Surfers attacked by zombies

BORA BORA — Two surfers were attacked by zombies shortly after coming out of the water at Bora Bora.  The victims were identified as Sun reporter Surfdaddy Orca and his friend SpUnKy Young.  The two were initially approached by a blood-covered avatar who claimed to have been attacked by “Jaws.”

Surfdaddy explains: “I noticed that she belonged to a scripter’s group, and asked what she considered her best piece of LSL.  She walked out into the water and rezzed a small, funny-looking platform.”

What happened next was a scene from Night of the Living Dead meets Beach Blanket Bingo. With moans and groans, zombie after bloody zombie emerged from the platform and walked menacingly out of the surf toward any avatar within 20 meters or so.

Surfdaddy again: “I barely had time to take a quick snapshot when I noticed that she was turning green with molting flesh and hunched over.  She said ‘I’ve been bitten!’  I replied ‘Don’t bite me!’ and then she did!”

This was no griefer, and it was all great fun.  Blood splurted out and she started to boogie to some strange graveyard music. Surfdaddy gave SpUnKy a boogie animation and suddenly *everyone* was dancing, surfboards and all.  She then buried herself and came out of the sand like a corpse in a zombie movie.

“It was an awesome display of art and scripting virtuosity” Surfdaddy concludes, “I was totally blown away with laughter.”
