    Wow, sweetness

    During the huge firestorms in california a few years back, my family and I stayed aboard the Mercy while it was docked at 32nd Street in the San Diego Naval Base. It was awesome, I woke up and there were no cars, no people, no animals. The sky was red at 2 in the afternoon, it was snowing ashes, and there was no sound. It was like Silent Hill. We stayed aboard the Mercy because it was a hospital ship and my friend Heidi’s newborn child was having problems with the airborne ashes. And the fires were coming right over the hills by our homes. It was a frightening, awesome moment of my life.

    That’s the USS Abraham Lincoln, CVN-72, homeport Everett, WA. It’s pretty awesome to be on, too. It has it’s own small hospital, right in the center of the ship, where it’s most stable and protected.

    Yeah, but can they fight a Tripod? 😀

    I would fucking LOVE that. Except the snowing ashes part. That’d be kinda freaky.

    Dude. I was pullin solid snake manuevers left and right. We lived across from a elementary school and it was freaky. It’s all dark, red-skies and raining ashes. I thought freaky acid-spitting monsterzombies were going to attack. I had a length of pipe and everything. Granted it was the handlebars of a Razor Scooter, but dammit in times of zombie apocalypse you have to make due with what you have.

    You sir, just made my month. I salute thee and your zombie apocalypse.
