‘Vampires vs. Zombies Deathmatch,’ Part 1
There are two distinct factions in this country right now. It’s not a political feud, Republicans vs. Democrats or some such nonsense. It’s much more serious than that.
It involves those who are infatuated with vampires . . . and those who are obsessed with zombies.
I’m not quite sure how this happened, but zombies and vampires have both secured a sizeable amount of market share within our popular culture. With no marketing on their behalf, I might add! They’re in books, movies, greeting cards, you name it. You can’t swing a dead cat without hitting either a vampire or a zombie. (Now that’s a Halloween sentiment if ever there was one.)
Since that holiday is just around the corner, I’m going to take some blogging time to examine this issue, which is gaining prominence with each passing day.
Oh, and in case you’re wondering, I’m firmly in the zombie camp. However, there are arguments for both sides. Stay tuned to find out what they are.

Think About This:
“Everyone is a moon and has a dark side, which he never shows to anybody.”
Mark Twain, author and humorist (1835-1910)
Mike will tell you that one of the sweetest things I ever did was send him a text that said, “if you’re ever attacked by a zombie I love you enough to shoot you in the head.”
We also picked our last apt because it was well fortified for a zombie attack.
And you always say that you’re coming here if there’s an invasion. So I guess that tells you we’re in the same camp!!! Sorry Russ!
