I’m lucky.

I take a bus to and from work and for that 25 minutes it takes me to get home ( on a good day that is ) I can talk to my friends on the bus, I can read, eat my Popcorn flavored Jelly Bellys and I guess I could take a cat nap now and then but  my mouth falls open when I ‘m sleeping  so the naps are out.

Sometimes though I stare out the window and count how many people in cars are picking their noses or reading while they drive ( I am NOT making that up ) or I read those signs that tell you about road work or accidents.

I like to read them to remind myself that not driving has it’s rewards- like I don’t have to worry about navigating my way around wrecks or stalled cars.

That’s all I get out of those signs- all they are is electronic road flares. Whatever. Boink they’re there for one minute and I’m gone the next.

Well wouldn’t you know it, somebody somewhere has found a way to hack into those boards and depending on where you live you may have seen messages that read:::

 

 “DAILY LANE CLOSURES DUE TO ZOMBIES.”

“RAPTORS AHEAD — CAUTION.”

 “NAZI ZOMBIES! RUN!!!” and “ZOMBIES IN AREA! RUN.”

It does get better

there was also a sign that read:

The officials in Texas and Illinois are concerned- they’re afraid that drivers could be distracted by the signs and end up causing accidents.

First of all I’d like to reassure them- I’ve watched lots and lots and lots of drivers talking on phones, putting on makeup, shaving, and in some cases flipping each other off and chasing each other around the freeway while in the midst of road rage.

And guess what.

The freeways are not covered with cars or bodies.

Besides.

Anything that promises me, even in jest, that Zombies are roaming the streets and that packs of Raptors are hiding on the exits waiting to attack unsuspecting commuters

all I can say to that is:

Hey

it’s good for a laugh.

And who couldn’t use a few of those nowdays?
