As you know, we were a part of the Nuit Blanche renegade parade, a sort of traveling rave. It was us, a big sound/DJ truck, fire dancers, a ton of amazing live drummers, aerial artists doing trapeze and silks from trees, stilt walkers, and at least a thousand people (probably more) dancing and marching in the streets… It was pretty crazy. I’m impressed with myself that I managed to not bump into anyone given how free-form it was and how many people were stumbling into the truck as it drove. Nefarious and Cassie and Caitlin provided armed support in the anti-zombie-mobile. It was fun how many people came up with comments a la “hey, I just saw this truck on the Internet!”
The guns are airsoft type guns, but they look very real, especially the shotgun, and quite a few people thought we were not just playing undead cleanup militia. Sorry I don’t have better pictures. On the off chance that anyone sees any elsewhere, drop me a line.
Tomorrow morning I have to get up very early to drive a friend to the train station, and then we’re having a big early Thanksgiving dinner — today we did a big house cleaning session, oh the misery — and then just a few days until we’re exploring Costa Rica and hanging out with sloths.

Hi Shannon, I’m one of your reader and while reading this, I immediately thought you could find it interresting ;)
So here it is a journal article related to a zombie attack report, which identifies three phases of zombie outbreak and which has been on the University of Florida website for a while…

Eventhough the report has been removed, you can find it following the links in the article.
Cheers, Daf*
