All righty, we have ourselves a whole mess of zombie shirts!

I'm a zombie traditionalist in that I think zombies must be reanimated dead not just whacked out dudes with a bad cold, but it seems I'm in the minority on that subject. It ain't a zombie if it ain't dead in my opinion. 

Here we have a couple shirts for folks involved in the debate over fast or slow zombies. 

This is another shirt for the eco-zombies among us. It ain't easy being green…and undead.

Finally, we have the obligatory, "don't tase me bro" shirt. Not really about zombies per say, but is fun nonetheless. Heh heh

This new shirt asks the question every zombie asks.  Do you has a flavor?  Heh heh. lolcats style.

I took part in a group conversation, some years back, about some some cannibal that was in the news at the time.  Eventually, someone asked about what human tastes like.  The obligatory "tastes like chicken" joke came up but one lady gave us pause when she objected to a claim someone made that humans taste like pork.  It wasn't so much what she said, but how she said it.  She gave off the impression that she had actually tried some cooked human at some point!  We all laughed nervously and moved to a new topic.

Do you has a flavor?

I'm working on making this one into an apron. Heh heh.  Perfect for the cook of the house.

The new shirt continues the eco-zombie theme. (Eco-Zombie - hmmm, I may have just coined a term. Heh.)

Some in the eco movement think that humans tend to suck.  If you fall into that camp then zombification may be for you!  Sure, you will emit some methane and other gasses as you decay, but it is as carbon neutral as folks can get.   Zombies don't drive cars, eat processed food or use electricity.  Become a zombie and save the world!

Do your part for the environment!  Cast off this mortal coil and join the armies of the undead!

Well, I finally gone and done it. The first t-shirts are now available at the Hungry Zombies shop!  I have a bunch more in the pipe and they should arrive soon.  They are only available in black and charcoal, but I can add a wide assortment of colors if yall want.  Let me know.

Fast zombies would catch me in a second. That tends to suck. This shirt lets folks know where you stand in the great slow vs. fast zombies debate.

Slow zombies are too slow to be scary. This shirt lets folks know where you stand in the great slow vs. fast zombies debate.

After being less than impressed with my protoypes I decided I needed a better idea of what to expect out of the manufacturing process.

Toward that end I have made a couple shirts with test colors on them.  (I highly recommend this to anyone thinking about using an online service to make tshirts and the like.)  This way I will know what colors will work best to achive my design goals.

So, HungryZombies.com shirts and stuff will be arriving very soon!

Well, I got the prototype shirts and discovered that what looks good on screen does not necessarily look good on a shirt.  The red chosen for the blood looked too dark on the finished product.

So, in order to make sure this does not happen again, I am preparing a couple shirts with color tables and sample images.  This way I can see how the colors are shifted in the manufacturing process and have a better idea of what to expect.

OK, I have ordered a pack of the Mainstay 3600 Emergency Food Rations, a pack of Datrex 2400 Calorie Food Rations, a pack of Vita-Life ER Bars and a copy of the book Crisis Preparedness Handbook: A Complete Guide to Home Storage and Physical Survival.  They should arrive in approximately one week. 

I aim to test these food rations for myself and write a review.  In an earlier post I linked to an article from Popular Mechanics where they did a small taste test of these products.  While interesting, it didn’t really help me decide which survival ration would be best for me.  So, I figured I had best try them myself before committing to buying a whole case.

I also indend to write a review for the book as well, but I can't say when that will ready. 

I'm working a line of shirts and stuff with, of course, a zombie theme.  I have ordered a couple protypes to make sure I have the design process figured out and and to check the quality of the finished product.  Selling a crappy product is worse than not selling any at all in my book.

I hope to have the first one ready to purchase by next week.  If the shirts come out ok then I hope to branch out into other items.

HungryZombies.com is now at a new host.  My last host was so slow that pages would time out while loading.  So far so good.  The new host is ninja fast compared to the last and seems to have a good support staff.  Hopefully, now that things are running more smoothly, I will be able to make more posts.

Hello and welcome!

I’m planning on keeping this site mostly about zombies and horror, but it is very possible that it will drift off into any number of other areas of interest.  My main goal is to have fun and enjoy working on this site.  Hopefully, you will have fun as well.
