ATTENTION ALL ZOMBIES!!!
Through much contemplation and a little heeding of advice, I have decided not to concern myself with city permits. It is my intention to do nothing more than invite my friends and their friends to join me in a nice springtime stroll along the pedestrian passages of our great city. As a performing arts enthusiast, I have decided to enjoy this activity fully costumed and "in character" as a zombie (or living dead, as I have recently been informed, is the proper term). If my friends and their friends would like to join me in my choice of dress, then I invite you to do so. To my knowledge, the knowledge of my peers, and my understanding of the information made available by the city to the average novice researcher, there is no permit required to go for a walk in a costume.
However, as a good citizen, I am obligated to inform my friends and their friends of the obvious. I want to make it PERFECTLY CLEAR that I do not advise out of responsibility, but out of respect. When I go for my walk on Saturday, May 26th 2007, I ask anyone who would walk with me to heed the following....
DO:
Have fun.
Be unique and ENTERTAIN PEOPLE!
Use common sense (please).
Respect and obey the law.
Stay on the sidewalks.
Grin at a soccer mom.
Be safe and look out for the safety of others.
Take pride in your surroundings and put your trash where it belongs.
DO NOT:
Pretend to attack people who do not want to be attacked.
Approach people who do not want to be approached.
Touch people who do not want to be touched.
Grin at a Roller Girl (no sudden movements either, they may feel threatened and wheel you into a coma)
Follow people who do not want to be followed.
Disturb people who do not want to be disturbed.
Enter local businesses unless you are invited by an employee.
Fair enough? I think so.
Last but not least, WALK AT YOUR OWN RISK. Your participation in this walk is voluntary. I cannot and will not accept any liability or responsibility for the actions of my friends or their friends. I also cannot and will not accept liability or responsibility for the physical health or well being of anybody who decides to walk with me. Please understand that, due to the nature of this walk, it will require physical activity equivalent to... walking. If you are afflicted by a health condition that may limit such activity, it is strongly recommended that you do not participate.
I really want for this to be accepted and to become a regular thing. Please do your best not to ruin it for the rest of us. Use your brains... Then eat some.
Thanks.
