Two tidbits, or Zombies!
Yesterday a police officer dropped by the fight club and left behind an interesting tidbit of information. He was interested in taking up a self defence-oriented martial art because he and his colleagues have recently had a few experiences with American Iraq veterans who are armed, angry and not quite in this world. If the Toronto cops are noticing an influx, I can only imagine what American cities are dealing with.

On the Queen streetcar yesterday, at Spadina, I went past a crowd of about 25 roaring and staggering people made up as zombies. The guy standing next to me sighed. "Ho hum, another dull afternoon on Queen street."

Just to make matters more bizarre, the zombies appear to have been holding a fundraiser for Toronto Cat Rescue.

Of course, Western Martial Artists know how to deal with zombies.

If I hadn't been so busy this weekend, I had been thinking about going zombie-ing.

That sounds exactly like [info]rfmdcpei. Was it a thin dark-haired man with a moustache/beard who said this to you?

It was kind of a heavyset guy, if I recall.
