World of Warcraft: "Surviving One's Self"
Posted: Wednesday March 9th, 2005

A discussion was started in the Special Forums a fews days back by Slacker45 about how best to deal with a zombie attack. Slacker mentioned a book by Max Brooks called "The Zombie Survival Guide: Complete protection from the Living Dead".
Well, my girlfriend brought a copy of the book home for me this afternoon, and I've loved it thus far. (Thanks for mentioning it Slacker)
The book is set in an alternate earthen reality where the living dead make the rare appearance to threaten human existance. And, is written very much like the "worst case scenario" manuals. It takes a realistic, logical look at the appropriate course of action to survive an uprising.
Being the kind of person I am, the thought of a WoW race using the manual to prepare to deal with the Undead just struck me as funny. Making the race in question the Undead just made it that much better (to me).
Yeah... I'm easy to amuse.
Note: The subject is a joke inspired by the book. Inner City Schools are considered, by Mr. Brooks, to be one of the best places to hole up.
