what was terrible is that I saw him riding a horse into Atlanta and I said to beau: man, what a terrible mistake. This guy is going to get ambushed.
Then I said: I wonder if zombies eat horses.
Man. Talk about instant answer.
Can I mop your brow? I am at the ready with the fearsome brow-mop.

The CDC is a perfectly reasonable place to head to in that sort of emergency. I don't blame the hero for not anticipating that you could turn a corner and find about a bazillion zombies just hanging out waiting for dinner to come by.

I agree about the CDC, but a large metropolitan area where there weren't good avenues for escape? I would be really uncomfortable going in without trying to get a lay of the land.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I would be really uncomfortable going in without FLAMETHROWERS.

I don't have cable, so I'll be late to the zombie party, but I do want to see it, if only to see what they do with Atlanta. They were looking for zombie extras this summer, but I knew that shuffling and moaning in 90+ heat had the potential to turn me into an actual zombie.
If I were trying to get to CDC, I wouldn't go through downtown, but I suppose a zombie plague might take down traffic reports and Google maps.

a TANK was just sitting in the street, you know? I'd have to have a Hummer, minimum.

Strangely enough, I do believe that GPSs would still be workable a month after a Zombie Apocalypse, which wouldn't affect the satellites until they start to drift out of orbit when there's no corrections sent up from the ground.

I think my first clue would have been the massive stalled exodus on the freeway out of town, that apparently happened so fast authorities weren't even around to convert the inbound lanes to contra-flow traffic for the evacuation.
Of course, I've always thought large cities would be deathtraps in a zombie apocalypse, and you'd want to head for military basis outside of metro areas to find the remnants of society.

I actually wondered how that horse survived being attacked on that farm.

There wasn't any evidence that zombies had actually made it to that farm, was there? If any stragglers happened to stumble by after the farm owners killed themselves, it might have been skittish enough to stay out of their reach. (Or alternately, a good hoof to the head from a frightened horse would probably put down an individual zombie pretty handily if Rick was able to do so with a few whacks of a baseball bat.)
