Everyone understands the smoke signals from inside the bowl. This short but sweet first installment packs in: Lots of Zombies (it’s the Big Apple, after all). Explosions. Awesome Views. Big Guns. Big Samoan Drag Queens. Kind Bud. Hot Babes. Mormons. More Zombies. Laughs. Musicians. Thespians. Millionaires. Dogs.” Lynda says the high-rise in question is 8 Spruce Street.
