Hello Kikianime,

nice that you enjoy both podcasts - the original and the podcast about the podcast. And I absolutely agree with you. And yeazh - zombie-topic = pretty cool.

All the best!

Hello all,

Just a little background on the username. Back in the day (when the first Half-Life was released), a buddy and I would get together and play Deathmatch all weekend long. He had a very nice rig, and I was using a crap PC with software emulation for graphics. He would use a Kermit the Frog skin, and since my PC sucked, he would only use the crowbar as a weapon. So, as I would run around the map, I would suddenly hear, "whoosh!-whoosh!-SPLAT!!".

After weeks of that, I decided to make my own PC so I could compete on even terms. After I started playing with that PC, the Kermit crowbar beatings dropped to zero. At that point, I named my new PC the Kermit Killer, and then decided to use that as my gaming handle for most games.

I love the Muppets, and still regard the Muppet version of "Treasure Island" (with Tim Curry as Long John Silver) to be my favorite version of the tale.

Anyways, back to zombie related topics....

Hi, I have just joined. I have started listening recently, as I was looking for some Audiobooks. This makes a great bed-time story to help you relax (though I very rarely fall asleep before the chapter ends). I am from Australia.

Hi hbg,

nice to have you around! And yah, WA (and WND) work out to be the right sleeping pill - except maybe for some of the more action-packed episodes.

All the best!

Howdy y'all,

I'm Aerock from Chesapeake, Virginia. I'm a staff sergeant in the Army National Guard and I'm an Operation Iraqi Freedom & Operation New Dawn veteran. I started off as a heavy vehicle operator, became an artilleryman, and I am now a cavalry scout. I work full-time as a DoD contractor with North Tide Group, LLC as a Total Records and Information Management System Specialist. I have been in and out of college since 1999 (changed my major 5 times), and I'm considering going back and actually finishing a degree.

I am an avid comic book enthusiast and have been reading/collecting since 1989. My first comic book was Amazing Spider-Man #312 - "The Goblin War" featuring the Green Goblin versus the Hobgoblin with Spidey caught in the middle! Since then, I have amassed over 16 long boxes worth of comics, all bagged and boarded. I'm also a fantasy & sci-fi fanboy. My wife isn't into any of these genres, but I'm slowly converting her. We love to watch Game of Thrones and The Walking Dead together.

I just recently learned about We're Alive from two of my Army buddies from New York. They spoke highly about this podcast and I hope that this series will keep me at the edge of my seat for a long time!

Hello Aerock,

man, that's rock'n'roll to my ears, what you write there. More gun-experts in the war against 'em zombie-dudes!
And comic books/ graphic novels in huge masses? => Awesome. Do you own the "Walking Dead"-stuff as well? And what is your opinion about it? Since a few weeks I consider buying the first to compeniums of "The Walking Dead" ...

All the best!
Liam

You know what's funny about me? I am qualified on bunch of different weapon systems due to my Army training, yet I hate guns. Ironic, no? As far as the comics go, I do not own any Walking Dead, but I did buy the first compendium for my wife to read in between the AMC series's seasons. I absolutely love the show, and in my experience, reading a storyline is way better than watching it's television/movie counterpart. That being said, I will eventually read the comics, but only after I know I won't be running across any spoilers for the TV show! Speaking of The Walking Dead, I can't wait for this Sunday!

I guess that will earn you a medal, 'cause in that case you will treat weapons with the respect and the lives of others even more, which each and everyone deserves. +1 !

All the best!

Right with you there! Two great zombie storylines that we have to wait a week for the next fix...
