Scotsfest 2010

This weekend is the Scotsfest 2010 Festival at the Orange County Fairgrounds! We are very excited to go. My girlfriend is even making some homemade kilts for the guys in our group! After some research, the both of us were able to find some decent information on kilt making as well as learning a bit of Scottish history. The Scotsfest seems to be quite large this year and promises to have plenty of activities, events, and goods available. I am particularly looking forward to the Highland Dancers and the bag piping contests. I don’t know much about Scottish traditional dishes except haggis. I doubt they will be offering haggis though because it is not a great cross cultural dish (I won’t go into the specifics of the recipe). Let’s just say that it would be a favorite for any zombies that may show up to the event. If you plan to go, be sure to take advantage of the ticket price savings available online if you pre-order!

Zombie Invasion Scenarios

In this edition I want to discuss the importance of identifying the type of zombie attack you may be experiencing. There are two types of zombie invasions. The less dangerous type is the “exposure to a government chemical spill” scenario. These zombies tend to be slower and less bitey. This type of invasion is typically cleaned up by the government within a few weeks and is followed by a cover up in the media. The chemical spill scenario is short lived so I suggest locking yourself in and waiting it out unless you are near the spill then I suggest waiting it out in the shower. Disclaimer: The “wait it out” method does not work if the government nukes your town.

The second and more dangerous type is the infection-based zombie invasion which can be transmitted to others. This infestation increases at an alarming rate. The transmitted infection scenario is the most dangerous because you are at risk of being infected and transformed. These zombies are generally meaner and much quicker on their feet or foot, as the case may be. In this case I recommend getting out of town and finding a nice isolated farm. Farm houses tend to have fully stocked kitchens and pantries which will help sustain your group. Tip: If anyone in your party has been bitten, have them walk in front of the group as you travel to the farm.

Protect Your Brain

The zombie is driven by it’s hunger for brains. Generally they moan the word “braaaaains” as they wander around or are chasing you. Therefore, PROTECT YOUR BRAIN! One trick is to paint a softball to look like a brain. Then if you are close to your car and a zombie attacks, just grab the “brainball” and toss it to said zombie. This could give you precious seconds to start your car and make a fast get-a-way! Stay safe, Bronze Lifers!
