Zombie Squad

Unless you are immunocompromised or a fetus, all T. gondii will do is give you flu symptoms. Stop trying to spread panic.

Mujaddara!

I've worn glasses since I was a teenager. Polycarbonate lenses and a retention strap have always been good enough for me. I use Cocoons over-Rx sunglasses, which are also nearly indestructible.

Hi, Jam!

This is a really small thing, but I'll post it anyway. In my semi-conscious, pre-coffee state this morning, I managed to get maple syrup not only all over the barrel and clip, but inside the click mechanism of my Zebra F-701 pen. After coffee and contemplation, I used alcohol wipes to clean up the o...

Kinda like that Russian SCA guy who speared a drone out of the sky?

Dammit. I can hardly ever get the YouTube link to work properly.

If I had to get up close and personal with a zombie, I'd want an Estwing rock hammer.

I imagine that making a pair of those out of steel-belted radials would be tough going.

About that time, said staffer comes head first out the window swinging a scimitar of the crappy chrome variety of blade you find for $5 at the low-rent government surplus stores. The driver of the car was as baffled by this action as I was and he decided to nope the fuck out of there. A friend of m...

Take a look at the Thrunite TH20. I replaced my Black Diamond Storm with one of these. It will run on either a 14500 Li-ion or a single AA.

I had an AMC Eagle. I bought it for $50 in the mid-90s. It needed a new muffler right away. About a year later I had to replace the heater core and the radiator. Kept it for another year or two and then one night it spat all its transmission fluid onto the road and never moved under its own power ag...

If you have municipal tap water, you can store it in clean glass or plastic containers for up to six months. Clean 2-liter pop bottles with new lids are pretty good containers.

That was the best season premiere they've had in years. I'm more excited about the show than I've been since Negan was introduced with that dumbass cliffhanger.

I knew the bullets weren't real. That's why I posted them in this thread.

NiteIze makes a universal multi-tool holster with a snap:

Did you see that doc? I think it was Vice. About the guy that stockpiles Tesla parts and rebuilds and fixes them? Tesla has a real hard time sharing info with mechanics. They want only their dealerships to work on their cars. There's an antiquated idea huh?! lol! Tesla doesn't have dealerships. How...

The Five Rules of Taxi Driving, as taught to me by my trainer many years ago, also have some application in the non-cab world: Know where you are. Know where you are going. Now that we have GPS and Google Maps, there is no excuse not to look up where you're going before you set out. (It was paper ma...

His vehicle and most of his police gear are also anachronisms. I try not to let it get in the way of the show. I'm not good at identifying model years just by looking at vehicles, but I know that there were Chevy Blazers that looked pretty much like Hopper's in 1982-1984. What about the rest of his...

It wouldn't even have to be a terribly complicated trap. Dig a big pit. Set up your boom box. Go check every few days and bring a few gallons of diesel to set them on fire, which will eventually kill them and keep them from piling up so much that new ones can climb out.

I love both seasons. Two things bother me. 1. Barb got a raw deal. I will avoid posting spoilers, but I'm happy to discuss it via PM. 2. Chief Hopper's knife is an anachronism. There were no half-serrated folders with thumb studs in the early 1980s. He should have a Buck 110 or maybe a SAK or Barlow.

I've tried a few others, but I keep going back to the Spyderco Persistence that I've carried for the better part of seven years now.

Product: one Crunchy Peanut Butter Clif Bar and one Chocolate Chip Clif Bar. Best By date: August 7, 2016 Consumed date: October 24, 2017 Both bars were a little darker than their usual color, probably from having partially melted and then re-solidified on a camping trip in...the first year I owned ...
