What do you see? Like most of us, you see nothing more than your mere reflection That isn’t all that scary, right?
Okay maybe not, if you haven’t first put your make up on first! That’s the way I feel about myself anyhow.
What is a zombie? My interpretation of it is, it’s a fictional, living-dead creature spawn out of some one’s over-worked imagination. However, various sites on the net describe zombies as creatures which look and behave like living humans but are void of conscious.
How do you spot zombies? In old movies, zombies are ghastly pale dead-like creatures. If they really looked like this then anyone could easily figure out who was a zombie and who wasn’t.
Did you know there are different kinds of zombies? Who knew, right? Okay, if you’re zombie fan then you may already know this information, but those like myself who are clueless on the ins and outs of zombie-theology. Here are three varieties of zombies:
HOLLYWOOD zombies are dead creatures, but ‘reanimated’. These zombies are evil and eat human flesh. Gross, right? Michael Jackson’s popular Thriller music video displays some perfect examples of this type.
HAITIAN zombies are people who once were normal, but went through the zombification process by a ‘bokor’ – voodoo witch through some sort of spell stripping the person of their free-will. An example of these kinds of zombies can be found in the James Bond flick, Live and Let Die.
PHILOSOPHICAL zombies characterized as lacking a conscious experience and nearly identical physically to normal humans. Most politicians fall into this category if you ask me because anyone in their right state of mind would not do the things our duly elected officials do.
Unfortunately, the philosophical politician zombies will always be with us, unless we do something about it in 2012 and chances are pretty good, we’ll never run into any of the Hollywood or Haitian zombies unless you happen to find some calling at your door this Halloween.

Don’t forget to link up turn in your URL post “Z assignments” with Miss Jenny. =D
Smartphones are mega super cool. In May, I got my first one an iPhone 4. Who knew I would instantaneously flip out over such an iDevice. Yeah, I thought I’d like it, but I more than like it. I LOVE IT!!! Not as much as my husband, of course. Gee, it was he who gave me the iPhone fever – I’ve gotta have one, I’ve gotta have one madness.
For weeks, we’ve anticipated the newest software upgrade. It sounded so cool! The wait ended Yesterday as Apple launched iOS5 for all privilege Apple users. This upgrade doesn’t only work for the iPhone 4, but iPods and iPads.
- For the Apple iDevice(s) users: Have or will you upgrade to the iOS5? If so, how long did the download process take? We began the download process around 8:30 pm last night and sometime during the night it finished. My husband woke up around 3:30ish and told it finished. He finished setting it up for me because I was too sluggish to make sense of anything.
- With all the hype of Apple’s iDevices popularity, are you become more interested in purchasing one for yourself? If so, which iProduct would you like to own? Now that I own an iPhone, I have that fever again. This time, I so-so-so want an iPad! I told my husband he has only himself to blame. He simply laughed at me. Not in a laughing way, which says, “Yeah, right like that’s going to happen.” But in a way which says, “I knew you would love this sort of thing after all.” Let’s face it, he knows it’s true and now he’ll need to get my heart’s desire, right? Maybe, he can put my order in with Santa now before the Best Buy North Pole runs out of stock.

I’m kinda/sorta afraid of zombies.
Okay.
I’ll just say it.
I am.
And I’ve been kinda/sorta afraid of getting an iPhone but now I’m feeling like I can do it.
Our oldest Grandlittle wants me to get one so we can ‘face time’ each other.
I’m all for anything that would help me keep in touch with them as much as possible.
Thanks for another great link Cathy!
Hope to Z you soon.
A+
Hello.
This was certainly an informative post.
Thanks for sharing.
1 I don’t have any of those devises as yet.
2. Sometimes I feel I want an Iphone or one of those, but it’s not much of a desire. Only when I go out like to football games and it seems I’m surrounded by them.
So for now I’m good, Plus I know we just don’t have the budget and I don’t know the upkeep costs.
Interesting take on zombies.. regarding the APPle questions..no I’m still not keen on getting any apple devices I’m happy with getting androids if we do get any.
…and thank you for handing in your assignment…very cool…Zombies don’t scare me at all!
great zombie post
No zombies in my family…..at least, I don’t think so…..
Another clue — zombies always walk stiff-legged and with their arms straight out in front! Dead giveaway LOL!
I didn’t know much about zombies! Thank you for sharing what you know.
I love my iPad.
Political zombies. Love it.
We’ve got a few too many of those around…
