Don't know how long I'll have this connection, so I'll type fast. Please excuse typos as inherent part of
zombie apocalypse. Be aware karate and other barehanded styles are not much use against zombies. I did manage to kick the head off a zombie dog (I think it used to be my neighbor's chihuahua) but since even a scratch is deadly, it's just too dangerous. The chihuahua almost got me, but luckily I noticed the dead gray tone of its nose in time. Unlike humans, they cannot helpfully stagger about with arms extended, moaning "braaaaaaaains."
Um. Well, I am pretty sure it was infected. I hope it was infected.
Anyway, knives are also no good. I have resorted to using a broomstick as a bo. From watching horrible demise of neighbor (the one with the chihuahua) I have determined that small-caliber handguns are also useless. The head must be either totally destroyed, or else fully removed from shoulders.
Obviously I need a shotgun, but cannot go out to get one. All doors barricaded. Luckily I stocked up on cat food the other day.
