Then I'll wait until I go home, where I also have Firefox. Doing this from work would not be the way to go.
knowing me, I'd probably stumble into one of them by mistake.
Or if I'm lucky, the ducks at the condo complex pond would go after them. :lol:

What funny-looking zombies! I was on for about 1:30 minutes and gave up. There were a LOT of them.
Maybe they were coming out to work on the condo complex plumbing. They're good at unclogging DDDDRRRRAAAAIIIINNNNNSSS!!!!! :mrgreen:

Post Re: So, How Would YOU Do If Zombies Hit Your Street?
As I say time and time again (probably until people start asking if I wear a turban to work instead of a cowboy hat), I live out in the desert; you'd think there'd be no zombies out here.

Oh, Hell no. Hordes of the bastards.

I did notice that 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue is not an available address to use.


EDIT: I do believe I've found a way to cheat at this.

Okay, so I started from my home address and headed for North Moss Avenue, which is almost at the bleeding edge of town. (Almost. You'd have to head out to Knox Avenue for that.) Dodged a few zombies here and there, but once I got out to Moss Ave, I noticed no zombies. It's like they instinctively know that nobody lives out there. Soon as I got to Moss, I turned South and high-tailed it toward Interstate 20.

My plan: keep going past the Interstate (when Moss Avenue becomes Meteor Crater Road) and head for the Odessa Meteor Crater (found here on Google Maps). I knew I was essentially setting myself up at what would surely be Odessa's version of the Alamo, should an actual zombie outbreak ever occur here... but after seeing the lack of zombies along Moss Avenue (only one I saw since leaving 26th Street via the tangled route I took was one ambling along 3rd Street), confidence in my plan suddenly skyrocketed. I would arrive at the Meteor Crater Museum - which has only one road in and out (the aforementioned Meteor Crater Road) - and sit there, waiting for the fiends to come and get me.

Yeah, that was 23 minutes ago. It took me ten minutes to get there (after I got all twisted around at Sitting Bull, eating up about two minutes easy with no zombies in sight), but I'm still there, just waiting. The numbers keep ticking by and I'm still alive (and feeling cocky enough to look up a song on YouTube while I wait). I've got the overhead map zoomed out as far as I can get it, and there's not an undead soul in sight. The timer now reads 25:18. I'd say my little "Alamo" spot is rather well-chosen, wouldn't you agree?

So, if a zombie apocalypse does hit town, I know what I'm doing: grabbing all the non-perishable food and water I can and heading for the Meteor Crater, then I'm bribing the Park Ranger with food and water if he'll let me stay there. (I'm sure whatever I bring will be more nutritious and life-preserving than whatever candy's left in the snack machine out there. Nobody goes out there, anyway, so I doubt the candy in that thing is still good.) I'll be armed and s/he'll be armed, so I think we'd be okay... until the supplies start running low and we have to draw straws to see who'd take the Park Ranger truck back into town to raid one of the Walmarts...

It has been 30:12 and not a zombie in sight. "This was a triumph... I'm making a note here: 'huge success'..."


PROOF!

Last Count:73:40 before I finally got bored and refreshed the browser page.

I guess you are just so Goth that even the zombies stay away from you!

Wait... Technically, wouldn't you be hiding in a zombie spawning ground?

My address was also not found. It dumped me in the city center instead.

Sometimes there are downsides to living in a city of 1.6 million.

Speaking of zombies, where had you been hiding? I hadn't seen you around here lately.

I pretty much forgot about the place until Wolfy sent me a PM since work has taken up all the time that sleep and driving internet tanks didn't.
