On night skies and zombies

The paparazzi were fluttering about the kitchen of chez trek this afternoon. It seems that someone tipped them off that they had seen the first sign of the onset of the zombie apocalypse. Heedless for their personal safety, they came in droves, toting their Nikons, swooping and swirling, seeking the perfect angles with which to document this momentous event.

At first, it looked like the target might outwit the photographers. The evidence was cleverly camouflaged.

Is that it? Is that what I think it is, peeping out of trek's shoe?

Undaunted, they slyly waited around until the victim target could avoid them no longer.

:: gasp :: I think, I think... It just might be...

Realizing that what limited cover there was was blown, the target gracefully conceded defeet defeat and freely allowed snapshots to be taken.

Ack! The zombie apocalypse will begin at any moment now...

I just heard a rumor that trek's cast on a Grownup Skweffle and that there might be slight pattern modifications!
