as soon as she made the obligitory "nutty California" and "al-Queda and N. Korea are our biggest threats" comments. Wow, she's really bringing some insight to the table with her hard hitting journalism. :roll:

You never realized that when I said you were "witty," my comment was dripping with sarcasm?

Like Steve from Dawn of the Dead (2004). My whole family clapped when he was attacked by that zed.
