I think some of ya'll are going about this all wrong!
1. Main weapon - you need something simple, with stopping power against all that soft, rotten flesh - a high powered rifle isn't going to do anything - you need something with stopping power that will take a head off:
SPAS-12 shotgun - Semiautomatic, folding stock, plus it looks cool and can shoot just about anything.
2. Backup weapon
Zombies getting too close? out of ammo? swords never run out of ammo, but still take heads or limbs.
Japanese Katana - can't go wrong with a sword made for slicing.
3. Vehicle
It doesn't have to be fast or sexy, just something that can go everywhere and take a beating:
Some throw pillows and a portable fridge, and you're good to go!
4. Babe to repopulate earth with
Some of you guys have it all wrong - you need a girl you can fight with, not spend your time and energy defending.
Leiticia Pestova - Classical musician, model, cage fighter, and she knows how o handle a gun - I think she fits the bill.
5. Theme song
You only get one, so you better like it:
6. Battle cry
Let's go - you wanna live forever?

I respectfully disagree with your objection to high power rifles. The M16 holds tons of ammo; has a quick reload time; wont overheat easily like a shotgun; fires rapidly; is very light and portable; easy to clean (unlike shotguns); parts are numerous; can be used for close quarter and long range applications; and while the entry wound may be quite small, the exit wounds are indicative of the internal damage that they inflict.
High power rifles are the way to go. I would have also picked a sword as my secondary weapon, but grenades are soooo much cooler! Take out 10 or 20 of those zombie bastards before they can even get close to you.
Nice chick though! Where did you find out about her?

I dunno, zombies are pretty squishy and you have to take their heads off - and you can load just about anything in to a shotgun.

I disagree with your disagreeance... respectfully. It's not worth a velvet painting of a whale and a dolphin getting it on.
My guess is that you were saving "It's not worth a velvet painting of a whale and a dolphin getting it on." for a special occasion. You thought this was a good time to use it. It wasn't.

Ok, everybody in this thread needs to make one of these. I'll email everybody with a map later to "The Bunker" where we'll restock weapons and vehicles will be waiting.

The .223 is a wounding cartridge (see the original "analysis" done by the Rand corporation). Your hypothetical zombie is not going to call for the medics. You want a first shot kill, and the shotgun is it. The M4 heats up like a mother, and the rifling wears out fast with full auto. It is light.
Chick carries HK G36k, you carry the drum shotty.
