Zombies...

My wife's gotten into the Zombie craze...I guess watching The Walking Dead will do that to you. LOL

Anyway, she replaced the stick figure family on the rear window of the Tahoe with the Zombie version, and stated that she wished she had something for the rear side windows. I found a local guy that made these for me in matte black to go on those windows, which are black tinted. The cost was nothing, since he's picked up over a dozen orders for more from another site I belong to, and I helped make his design a bit different from others I've seen.

While I don't usually get into putting decals on windows, the kids get a kick out of it...and they are easily removed with a razor at a later date. Besides...it's her vehicle, let her be happy. A happy wife equals a happy life.

A scene I shot for a not yet released zombie/demon flick.

We caught one of the Talking Dead episodes after the Walking Dead was on. They said that people were begging to be one of the zombies that ate the horse in the second or third episode...the intestines were actually sausages stuffed with bbq pork. They said it was shot around lunch time.

Is there a make-up guy named Mike working on that picture?

Raj: Okay, here's another one: if a zombie bites a vampire, and the vampire bites a human, does the human become a vampire or a zombie?

A lesser known Mike... Mosher. Zombie flicks and the like are right up his alley.
Childhood friend.

Bet if I asked him if he knew Myke Michaels....

Just looked and it seems like Myke and Mike both worked on the Soloist, so they likely do know each other, at least in passing.

The Walking Dead on Steam

I got this for my gf (who is also into the "craze") and she's almost too scared to play it. Its more like a guided cinematic where you choose what to say and what decisions to make. Pretty fun IMO, goes on sale for $10 every so often.

World War Z is a read worth your time. Read it as a pandemic book if you can't lower yourself to read a zombie book.
