           I only hacked into the Pentagon because I heard they 
           got gigabytes of porn hidden in there. I figured, it's the Pentagon, 
           they got to have something sweet -- not too demure, not too sleazy. 
           Tasteful, if you know what I mean. 
            
           Anyway, I found a file called the Romero Project. It 
           was too intriguing to pass up. Besides, I knew a Laura Romero in 
           college and she was quite the hottie. I swear, I spent hours trying 
           to crack that file, but no go. 'Course, that just made me want it 
           more. You know how it is. No friggin' piece of code was going to stop me. 
            
           Then my hard drive seized up. No big deal, we are 
           talking Windows here, right. Wrong. I rebooted and watched as the 
           machine efficiently shredded everything -- from the Temp directories 
           to the Bios. Damnedest virus I ever saw. 
            
           Very impressive. As I reinstalled my OS (and then 
           re-reinstalled it -- so damned impressive), the reference clicked. 
           George Romero -- the zombie movie guy. 
            
           So I'm thinking this whole zombie mess was created by 
           the military. Hell, it all could be a field test! I'll check out more 
           and <file ends>
