    So.... I thought I knew where this play was going. It's short and quick and seemed a little predictable (which is not this playwright's style). It's not predictable. And we learn a lot about the characters, especially the mom in a short period of time. Well done.

    After reading this, I just really hope that the character Jojo finds someone to cuddle with. The friendship between Thad and JoJo unfolds quickly, but naturally. Great story about love.

    I cracked up reading this play! These three knuckle heads are the best. I started off reading it thinking how weird it is that women are the ones that get screwed and are now zombies, when these jerks get to have cookouts. But the characters are much more than male chauvinist pigs ( thank God). The lack of women forces them to face themselves in ways that they didn't have to when women were plentiful. And by the end of the play I found myself rooting for them to survive.
