Four scholars at Oxford were making their way down the street, and happened to see a group of ladies of the evening. “What’s this?” said the first. “A jam of tarts?” “Nay,” said the second, “an essay of Trollope’s.” “Rather, a flourish of strumpets,” advanced the third. “No, gentlemen,” concluded the last. “Here we have an anthology of pros.” |

Live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about his religion. Respect others in their views and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life. Beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and of service to your people. When your time comes to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home.

People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made. |

Of course! If its raining during the Zombie outbreak I can't be worrying about an umbrella. I mean come one I only have two hands, and those will be filled with: 1) a slice of meat lover's pizza-keep 'em coming ma!; and 2) the family 1860 Navy revolver. Because if we're fighting Zombies, we're doing it in style.

I also have general security experience.
I worked in security management many years ago and, at one time, held a bodyguard license...

I have "Personal Protection Specialist" experience.
It's been over 13 years, so I'm sure I'm rusty... but, if the need arises, ask away.
