Post Life Is Just An Ongoing B-Movie
Yesterday Newsweek came in the mail, and on page 53 (this is the March 8th edition) I saw in red letters, to make it stand out from the rest of the article, "Warning: Austen's zombies are about to walk the earth again."

That would be Jane Austen, by the way, not Austen Powers.

I have to say I'm encouraged that zombism has penetrated so far into the modrun consciousness. I sure wish I could ask Jane Austen herself what she thinks.

She'd want her share of the royalties.

Well, yeah, she was broke as a joke most of her life! And considering the shameless ripping-off of her name brand, I would totally support her efforts in this direction.

Now I have this image of a Victorian woman using a Henry-Martini .45-70 rifle to head shoot zombies.
I like it! :D

Regency, actually, not Victorian. Which might reduce her to using a blunderbuss.

Probably a musket, rather than a blunderbuss; those are of an older provenance.

See, if I ever write something historical, I'm doing my research Right. Here.

I think the results are more fun if you just skip the research. Ed Wood lived by that creed, for instance.
