Same sentiments come from my home too! Especially T-Dog. I like to imagine that he's never on camera because he's off doing the things that everyone else should be doing - killing off rogue zombies that walk onto the farm, checking no zombies have got into the water supply, securing the fences, fetching stuff from the town. That's the real reason we never see him, he's the unsung hero of TWD

Imagining zombies carrying metal detectors..
Must admit, I was putting some stuff in the car last night and I pictured a zombie walking out of the field next to my house and walking up on me while my back was turned..

Have you seen the one in Chester Zoo?
You know exactly what I'm going to ask, don't you. The dumbass question of how everybody in the world got infected with zombievirus.
I am thinking that Krusewalker is right and it is something the government have managed to get hold of and it has got into the population by accident or on purpose. I am kind of hoping that this is what the guy at the CDC whispered to Rick at the end of the last season and we'll find out about it either this season or next season!
As for how it would get out into the world, lots of films seem to rely on the idea of it coming from a lab. They're not technically zombie films but in '28 Days Later' is is something that scientists have been creating and infecting lab animals with, then an animal rights activist sets the animals free and is attacked by one. And in 'Rec.', it's released by a bio-terrorist who gets a sample from a lab. I think that's probably the most 'realistic' idea!

That's actually a really clever idea! I need to buy a copy of that on payday..
