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.

Shadowgun: Crushing The Driller On Level 4

Hey, everyone. Let's talk about the game called Shadowgun, the I-Pad game with which I have a love-hate relationship. Most of you who made it past the evil Cyber Lobster are doubtless locked in a death struggle with the Driller at the end of level 4. At this point you have been in the cave for a long time. The Driller breaks through the rock wall and chases you through the tunnel as you try to shoot out the green lights which slows the Driller down. If you are slick enough to shoot out all the lights and emerge from the cave, a rolling door crashes on the Driller and crushes his aggravating carcass. I have tried and failed to beat the Driller at least 250 times. I hate the Driller to the heights and depths my soul can reach. I hate it like a plague. I hate it with intensity of feeling. I hate it like a rich man hates taxes. Excuse me, I got carried away. We had a big dinner here at the green retreat and my friend Trevor was ...

You're Aiming the Missile Where?

Hey, everyone, out there in game-land. The number 1 game on the friendly neighborhood app store is Call of Duty: Strike Team . No wonder, because it is a terrific game. The farther I play, the cooler it gets. But before I get to that, what are all these numbers indicating on my gun? Has to be some sort of ammo indicator for the clips, I guess. either that or some of my compadres has trouble doing his math homework. Whatever. Hey. Check out the picture of me hitching a ride on an enemy truck so that my team can infiltrate a missile silo. Do you like the face mask? I bought it at a store called Fashions by Bane. Ha, ha. (Batman Reference) On this mission, my team was assisted by a Russian Spetsnaz squad. How's that for detente, comrade? These Spetsnaz guys make everything fun. What I mean is this. We shoot bunches of enemies and get into the bowels of the silo. We get to the gantry where the missile is (Pictured above) and we see that the rad...

Shadowgun: Killing The Windbreaker

Hey, everyone. I thought it might be a good time for a bit of an update on the riveting game called Shadowgun. Consider this your spoiler alert and tune out if you want to. Once you get past the dreaded Driller, things get better but you are certainly not out of the woods. You will want to make sure you keep a full clip in your gun as you stroll through the realm of the evil and crazy Dr. Simon. But hey, you're John Slade, the Shadowgun, and wherever you set your foot is the place to which your authority extends. I love the way that some of the barriers disintegrate under the impact of bullets. I didn't learn this at my mother's knee but I darn sure know it now. I have learned that there are certain places it is good to plan on using the rocket launcher. Keep your stock of those filled. There are these transporter guys who are aggressive punks. The only way they respect you is if you kill them, so that's the way I roll. As...
