Pearls of wisdom
Watch the company you keep and choose your friends carefully, there's six billion people in this world and not all of them are gonna like you for you. Once upon a time my English teacher gave me this great piece of advice; he said "boy, there's no person like third person". He was a good man with a flair for the dramatic matched only by a crippling loneliness.
A word for George Romero
Say what you will about the undead, but you can't get a better spokesman than Jesus Christ, arguably the most successful zombie of all time.

Aliens
Crop farms are a popular spot for alien activity but I usually find it's the shower where I have the most out of body experiences.
