My Theory About Why So Much Drama Happens on Ramsay Street

Last night after watching Neighbours I couldn't help but wonder how so much drama happens on one street. No one street should have that much drama. Hell, no one street should have even half as much drama as Ramsay Street ... and Ramsay Street is only a small court with half a dozen houses!

So what could be the cause of all of the Ramsay Street drama?

My theory is that the street itself is some kind of dark magic hotspot that draws horrible people to it. That is why people like Paul Robinson and Izzy Hoyland are constantly moving there.

The street also seems to have the power to bring out the worse in people as can be seen with the Kennedy's and Scully's ... well actually, I can't say for sure if the street perverted the Kennedy's or if they were already like that when they moved onto Ramsay Street. But growing up there can't have been good for the Kennedy children.

Occassionally innocent people will move onto the street. But they quickly become victims of the street. Some of these victims will move away from the street, but most of the time the Innocent have come under the spell of the street and are unable to move away and slowly become perverted by it.

But it seems that Ramsay Street needs its share of blood and will go to great lengths to get it in the most dramatic way possible. Take for example the Bridget Parker and Ringo Brown. They were both hit by vehicles driven by someone on the street. That kind of thing may happen, but not twice in less than 10 years. The street was clearly working its dark magic when Bridget and Ringo got hit. And clearly just injuring Bridget wasn't enough for the street, which is why she later died after getting married.

It's the spirit of the street trying to pervert the inhabitants and spread fear and chaos though Australia.

Or maybe it's the ghost of the original Ramsay trying to kill everyone so that he once again has company ... although with the number of people who have died while living on the street you'd think that Ramsay would have more than enough company. Even if the company is just horrible, horrible people who have always been that way or have been turned by the street.

My Thoughts on "The Truth About Zombies"

First off let me begin by saying my plan of heading for the hills at the first sign

of a zombie apocalypse is a good one. I'm basing this on the fact that's precisely what the survivalist interview in the zombie doco would do. So I've got to be onto a good plan there. Although I might have to say goodbye to Josie, since it'll be hard to keep track of her while running from zombies in the bush.

But by the sounds of the zombie doco an actual zombie apocalypse is very unlikely. Unless, of course, scientists have actually created a rage virus just like in 28 Days Later or the rabies virus mutates and becomes faster acting and a hell of a lot easier to spread. But this will probably require the help of scientists.

Of course there's always the possibility that there's a few necromancers running around the world. In which case zombies don't need the help of science to become a reality. The necromancers have dark, zombie creating magic to rely on!

But then the zombie doco did imply that necromancers do exist in the form of cult leaders.

Like we needed another reason to fear cults and those who lead them!

But that's what the makers of The Truth About Zombies said; all cult leaders have the power of hypnotising their followers and turning them into brain dead zombies who do whatever they're told ... although truthfully, I think that they were looking for a realistic zombie metaphor and cults and their leaders were an easy connection to make.

I would've really been far more impressed if they had have said that drugs and those who peddle them being more necromatic and zombie creating. I mean the writers

of The New Adventures of Captain Planet made that connection, and really the drug addicted zombie does sound way scarier than the brain washed cult zombie.

So it really sounds like the zombie doco people believe zombies are a way to express concerns about social problems; if people are participating in something morally questionable then they become zombies and create more victims who become zombies themselves. It sounds like I really don't have anything to worry about when it comes to zombies and the impending zombie apocalypse. As long as I stay away from anything morally questionable, that is!
