2 Drowned, not drowning. They’d been buried at sea. The
driftwood they clung to was a coffin lid. One bit me. Will I become a zombie now too?
3
So, you get me out of the cement boots, then a stunt double takes over &
gets thrown in the lake, right? Is that how all snuff movies work?
4
Keep wading. Don’t cry. It’s a myth that Amazon piranhas strip people to the
bone in a matter of seconds. Bob? Where’ve you gone? Ow! Ow!
5
A wet tee-shirt contest wasn’t the best way to brighten morale on an arctic
expedition, was it? At least the ice will preserve the bodies.
6
Since we found the white stick sticking out of the beach, all ‘Danger
Quicksand’ warnings will now also be printed in Braille.
7
You thought wearing ear-plugs would save you from my siren song? Telepathy
doesn’t work like that, mariner.
8/. Surprise lads, I caught a mermaid. Very rare. Makes a change from missionaries
on Cannibal Island. We’re having sushi tonight. Bon Appetite.
9/. “Why the pain? Were you wearing a crucifix when I bit you?” “Wearing? I have one tattooed on my heart.” “So sorry, my darling … My dust.”
10/. “But vampires need permission to cross a threshold.” “Correct, and thank you for the welcome mat on your doorstep.”
11/. Diary of a zombie - Monday - BRAINS! Tuesday - BRAINS! Wednesday - BRAINS Thursday - DITTO. Friday - nearly shot in head today - BRAINS!
12/. Jones, you mispelt 'synergy' so badly you summoned a tentacled doom-monger from the 51st Dimension. Kindly get rid of it, or you get an F.
13// Your review of my book says it lacks a beginning, middle or end. After you've been through my meat-grinder, so will you, critic.
14/. Son, some of you is mine. Some is adopted. Your brain is original, & your legs. The rest of you came from, well lets call them donations.
15/. Our cat kept eating the goldfish, so we got an electric eel. The cat stopped attacking the fish. Actually, he stopped doing anything.
16/. Rapunzel’s hair didn’t quite reach the ground from her tower-cell. Her rescuer prince was fat. Her head broke off. He fell to his death
