Well, if it's space, then there isn't much air for an aircar.
If you're going to be literal and make sense, then you can't play.
What? I'm not allowed to hit people? Wesley: Not people capable of genocide. Angel: Those are exactly the types of people I should be allowed to hit!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Oh, and another issue that hasn't been explored yet regarding a moon base - can a moon base be defended from zombies? Can zombies survive without air? Can zombies successfully amble on the moon? Would the moon's 1/6 gravity enable zombies to walk normally rather than amble? What would be the most effective anti-zombie weapon on the moon?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
YOu can either take money out of your 401k or borrow against it for a downpayment on a house, ita. It's one of the allowable things that isn't taxed all to hell and gone. I think.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Well, zombies are technically reanimated flesh. I think they don't breathe. So, OK for the moon.
The real question is, how did they get there?? Did zombies on earth organize a colonizing mission?? Weren't there enough edible brains on this planet?
Or maybe we imported them to fight the teeming Martian invaders in their forward attack base.

D'oh! I should have asked, but I didn't even know it was a question.

The zombifying agent is space bacteria, which thrive in the low-grav, no-air lunar environment. First space casualty, and bam!

Whether or not you can borrow against a 401k plan depends on the rules of the particular 401k plan. Or at least that's the way it is here.

DX has described this process to me -- borrowing from your own 401K. And because you're paying yourself back with interest, you're only benefitting yourself. Of course, it may take a while to get your 401K high enough to make it worthwhile borrowing from it.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I guess I need to admit that there's no point saving for a house right now. But what about when the bubble bursts? I could have a downpayment ...
Yes. If you can stand to live in it while waiting for the market to go back up, now is a good time to start saving for the bubble burst. This is my plan, anyway.

That's what I was thinking. See, we don't know if someone dying on the moon will turn into a zombie. So before we do anything else, we really should send someone to the moon and kill them.
Maybe Carrot Top?
