Let's address this question with a few facts about zombies first: they are dead bodies that have been reanimated, but are still decomposing. A newly dead body would still suffer the effects of rigor mortis, so a just animated zombie would not move well...at first. After being dead for about 4-5 days there would be enough decomposition and bloating going on to seriously affect a zombies' strength and movement. As to how I would handle a zombie plague, I would be wearing platemail armor 24/7. For me that is easy to do - I'm a member of the SCA and own a suit of custom armor as well as a small armory of swords, daggers, axes, and other medieval weaponry. Guns are ok in a pinch, but I dislike relying on ammo. A decapitated zombie is a neutralized zombie. You must find a safe haven - somewhere to rest, recuperate, and perform daily functions. An upstairs or attic is good, because if you take away the stairs, zombies don't climb. They're not that agile. An attic is best - pull up the ladder and the string and they cannot get to you at all. Just make sure you pick an attic with roof access so you can get out and away. Never go into a cellar - zombies don't climb, but they can dig - that's how they got out of their graves in the first place. Don't put your trust in deep water to form an effective barrier - a zombie filling with gases from decomposition will float. As for your gear, pack nonperishable food items, a good first-aid kit, flashlight/extra batteries/bulbs, rope w. grappling hook, wooden matches (don't rely on lighters), any antibiotics and medicines you can lay your hands on to fight nasty infections, and bottled water. If possible, establish a "supply depot" where you can store extra supplies you might come across as you forage. Remember that zombies move slower than you, but don't get surrounded - after all they don't need sleep -you do. If you are fighting them, and have more than one on you, take the easy shots - cut off hands as they reach for you, or sever legs as they walk. Once they are less of a threat you can decapitate them at your leisure.

Hmm.. if I was a kind person I might blow up the chemical plants and wipe them out possible saving the rest of the world. But I'm not.
So.... I would gather food, guns, amo and steal a boat then head to goat island (it's a little island in the middle of the river with goats a cabin and a garden)
I would set up camp. Live off the veggies and goats mainly. But would also use the boat to hit all the stores along the river to gather supplies.
Assuming they can walk under water like the zombies in land of the dead. We would need to build a fence along the water and have lookout posts.
Also I would steal lots of explosives from the coal mines for multiple uses.
With a few pot seeds to plant and stolen goods to eat until I get everything rolling. I could be very happy.

Well for me living in the mountains of Vermont and if there were really Zombies I doubt they would be very good hikers and climbers. So I would pack my gear and lots of gund and ammo and food and water and find a nice safe place in the mountains and live like Grizzly Adams until the plague passed. Its amazing how long a twinkies shelf life is.

I would have no problem surviving a zombie plague. I am a natural blond and have nothing to offer them. If I wasn't a natural blond, feed them the neighbors and get the heck out of dodge while their busy eating ;^)

I'd do it like in the Dawn of the Dead. I would get all the guns and the ammo I could and just start spraying bullets everywhere lol. And try to hole up in a place where they couldn't get me but that I would still be able to kick some zombie butt. HAHA

Take a look at any video game resembling anything close to zomvies. Obviously a shotgun is the most effective weapon against zombies!
I would get a shotgun.

i would go to trigger happy heaven.
get guns, more guns, even more guns, lots of ammo, sharp objects, a few bombs( at least u can go out with a bang and its less painful than a bunch of undead taking u apart) food and other supplies, go to a defendable location, and blast every undead in firing range.
flamethrowers are a favorite, so are shotguns.
(u might have to pay damages, if anyone else survives.)
just don't do it in this world/reality.

Raid Wal-mart for all the ammo they have and had a head shot contest. Probably pick up some canned good while I'm at it. And laugh at all the anti-gun nuts while they are disemboweled and eaten alive.

Sacrifice the liberals (since they have no brains) and while the zombies are busy bustin' open their skulls, shine the giant GWB light in the sky. Super Joe Lieberman and his junior sidekick Kinky Friedman will soon come to the rescue.
