The zombies are coming? Yes, you heard right! I mean, c'mon... these things are bound to happen! And in knowing so, a couple of friends and I have devised our own zombies escape plan. *Keep in mind that this is a watered-down version of it:
First, we pack all our needs, i.e. guns, canned goods, toiletries etc. (not wants), and gather as much family as possible (optional). Then, after we make contact with each other through our pre-set C-V radio channel (undisclosed), we make our way over to a rally point. Upon meeting each other, we then make our way over to a bowling alley about a mile away, where we then seal off the two entrances with a planks of wood (that I've saved and stored under my bed during the last two years) and then move the arcade games and vending machines against that for further barricading. We've chosen that place because of it's also a bar/restaurant and has a freezer with plenty of food stock, roof access, a gas station across the street, and a hardware store next door.
If anyone else has one, I would like to hear it!

Zeds are stupid and slow. No threat. All you have to REALLY worry about is dodging the "missiles" from the necrophiliacs who will be joyously running throughout street.

My entire zombie defense plan consists of the following:
1) Grab a baseball bat 2) Grab a bunch of food from the fridge and move it to the downstairs freezer. 3) Hide in the cellar with said food and baseball bat. 4) ? ? ? 5) PROFITSurvive!

True, but you have to think in terms of long-term survival. That is, unless, you intend to die early on in the Z War. I mean, what it really comes down to is food and a place to hide.

I'm torn between defending the homestead and humping it over to Wal-Mart. My house has a second floor, which allows me to destroy the staircase, but Wal Mart has ammo and food, as well as only one entrance that really needs defending (even garden area is protected by tall, wrought-iron fence-cage).

Yeah, at first I thought Wal-Mart was a a good place to go. Then I thought about the fact that I wasn't going to be the only one with that idea. And we all know that a lot of people equal infection/disease/sickness/disputes, which in the end equals death. Which is why I'm sticking to the low-profile, low-maintenance bowling alley.
*Not to mention the fact that Wal-Mart's gonna be the first place looters will hit.

Yeah, I thought about that. It would be the first to get targeted by looters and other people, but what would they be stealing? TVs, radioes, all I'd need to keep an eye on would be the food and the guns. It is one of the best forts around, and it's next to a Home Depot. Besides, the area around it isn't that heavily populated. I live in a rural-suburban area, you see. Only things I have to look out for is trailer parks.

Well, unless you're the first one there, then don't expect to get much food and guns anyway. I mean, I remember when the year 2000 was right around the corner and a bunch of paranoids filled the isles of Wal-Mart and other stores because they thought the world was going to end. Now that's just something we weren't sure of, but imagine what would happen when confirmed Zombie reports started to appear on every channel! Chaos! Panic! People who wouldn't know what to do, so they go get as much food and guns as possible. Maybe you could go resign in it after the panic, but even then some selfish psycho could already be inhabiting it and defending from both the dead and living.

And that is why stores are a stupid place to go. Head towards the nearest military base or outpost around you. Like I would, the one less than 50 miles from me.

Military bases won't let you in. They'll shoot people on sight until they work out how the zombie virus is spread.

Yes well, uh..... right I know, I kill a military zombie and take his clothes

What if the virus travels through body fluids? Then you're wearing clothes caked in infected blood.
In fact, it's best to avoid the military, just stay out of their way, unless you see a dead soldier, then loot him.

Yeah, when the dead don't stay dead, I'm going to avoid strangers completely; Be it the military or not. My group would consist of family and friends that I know I can trust and rely on, no matter what happens. You can never be too sure about who's infected or not, but it's better safe than sorry.

Not necessarily. You forget that the virus takes a little while to set in.
*By the way, I wasn't talking about dead-heads themselves, I was referring to those who got infected by a bite, scratch, blood-exposure, etc.

Not to mention some people are just out to betray you and take your stuff. Not a whole lot of people, but disasters tend to make them out of even formerly good people.

Plus, those who simply have no knowledge whatsoever of how the virus spreads and works. I could already see those survivors of the first serious outbreak shooting every living thing he/she sees, not even able to tell the difference from living and the dead. Probably due to hysteria. Yes, a lot of icky stuff can happen once the sh!t hits the fan.

Animals got that whole sixth sense thing. They'll run like hell as soon as they sniff anything weird.
If you want to be worried about animals, try the living animals, when humans get weakened after a zombie outbreak all bets are off for the dominant species.

Zombie dogs? I doubt it. Like that other guy said, dogs would know what's up and would A) Try to warn you B) Take off or C) Would just go plain ol' crazy. I don't think zombies would even pay attention to dogs 'cause they smell different and plus, I don't think zeds would even have the agility/quickness to catch a dog.

Rats are the animals I'm worried about. When people hide in their bunkers, the rats find a way in, then they just have to get brave enough to attack larger mammals...........I've been reading James Herbert books.
I should plan for other zombies....how do you stop a voodoo zombie?
