I was given the Zombie Survival Guide as a present - and it's saved my life countless times.
In total seriousness, at Indiana University of Pennsylvania, my brother is taking a course on Zombies and THIS is their textbook. They have to learn how to zombie-proof a home, what weapons are actually effective against zombies, what sterotypes have movies perpetuated about zombies that are not actually true, and the meaning of zombies in modern society. It sounds like the best class since "Special Pastries!"
Now, I just need a book on protecting myself from Velociraptors!

OH - I forgot! Speaking of books that are too awesome for words - please please PLEASE for your own sake, check out Giraffes? Giraffes! by Dr. and Mr. Doris Haggis-on-Whey. It's one of my favorite book of all time, and it's the first in their series - The Haggis-On-Whey World of Unbelievable Brilliance. www.amazon.com/Giraffes-Dr-Mr-Doris-Haggis-On-Whey/dp/0743267265The second book in the series is called Your Disgusting Head: The Darkest, Most Offensive and Moist Secrets of Your Ears, Mouth and Nose and it's also the greatest thing ever! Seriously, everyone should to the Unbelievable Brilliance! I haven't read the third book - Animals of the Ocean, in Particular the Giant Squid - but I must have the entire set!

I always liked the Role-players Bible. The class sounds very liberal arts.... much like lithuainian pottery making and basket weaving. Very helpful in today's work world I am sure.

It's turning out to be tougher to get good grades in that class than he thought - I guess he took it as a blowoff, and he wasn't ready to treat zombies with the seriousness they deserve. Guess he learned his lesson.
A friend of mine also has a Vampires in Literature class that sounds fascinating - why don't I get to take any classes like this?!?!

Very helpful in today's work world I am sure. Goes a long way in explaining why these kids have a jillion dollars in student loans to pay off and a job that requires them to ask "Would you care for any fries with that?" Yep! There's four years of school down the drain. HANK.

The class sounds very liberal arts I know you meant no offense, but I just wanted to point out that liberal arts classes/schools do a lot of good in the world - I'm attending one, and if I ever decide to go to law school (as everyone who has ever met me has suggested at least once that I should do), I'll be lucky to have had classes covering english, history, philosophy, political science, international studies, and ethics. I think someone who ONLY studies LAW without the background and meaning behind it would make an effective lawyer on paper - but a terrible person if they don't have the moral integrity or respect for what the law respresents and the people it's trying to protect. I'm not looking to do one menial assembly line task throughout my entire life, so I found it necessary to improve on the skills I'll need to be a complete and well-rounded person, so that I can make my way in the world no matter where I end up. Ridiculous waste of time classes are not synonymous with liberal arts. In fact, my brother attends a state school not well known for being liberal arts - and he's a business major. My friend with the vampire class is in a very specialized school and he's going for a nursing degree. Don't diss liberal arts majors - some of them might be silly, but I still believe they're a necessary counterweight to a culture that constantly reduces people to mere resources - valuable only in so much as they can perform one meaningless function in conjuction with every other replaceable part in the corporate machine, valuable only as a means to a material end.
