Zen Squirrel Now Rocks

    Hey, everyone. A while back I did a post about a squirrel that was acting rather peculiar here at the green retreat. At that time he was sitting and staring at my car for a while, not moving. In the post titled The Zen Squirrel Theories I drew some conclusions as to what could be the little guy's problems. Just lately it seems that the formerly meditative animal has fallen back into the carnality of this present world. He appears to be wearing a hairpiece although it's not as though he needs it. He has a wonderful, even bushy, head of hair. At least it seems that he maintains his healthy diet of acorns and nuts. I chose to set forth a few thoughts as to what may be the reason behind this squirrel's new 'do.
1. He is a Justin Bieber fan.
2. He lost an election bet with a squirrel from another state.
3. The chick squirrels really dig him in long hair.
4. He was getting a little thin on top and it was effecting his self-esteem. I certainly sympathize with that.
5. During his zen days he tried to levitate my car. When he failed he lost faith in spiritual things and decided to rock on.
6. He went from being a casual gamer to being a hardcore gamer and wanted an appearance that would open doors at the south by southwest geek conference.
7. He bought an I-Pad and went from being a constructive member of society to a burn-out.
8. The guy that lives close to him bought an app at the app store that was capable of doing weird things to a picture of an otherwise harmless animal.
    On a more serious note, I bought a new game at the app store today. It's called Archetype and I can't recommend it. Believe it or not, you can only play this game on-line as multiplayer. That makes it useless to me because I never play multi-player. The money lost is not an issue because the game only cost a paltry (cool word) 99 cents. The point is that they should mark the game page quite plainly that it is on-line only. If I could play the darn game it looks like it would be pretty good.
    Hey. I'm loving the game called Rage, which I recently reviewed. I play other games now and they seem to be slow by comparison. For 99 cents it is head and shoulders above some of my other favorites. If you recently bought an I-Pad, jump over to the app store and buy the thing. If you do you almost certainly will have a squirrel like this in your yard, which is cool.

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...
