In case of a Zombie Emergency…

I'm currently hanging out at Soonercon, which is a Sci-Fi/Fantasy Con in Oklahoma City. (Was on a romance in fantasy panel yesterday with Candace Havens! Much fun!)
Anyhoo, one of my favorite things to do at SFF cons is to wander through the dealer room. There you find everything from steampunk goggles to comic books (I bought most of Season 8 of Buffy). (Actually, it's astounding that I'm here. I had a conflict with another con and sent that con a cancellation email. I thought. Apparently I sent it to the Soonercon folks. Oops! Fortunately, I was still on the programming grid and in the book, but even if I hadn't been, that would be okay. Hanging out at the cons is fun both with and without being on panels).
Back to the topic: Today, my favorite thing in the dealer room was the Zombie School table. I mean, I hadn't really considered the possibility of a zombie attack, despite the onslaught of zombie books and movies lately. Am I prepared? Do I need to take extra steps?
Are all you Whiners prepared for zombie potentiality? And at the risk of putting a humorous spin on something sad and serious, I couldn't help think that zombies or not, the idea of an emergency kit is a good idea. My heart goes out to all the folks who lost loved ones or their homes or suffered injuries in all these recent horrible storms. Stay safe, Whiners.
