Heavy Leather

I love the fall. I always look forward to being able to breakout the jackets and coats. To me, sliding into my old leather bomber jacket is like sliding into a hug you get to wear all day. Heavy? Heck yeah, probably 10bs or so, (closer to a ton, if you listen to my wife) but it’s a comfortable weight. Solid, protective, cozy, I love it.

Plus it adds to,”The Look”, that gets people out of my way when I’m Christmas shopping. :)

And so it begins...

... not with a bang, but a, "What the heck do I really want say?"

The best blogs I've seen so far(or at least the most entertaining) seem to have more random musings than actual recitations of the days events, so I'll try to stick to those whenever possible.

Have you noticed that the new housing developments are perfectly set up for the coming of the Zombie Apocolypse? First, they're all surrounded by 7-9 foot high concrete walls (block the street entrances and the corpsified won't get in) Next, if they do get inside the wall, all the houses are two story jobs (destroy the stairs and the rotten bastards can't get at you), and set so close together, you could run planks or extension ladders through the upstairs windows to your neighbor's house. Third, they all seem to have some kind of park and/or water feature at their center (gardening and water supply). I'm telling you, the government know it's coming.

Disclaimer: No I don't really think it's coming. This was just one of the odd thoughts that popped-up on a long commute. If yer interested in Zombies you should go read,"World War Z" by Max Brooks.
