I really do not like these episodes focusing on just 2 people.

In World War Z (the book), they flee north because the zombies all freeze solid in the cold and can't move.

Yep. It was an issue at first though because most people didn't have the supplies to survive the first winter. Then, when the ice thawed, they had to deal with the zombies again.

That was a good book. I should probably read it again soon.

Shit, a smart group would thrive in the north. You can freely scavenge and build. You would be able to hit all the stores, get remaining supplies, grab tanker trucks and pool the fuel. Use empty cars as barricades. Could set up a nice spread.

The bonus is free whack a mole on a frozen zombies. You could grid out and take out thousands.

You might be right but a Florida boy like me wouldn't know the first thing about winter survival. I literally don't even own a winter coat, a pair of gloves, skull cap, etc. How do you even survive a winter up north without a refrigerator? I feel like you'd have to kill an animal to eat everyday with no plant/berry life..

Combine my lack of knowledge with the mass hysteria of a zombie apocalypse and I'd have no chance surviving that first winter.

If it stays cold all winter, you have this great big natural refrigerator/freezer available.

Refrigerators are also used to keep food from freezing in below freezing environments.

True but in talking about winter survival, having your food freeze is better than having it spoil. You can always thaw it.

My grandpa was born and raised in the mountains of northern Idaho. They didn't have power and once the snow started, the roads to town were impassable.

For winter, they had a building with screened in sides. They would hunt deer, dress them and then hang them in the meat building. You wanted them to freeze solid so that they would ride through the occasional non-freezing day.

They would also slaughter pigs in the fall. Some of the pork could be cured and smoked but most of it would go to making and cooking up a shit ton of sausage patties. The patties were then layered in big crocks. The pig fat was rendered down to lard and then poured over the sausage patties. This preserved them through the winter.

Meat was also canned but mostly as a survival measure. Grandpa said it wasn't very good.

Fruit and vegetables were canned except for things that stored well, like apples, potatoes and onions. Flour, sugar and stuff like that also stored well in large bags in the fruit cellar.

It's definitely do-able. It's just a ton of work, You also have issues if you have a warm winter (that's what the canned meat is for).

So ladies, on last week's episode, Daryl horking on snake shank. Most disgusting thing ever or sexiest?

I know that when he and Beth get drunk and have it out, that might have been the best scene in the series.

They both BROUGHT THUNDER in that scene. Nearly had me saying McConaughey who?

[Easy 6]

Norman Reedus says the slow episodes are over, the shit is supposed to start hitting the fan tonight...

[Aries Walker]

I'm losing interest in this show, fast. Tonight's episode did absolutely nothing to advance the plot or their characters, with the possible exception of splitting up Beth and Darrell, which they could have done in the first five minutes. The characters continue to be dumb as bricks, and the person-fighting-out-of-an-impossible-situation schtick has grown old. Next week looks like another 'character study', and now they're already advertising that there are only three episodes left until the end of the season.

I don't think I'll be back for season four.
