Are there some trees that are really pissing you off Seven?
Or is there a place where you would like to see a nice straight path through thick bush, & you want an easy way to clear it?

I'll just settle for a good old fashion axe!

Remember kids: when the zombie apocalypse comes there's one thing you should bear in mind when choosing your weapon of choice...

Axes don't run out of ammunition!

That's true but given the amount of fatigue you would experience after swinging an axe enough times to drive back a hoard of the undead you might as well be relying on the 18 rounds for your .45 that you will find throughout the whole zombie envasion experience. You also have to keep in mind that if you try to use an axe against these modern day "fast moving" zombies, you might as well just stick the handle up your ass and derive what pleasure you can because that's all the good it will do you.

Surviving a zombie apocalypse is like surviving any other natural disaster, you have to plan ahead. First you have to decide if you are going to ride it out in a single location or if you will travel somewhere. I am personally an advocate of the sitting and waiting in a fortress school of though however, I will admit that I have reservations after Katrina. In either case a vehicle mounted 50 caliber is a must, either as a means of securing of facilitating your travel plans or in case a hasty retreat is in order. The 50 cal. should prevent your vehicle from being swarmed and rendered inoperable. That 50 cal. is going to piss bullets so make sure you are well stocked and remember a stops them just as well as a steady stream.

As far as fortress defenses the 50 cal. is once again going to be your best choice. It will be the best insurance that your other defenses don't get a chance to fail. Next up you will want a mine field followed by moat no less than 20 feet wide and 20 feet deep (obviously a backhoe will be a must) Now there are a lot of those who say they want a flaming trench because of the intimidation factor and overall effectiveness, however, I have always argued this is a short term defense. Pointy sticks worked for thousands of years and they will work here. If you have the time you could you can reroute some natural gas lines for controlled bursts. Beyond the trench you should really have an outer wall made of at least one foot thick concrete. If this proves impractical a chain link fence with razor wire will delay them long enough to run through your evacuation procedures or prepare to stand and fight.

Evacuate or stand and fight is really going to come down how many zombies you are have breaching your perimeter. If you've god a couple dozen soulless adversaries rapping at your door go ahead and grab your shotgun and take care of business. If you have an endless swarm of hundreds of the little bastards that's when you put the pedal to the metal set off your fuck off charges. You'll want a blast radius of 100 feet fast the walls of your fortress. Hopefully the explosion and your 50 cal. will take care of any that could commence with pursuit.

If you do engage in face to face combat, shotgun, shotgun, shotgun. You can easily carry hundreds of shells on your person and and you'll have the benefit of stopping power with a spread.

The logical part of my brain thinks that would defeat the purpose of having the axe in the first place as the axes would then be ammunition and could run out...

But the 5 year old in me that's attracted to shiny things is over ruling it and wants an Axe Gun NOW!

I want you to watch this because this is the Vinnie Jones I was thinking of when I developed D.K. Not the head hoolagan from Eurotrip. Although I do plan top watch Eurotrip at some point in the near future just because it's a brilliant movie

I don;t know what to say to that other than that was one of the mos tinteresting ( and yet also pointless) things I've read in a while.

Kudos. You just made my evening.

Wow, I get busy for a couple of days and suddenly the Lounge is way past where I left off. Yikes.

So the man of the house is going to be away on business from tomorrow until Friday evening. Anyone up for a kegger at my place?

Yes sir.

GDP = C + G + I +X - M

Where C is private consumption (purchases of durable and non durable goods, and services), G is govt expenditure (salaries, purchases of goods of services, public works), I is investment (purchases of capital goods and inventories variations), X are exports, and M are Imports.
The Gross Domestic Product, is the value, at current market prices, of the total final output produced inside a country during a given year.

GDP + M = C + G + I + X

Aggregate supply = Aggregate Demand

I hope so. Thus far it's just you and I drinking heavily while eating pizza. That's a night where video games will be played and they will be played badly

That's not nearly as interesting as I thought it would be. I guess it's true, adding some Latino flavor will up the sexy of just about anything.

