Summary: Hilarious!
Comment: In the year 2025, a deadly air born virus known as Yuppie 25 escaped from a secret government lab. It was believed to have been on a scrap of toilet paper stuck to the bottom of a scientist's shoe as he left work. Yuppie 25 spread around the world at lightning speed. Riots broke out as all the leaders in the world died out. No country had leadership or laws any longer. The Yuppie madness sent people into rages, murder went unchecked.
One scientist noticed that certain people of a certain class and life style seemed to be completely immune to the bug. Tests showed that they had an unusual enzyme in their blood that was traced to a cheap preservative used in generic barbecue sauce which apparently mutated when it was grilled. The people who had consumed large amounts of the barbecue sauce on grilled meats over their life times had built up a natural immunity to Yuppie 25. Within a few months most of the population of the earth was dead. Only Bubbas and their families survived untouched. All others were zombies.
Bubbas had become the last hope for humanity!
***** Twenty stories and poems, including the Forward, grace this over-sized, paperback anthology. Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Horror, Red Neck jokes, and some pretty hilarious (if not warped) humor has been duct-taped together into stories for your enjoyment - by various authors whose sanity can not be guaranteed. I loved every bizarre tale! *****

Summary: One story by Rob Gates ruins the book...
Comment: What could have been an okay anthology, turned down right horrible with the story by Rob Gates. Did this author pay to have his story in this book? Or perhaps someone did it as a favor? Either way, that paticular story lacked not only basic writing skill and creativity, but feeling. It was hum drum line after hum drum line going in no particular direction. While other stories in this book try to make up for it, all in all this is too much money to spend for such an amareturish work.

Summary: Revenge of the Bubbas
Comment: The year is 2025 and a Government Plage is let loose that kills Yuppies, well some turn into human flesh eating Zombies. They continue their lives driving their BMW's and of course having Yuppie dinner parties. They are now called Yombies.
The Bubbas aren't infected and it's because of their preference for pork rinds, twinkies, spam, cheap Bar-b-Q sauce with meat cooked outdoors and of course cheap beer. No fancy foreign beer or cheese for these guys and gals just the real stuff.
Hillarious moments and some that are just downright funny if y'all have any bubba bones in your body. A few that have a higher gross factor.
To have taken on the task of outlining the basics of the story and then hand it out to various author to put their own twisted Bubba minds to work. Selina Rosen should be give a big hand, Yombie of course.
