Zombie Lurch
user_granstro writes "Madison, Wisconsin is the next city to face the shambling undead hordes. At 2pm on Saturday, October 22, zombie fans will assemble in full costume to kick off Zombie Lurch 2005. Organizer Maddie Greene, a self-styled zombie expert, says of the event, "I think that any bystander could jump right in and become a zombie with the proper groaning and limping and attitude.""
Only 364 days to go!

I can understand the dupes. I can understand the trolls. But NOT posting a time-sensitive story such as this is ridiculous. This was yesterday, mr. editor.
Show this to your friends and family that don't know what a real hacker is
I live the Washington, DC area. Just head downtown on any given day and you'll see the local Zombie Lurch Chapter doing their finest. There's even a delegation from every state. It's a veritable Church Of the Zombie Lurch. Second only, perhaps, to the nearest Junior High School literature classroom.
Don't disappoint your bird dog. Go to the range.
What i'd be worried about is the paranoid people who will think its real and start wildy firing at heads. BOOM HEADSHOT!!!
Have you metaroderated recently?
In full attire .
My body will be a Tower case , My right hand a mouse , my left a keyboard and on my head a monitor with a picture of windows XP .
I hope I don't scare any old ladies to death
The only things certain in war are Propaganda and Death. You can never be sure which is which though
Unfortunately, the effects of time travel are quite deleterious to one's physical well being. Symptoms include advanced necrosis, body parts falling off, sudden craving for human brains, etc...
Why not go for the triple play and dupe this as well?
Toronto has one going on at 2pm *today*!
I think I'll be staying inside this afternoon...
You can accomplish anything you set your mind to. The impossible just takes a little longer.
It wasn't nearly as exciting as the Post-Homecoming Game Zombie Revelry in the Streets that happened yesterday evening. Zombies lurching down State Street may be kind of cute, but it can't compete with the awesome power of thousands of zombies in red shirts shambling aimlessly around the city, consuming unholy quantities of some unknown urine-colored substance (possibly the sustenance needed to keep them alive since all the brains in town had locked themselves in and shuttered their windows for the weekend?), driving like spastic blind chimpanzees at incredible speed all over town, urinating on the sidewalk, and so on. It turned particularly exciting around 10:00PM - about four hours into the event - when many of the males began fighting outside bars, presumably over alpha status.
You do have to consider the fact that zombies are real. So in a sense they are advocating slavery.
(Not really, I just had to make a point)
