Common Sense about it all

With so many new diseases and so many new vaccines, it becomes scarier and scarier to live in the world today. I have seen it more than once where someone gets sick and goes to the doctor. The doctor gives them a prescription for an antibiotic, maybe a shot and an IV for prevention of dehydration and sends them on their way. Well, the person goes and get the prescription filled, gets some chicken soup, cough medicine and maybe some lozenges or something like that, goes home and lies down to rest and try and feel better so that they can either go back to work or school. Now even though the directions on the prescription of antibiotics clearly states on the label “Finish all of this medication. If you miss a dose take it as soon as possible. Do not drink alcohol while taking this medication”, guess what… they go home and fix a hot toddy to make their throat feel better. Mistake number one. Yeah they take the antibiotics. First day, second day, third day and maybe the forth. Then they feel better, then they stop taking the medicine because they feel as if the virus is gone. Mistake number two.
First off, drinking alcohol while taking antibiotics is plain freakin’ stupid. The doctor will tell you that drinking alcohol while taking antibiotics (we will call them AB’s for ease of typing) will make you sick to your stomach. No, that is not the case. Do your research! AB’s see the alcohol as an intruder and since it is stronger in your body than the actual virus, it will fight the alcohol instead leaving the virus or infection alone so that it is free to do its dirty work. Secondly, the AB was prescribed because there was a recommended dosage for a set amount of days that research has shown it takes to fully work and kill whatever it is that it was prescribed for. So, if you do not take all of it, the infection or virus mutates and the AB will not be as effective, if at all, as it was. Now you have a new breed of infection.

Zombie Driver to hit stores in November!

Alright guys! Here it is! This is a cool game that, as the name suggests, has zombies and driving!



"Fight your way through the streets of a zombie infested city to save the survivors of a disastrous chemical accident that changed most of the city's population into mindless brain hungry monsters. Time is your enemy and your car is your weapon as you race through the streets smashing everything on your way including fences, phone booths, street lamps and hordes of zombies. When the gruesomely mutated zombies become too much to handle, buy a new car or get more guns and upgrades installed. You can earn more money for finishing side quests, making kill combos and searching for hidden prizes. Game play is unrestricted and the player can freely roam through the dark streets, alleys and backyards searching for the best shortcuts or hidden power ups." source - ZombieDriver.com

Looks like a fun game and you can download a demo right from the main site. I look forward to having a beer or two and laying into this one!

Zombieland is a GREAT movie!

If anyone gets the chance to see Zombieland, by all means GO! It is absolutely hillarious! Even if you aren't a fan of zombie flicks. This one is more of a comedy than a true zombie movie although it stays true to the lore of zombies. Lots of blood, lots of carnage, and good ol Woody. Woody's character is like Mickey Knox mixed with old Woody from Cheers. Get yourself some popcorn, a soda, a few knapkins for when you piss yourself from laughing, and last but not least...
GET YOURSELF A TWINKIE!
