Everyone who has been paying attention to television or movies for the last 35 years knows that it is coming and that it is inevitable. The dead are going to rise up and come after the living and we all need to be ready! There is no need to spend hours researching just what you will need. You can have it all delivered to your door in the Zombie Survival Crate.
Just because they’re dead doesn’t mean they approve of your shopping habits. There’s nothing they can do about what you buy or don’t buy, but they can remind you that there’s more to life than shopping by showing you their dead and zombified faces every time you take that little plastic card out of your wallet..
..provided you’ve got one of these special edition prepaid debit cards, that is.
The artwork on these cards is by the talented Charlie Adlard, who is currently the primary artist for Robert Kirkman’s highly-acclaimed The Walking Dead series.
The art might look familiar, but that’s probably because they’ve already been published in the comics or in the graphic novels that collect a set of issues of the series. My favorite one features the zombified versions of Rick, Michonne, and Andrea shown above.
Which one’s your favorite?
The Walking Dead prepaid debit cards are available online from Card.com. At least they’re not credit cards – The Governor would be responsible for collecting any late fees.

If you’re an active Foursquare user, then you probably have a pretty detailed log on the places you’ve been to and when you were there on your account.
Foursquare has just unveiled a new tool that their users can utilize that makes taking a trip down memory lane easier and more pleasing to the eyes. It’s dubbed as the Time Machine and it’s basically a data visualization tool that turns a user’s check-in data into an interactive infographic.
It’s not just a pretty graphic either, as the user can zoom in to certain colorful orbs to examine that particular check-in.
Foursquare is a social network, after all, so it includes options for users to easily share their individual graphics with their networks. Check out the clip below to see one user’s trip down memory lane care of the Time Machine.

8 Great Gifts for Father’s Day 2013
Posted in: Today's ChiliFather’s Day. When you get to my father’s age, it becomes quite difficult to find something original as a gift. Ties, while quite nice, are well-overplayed and no longer an option. Take him out to lunch? Sure… but again, not the most original of ideas. Movies are a good idea… but unless it’s a drafthouse, it’s really not that special.
So what to get for Dad on this Father’s Day? Well, here are 8 ideas…
Space — the final frontier. These are the vintages of the Starship Enterprise. Yes, indeed Trekkie fandom has reached a new high (or low if you don’t get it).
