08.11.08 by ScottC @ 8:40 pm One of main tenets of The Zombie Survival Guide by Max Brooks (or as Widge calls it, The Bible) is to be aware and alert to your surroundings. Quoting from the book: For whatever reason, never let your guard down. The undead could be anywhere, their sounds muffled, their signs ignored.
