September 13th For Rage, Full Game

    I was just over on the app store, looking at the comments for Rage.  How any one could give this game less than a 5 star rating is beyond me. I gave it a 5 star rating on the app store just now and I wish I could have given it a 6 star.
    Its been a cloudy, cool day with temperatures in the 40's and a 15 MPH wind. To while away the hours I played a bunch of the Rage game and was engrossed. It is like someone has dropped you down in one of those Lethal Weapon movies and it is a fight to the finish. Someone calls, you don't hear the phone. Your wife says something, you don't hear her. Finally you beat a level and lay the Padster down and start to flex your stiff fingers. You feel drained and a bit cocky from all the mutants you have ushered into the great mystery that is death. You swagger just a bit as you grab a beer from the fridge and walk outside. What? There's no one here to ask for an autograph? After shooting and moves like I just put on, out there in the ruins of the future Earth? Well, even Van Gogh was never appreciated in his time.
     I'm really looking forward to September 13th. That's when the full version of Rage is scheduled for release. I'll be in the 'virtual line' waiting on that baby to appear on the old app store. Until then I'll content myself with being a sharpshooter. I have to go now and rest my hands, lest I fall prey to mutants later in the evening.

The White Chicken Mystery

    The other night I happened to come home very late. It was the middle of the night and I was driving up a steep mountain road. Near the top I saw something white in my headlights. It was standing in the other lane, standing very still. It was a large white chicken. It was probably a rooster because I thought I could see his comb as I whizzed by at my customary pace. He never moved a muscle. This is weird, don't you think?      After a couple of days to consider this phenomenon, I have come up with some plausible answers for his bizarre behavior. 1. He was conflicted whether or not he should cross the road. 2. He was feeling cocky and decided to play chicken with the traffic. 3.He was being hen-pecked at home and had decided to end it all. 4. Someone had egged him on to do it. 5. He had just watched the movie Fantastic Four and decided to try to stop a truck the way that Ben Grimm did on the bridge. 6. He had driven himself crazy wondering if ...

Batman Lives In Washington, DC

    Hey, everyone. I just read an interesting article on Washington Post.Com by Mike Rosenwald. It was titled Who Is the Route 29 Batman? This is a true story about a guy that the cops pulled over. The guy was driving a black Lamborghini with Batman plates. There were yellow Batman symbols on the doors. They had a video from the police car that showed him being pulled over. He was wearing a Bat-suit which he said cost him $5000. His gig is that he visits sick children in area hospitals and hands out Bat-Toys and Bat-books to cheer the kids up.     His name is Lenny B. Robinson and he says that the 'B' stands for Batman. He is perfectly sane and is just a good dude trying to make a difference. He is a self-made millionaire and is currently having a duplicate of the Batmobile custom-made at a cost of $250,000.    It was a hoot, watching the cops having their pictures made with the Bat Guy. Someone asked him where Robin was and he said that the boy won...

Cake Is Better Than Swords

Hey, everyone. On Thanksgiving, we had a get-together here at The Author's Green Retreat. One lady brought a cake which I wanted to show you. It had the look of a Roman Coliseum about it. Inside it was just as decadent...and fun, as ancient Rome. When I cut it open, homemade marshmallow cream began to ooze out in several spots, running over the chocolate cake and peanut butter icing. It is best served warm so the cream is fluid. Very tasty. The same lady, and her children, are people who have played a lot of Skyrim. They gave me some pointers on the game because I am having problems with it. They taught me how to fast travel, and a ton of other things, but the main thing was the armor and clothing problem. This is a little embarrassing, but let me explain. Okay. For several weeks when I played, I would enter towns and everyone I met would comment on my nakedness. I would select a tunic and shoes, whatever, go back around people and they would say something about it. I guess I w...