I found Rev. Jeremiah Wright's speech at the NAACP dinner to be fascinating, even with all political implications removed. Did anyone else see it?

No politics in the Lounge, I'm sorry. I may make a thread.

Has anyone read Neal Stephenson's book Interface?

I swear to god, the man pretty much wrote about this election, but in the 90s (and it took place in 2000, with the assumption that Clinton didn't serve 2 terms...but hey, you can't get the names right)

Either way, his USA was in an economic slump, the president was a conservative idiot (not all conservatives, just this particular fictional conservative) who had horrible foreign policy, and then there was this pretty rough election process where the candidates were fighting pretty hard to the end.

Every night I read 10 or 20 pages and think "holy hell"

It makes me think (wishfully) that Snowcrash won't be fiction....

Why does it feel like summer already on the lounge.

I've felt my brain nearly die twice now.

I don't blame you, it has the element of being a weapon capable of instilling fear in the enemy. "Did you hear what Seven's army's got man? They've got rocket propelled chainsaws! WE'RE DOOMED!!!"

But as far as being a tactical weapon, it would be ineffective. You would have to hit dead on target and hope like hell it doesn't just graze them, there's the possibility that the ass end of it might flip over on it's way to the target (unless you've got one hell of an ignition system), and then you have to consider the maintenance of the chainsaw itself... how sharp are the teeth... how long has fuel been in the engine itself...

Personally, I'd much rather haul around a Gatling Shotgun.

I also want more photos of this. MEOW!!!

Okay, rant time.

Has anyone here ever dealt with a relative hell bent on being a self destructive asshole who refuses to listen to reason? If you have, I'd like any tips you might be able to offer.

See, my little brother has been going through this ego trip for the past 6 months or so. We both live here at home because neither one of us financially self sufficient enough to move out on our own, and we're certainly not moving out on our own with each other. I respect the fact that this is my father's house and will do what is asked of me as far as helping out around the house and paying bills, and I keep to myself mainly. He on the other hand chooses to spend his money on going out and getting smashed, getting tattoos and piercings, acts like a belligerent asshole, and when asked to buy groceries comes home with pizza and beer. Night and day between the two of us personality wise.

Yesterday, he was asked to do something really simple (go in his room and nap instead of sitting on the living room couch and snoring like a chainsaw). He woke up, got pissed, started cussing, and stormed off. He spent the night at our sister's house last night, and after talking with our mom on the phone, attempted to talk sense to our brother because she herself went down this same self destructive path in her teens. Nothin' doin', he wouldn't hear of it.

Now I find out that at work today he's been telling his co-workers we THREW him out of the house, not that he LEFT. He plans on pawning some of his stuff and either living out of his car or crashing at a friend's house until he can get an apartment later this week. I tried to talk him out of this for our Mom, but he laughed it off... he's here now, but none of us have spoke to him. Tense situation.

And I feel bad about this whole situation, because I feel like there was something I should have done that I haven't done to prevent this. You know, taken him aside and given him some kind of sage older brother advice about this. But the way he laughed it off earlier... and the way he's ignoring our older sister... I just don't know if it would have been of any use anyway.

*sigh*

and is there something wrong with me that thats my first reaction?

on a related note; for some reason all the new female police officers i've seen have been fucking gorgeous, and relatively small statured. i keep thinking that someones just asking for trouble.

though personally i wouldn't mind some.

What is it about a woman in a law enforcement uniform that is so damned hot to men?

I don't even like Jessica Simpson that much, yet that picture is a complete turn on for some reason.

Is it wrong that upon reading The art of War by Sun Tzu my first thoughts were not ' this is good battle strategy' but rather ' wait a second...this can be applied in trying to get a date!'?

Seriously, a lot of it seems to apply when approaching women...I'm sure Sun Tzu is turning in is grave as Is say that.
