Zombies

At first I thought it was a joke...but it's not:

CDC (Centers for Disease Control) Recommends Preparing for All Disasters -- Even Zombies

You can get the full run down on Yahoo News

Normal natural disasters are floods, tornadoes, hurricanes and earthquakes and being prepared for disaster means being ready for any type of emergency -- including zombies. On Monday, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention blogged about preparing for disaster and reminded readers that in the event of a zombie apocalypse, basic preparedness will help even if there are flesh-eaters roaming.

According to the CDC blog, if a zombie apocalypse breaks out, the CDC will investigate the event just like they would any other disease outbreak. CDC investigation and assistance would include "consultation, lab testing and analysis, patient management and care, tracking of contacts, and infection control (including isolation and quarantine)." Just like any other disease outbreak, the CDC would try to determine where and how the outbreak started and would make every effort to determine how to best deal with an outbreak of zombies.

So, even the CDC has a sense of humor! I give them credit for a very tongue-in-cheek way of getting the message of Emergency Preparedness out there!

Your Nose...

Some wise humor from Cleve Bishop:

TOP TEN THINGS TO DO WITH YOUR NOSE WHEN YOU’RE BORED…

10) Look down it at somebody (Pride)

09) Poke it into someone else’s business (Strife / Dissension)

08) Snoop around with it (Nosey / Gossip)

07) Get it out of joint (Anger)

06) Cut it off to spite your face (Bitterness)

05) Pay through it (Materialism)

04) Find something right under it (Love / Salvation)

03) See past it (Eternity / Hope)

02) Keep it clean (Humility / Obedience)

AND THE NUMBER ONE THING TO DO WITH YOUR NOSE…

01) Get it stuck in a book (The Bible!)

The picture of patience

Just had to post this for all the cat lovers (Rich!) out there. Watch this interaction between a kitten and a cop. Give the man credit for trying to ignore it and continue with his job. Despite all the kitten can do he does not get angry...good guy!

Now, having been the wife of a policeman I know how these uniforms are made and his wife is NOT going to be pleased with all the "pulls" in the material. Each time the sweet little kitty puts a claw into the uniform, it will pull a thread. She can take scissors and snip them but my, oh my...how many do you think there will be? But then again, maybe she'll just let him take care of it!

(BTW, the video was captured on the dash board camera in the patrol car, there is no sound)

Monday!!!

And I did not realize that I hadn't posted since Thursday...didn't mean to be gone so long...perhaps this drawing by the "Naked Pastor" will explain things!

Office Work...

For those youth who wonder what people do when they work in an office all day...
