Zombie Infection Update

     The title is a bit misleading, I suppose. The update does not mean that Gameloft has updated their game, but merely that I want to tell you guys how it's going in my quest to stop this zombie outbreak, down in South America.
    This game gets better and better as it goes along and I have had a blast with it. It certainly has faults, but it is definitely worth the $4.99. Last night I played it for several hours and made steady progress. I love how the writers wrote the script for this game. I was trying to find a ship, down at the docks, and went into a big building. There was a huge pool, with dead bodies floating in it. I wanted to drain the pool, but when I cranked the drain valve open, it only drained half-way. So, guess who had to climb down there and do the job manually? Not to my surprise, I was attacked by zombies and yet another alligator. The dudes who wrote this had a landing built over the main floor and I fled up there. It was probably my only hope for killing this alligator. He was fast and aggressive, but like most of his breed, he was unable to climb ladders. I had to take the occasional break to kill a climbing zombie, but I kept pouring bullets into the scaly hide of the gator until he cashed in his chips.(died) Then I was in an area stacked with cargo containers and a zombie on an overhead crane was dropping crates on me. I had to climb the crane which towered over the open ocean; quite scenic, for a game. Once up there I had to deal with zombies and to my surprise, a bunch of mutated, attacking birds. Luckily, there was a tripod-mounted machine gun up there  and you definitely want to use it in your battle with the birdies. The birds are really angry. The older heads among you will think about the Alfred Hitchcock flick, The Birds.
    I am currently stuck on what I believe to be the ultimate boss battle of the game in which mutated sea monsters are coming over the side of the ship. I may have to go to you-tube and check for a way to beat the thing.
    This game is fairly deep, (lots of content). The writers did a creative job and other than the things noted yesterday, I highly recommend it.

The Biscuit

    Hey, everyone. What a relief that Christmas is over, huh? I don't think it was meant to be the way it is.     I started thinking about the so-called good 'ole days today. My wife says that at her house, they would take a left-over biscuit and shine their shoes before church. I one-upped her by saying, "Oh, yeah? I ate the biscuit when everyone got finished with it. And I was grateful for it." Truly, though, you can and people did, shine their shoes with a biscuit. Hey, they were greasy little buggers.     Speaking of greasy little buggers, I remember when everyone had wells and were very conservative about water, particularly those of us who had to crank a handle up and down to get a bucket of water. There was no daily bath. (No showers in those days, mate.) About twice a week we took a bath and here's the recipe: The oldest kid took a bath first, then the next oldest etc. You can see why younger siblings hated the older. Bathing in the...

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...

Fishdom,the Smart Cover and the Natural Blond

      Hey, everyone. I have played several different games lately. Mighty Mouse has gone 'free' and I've played it a little. It's okay. You fly through the air and punch bad guys, mines dropped by Oil Can Harry's plane, and try to avoid hitting anything unless you are pushing a button that gives you super speed. There are a lot of levels but they get harder, fast, and that takes some of the fun away. Still, for free, I can't complain. Also, Polly Purebred is fairly attractive, for a mouse. I wonder if she is a natural blond? Only her hairdresser knows for sure.      Fishdom Harvest HD is an older game that we've had for a while. This is a fun, relaxing game that has you swapping tiles so that you can complete levels and advance. As this happens, you earn in-game cash and decorate your fish tank with fish, plants and equipment. I like it a lot.      I understand that Shadowgun is now coming out with a version that is o...
