Why is this a Blog?

So, I was thinking about that book I always semi-joked about writing called "Everybody Hates Mike Jones". Well, I then realized that nobody would buy it if I ever wrote it, so I decided to turn it into a blog so I wouldn't have to put in the effort of making a book to have nobody read it anyway. Enjoy!

My new Lost

As many of you know, I am obsessed with Lost. It's a show that I just freaking love, but ever since it ended, I have been looking for a replacement.

And I found it.

While I am starting to feel a mild over-saturization of zombies in culture (a story for another day), AMC's The Walking Dead manages to use zombies not so much as the main part of an OMG zombies plot line, but as a novel backdrop for some awesome storytelling. The characters are believable, and the issues they encounter expand beyond OMG zombies, touching upon things like race and identity (Am I really myself if I am a zombie/could you really convince yourself that the zombie you just shot is just a walking body). Really cool stuff.

P.S Me and Sara are watching LOST...so expect more posts about that in the future...sorry
