Here’s the list:
- Rule 1: Cardio
- Rule 2: Doubletap
- Rule 3: Beware of Bathrooms
- Rule 4: Seatbelts

- Rule 6: Cast Iron Skillet Read the rest of this entry »
How To Survive a Zombie Attack: A Short
While not all the information in this video is 100% accurate, I do believe it gives a general (and jocular) view on how to protect yourself from a Zombie.
That said, I will be posting better information on the tactics and training that you need to survive a true Zombie onslaught. Please come back soon for more information on ensuring that you and your loved ones live through the next uprising of the undead.
