Looters Will Be Shot On Sight

I always love days that cement my faith in humanity.

So, doing the DOOTwear thing at the local mall fleamarket this weekend.  Things are slow but picking up.  Then a bunch of lights go out. A while later a bunch of sirens get closer as the local FD comes to check it out.  Turns out a transformer blew hard starting a small fire.  So maintenance guy does what he's supposed to do and pulls the fire alarm to clear the mall. As I'm gathering the essentials, a group of girls walk out of the RadioShack and I overhear one of them say "WooHoo, time to rack up at Rue21".

Think about that.  This POS's first instinct during a potential emergency/crisis was to go looting. And she's going to vote and breed.

"...And Light Reflecting Off Venus...."

Seriously, THIS has got to be the stupidest attempt at defending a screw-up since Will Smith in MIB:

Phoenix Air said the transfer was routine, insisting the coordinator kept proper distance from the patient and that “compression” from the telephoto lens made have made it look closer.

So 'proper distance' from an Ebola victim is w/in 6'? 

We're screwed.

Journey Quest Season 3 Startup.

The folks at Zombie Orpheus Entertainment are working on gauging interest for Season 3 of JourneyQuest. 

 

If you're a gamer and have never heard of this, here's S01E01 et al:


What they need are at least 4200 people to 'pre-pledge', iow show they'll likely pledge on a KS so they can get this started.  This series totally rocks (along w/ most other things put out by these guys) so I will definitely be a backer of this.  Any other gamers who read DOOT should also help out.

Chicago Cultural Festival at Uof I:Champaign-Urbana

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (WLS) --

The ABC7 I-Team is reporting a rash of random attacks near the University of Illinois flagship campus. A safety alert for students was posted after Champaign police say five students were jumped and beaten by a roving gang over the weekend.

I discussed this a week or so ago but this bit was buried inside an article on ABC:

While police here have posted an alert for last weekend's attacks, crime records reveal there were at least three similar unprovoked muggings the previous Saturday - among 45 assaults in the area since October 1.

The C-U police specifically say it resembles a 'big city gang initiation'.

More of that 'Chicago Culture' spreading throughout the state.
