Finally, SC starts to address the zombie problem

Thanks to The Herald of Rock Hill for alerting us to this:

FORT MILL — Two electronic road signs on S.C. 160 near the York-Lancaster county lines were apparently tampered with sometime before 4 a.m. Sunday, said Lance Cpl. Billy Elder of the Highway Patrol.

One sign read “Zombies Ahead” and rotated to “Watch for Hunters.” On the other side of the road, another sign read “Be alert for Tanks.”

Those signs, typically used to alert drivers to road construction or changes in traffic patterns, still displayed those incorrect messages Sunday night….

Actually, I learned about it from Meg Kinnard of AP, but she got it from The Herald, and I don’t want them yelling at me for sharing their picture with the world, so I’m making the point of giving credit where it’s actually due. (And if it DOES bother someone, I’ll take it down. But look at it this way, Paul — I’m bringing you additional readers.)

It’s good to know that finally, we are no longer turning a blind eye to the serious zombie problem up in York County. I hope we can continue this important initiative in these parlous times. But just watch. As soon as she hears about it, Nikki Haley’s going to want to gut the Anti-Zombie Department, just when we need it most. No, wait — far as I know, the Tea Party isn’t pro-zombie, as much as it may be anti-public broadcasting. So maybe we’re OK…

    We need some of those for cellphone using drivers around Columbia–just encountered one of those cars apparently operated by a zombie, and I saw said zombie with a cellphone in her hand….

    Love it, Corey. The first things I thought of when I read Brad’s post were Tea Partiers and Nikkibots.

    That’s why we stockpile guns and ammo. Those of you who didn’t are now just part of the food chain.

    Ah, that explains the behavior of the General Assembly and the DMV. Coincidence…I don’t think so.
