And zombies.
Dude...
I've GOT to tell this one. True story.
I have a friend out here, who is completely insane. His father was a 'Nam vet IIRC. The back-story: They used to live on Lana'i. His mother divorced the father I think because he was insane. The father WAS a pilot. They spent all of their savings on a plane. The father flew it around on weekends, and I don't know exactly how, but he crashed it here on Oahu. Now being completely broke and with their only way home crashed, they have basically set up camp here. Or so he tells me. Take the above with a grain of salt. The rest I have witnessed with my own eyes:
The kid is now a skydiver (Not entirely legally). He WAS going down the path of piloting, which is how I met him, but sadly he strayed. His father is the "controller" at the Dillingham field Unicom. As long as I have known them both, they have been 100% that the storyline of Resident Evil will come true. They genuinely think zombies will attack. And to prevent this, they have made their "home" in a pair of shipping containers, in an old world war two hard-stand. Its basically a bunker. They have contingency plans for a zombie attack and have actually fashioned barricades they can hide behind while beating back zombies. (Oh yeah, the son is home-schooled by the way). This was all bad enough. But it gets worse. The military does a lot of training in the area around the field (Live fire, I believe) and the field itself is used at night for army helicopter training. Well, these two go walking out in the bush and bring back whatever the army leaves behind and try to fashion it into defensive weapons (I've seen just crates full of ammo and IIRC a single grenade, but I dont know whether that particular weapon is active, and I havn't seen any other explosives). Ive see what seems to be a 75mm shell, and just recently, they have purchased several guns. Yes, the two guys who actually think zombies will attack, now posses an old Japanese WWII army rifle, and a fully-automatic, folding stock AK-47. I wouldn't have believed him if I hadn't seen them myself.
So, if zombies DO attack, I know where to run! lol. This is just proof home-schooling and living in a shipping container is NOT good for a kid. Just as a visual, I pulled these pics off of google maps, and labeled everything I recognize. This picture is quite old, as there are now 3 more containers in front of the "compound" and about 10 cars and 3 planes in various states of disrepair scattered all over the grass.
