Men In Black 3, Just Empty Black Suits?

    Hey, everyone, out there in the world! Nice of you to stop by. Today I downloaded Men In Black 3 for I-Pad. There were a number of positive reviews on the app store, but there were several reviews that complained about the game failing to open. This was my experience. It opened to the screen shown above and froze there. At least it was free. I have an I-Pad 3, so maybe you will have better luck with yours.
    EA games is having a big sale for the holiday weekend. I already have most of the titles which are on sale, however. I did buy several games this weekend, though, and I'd like to tell you about them.
   Get Out of My Galaxy is a Mario type of space game in which you control a monster with 4 arms. The dude eats rocks and has a penchant for slapping little cone-headed aliens. There are a certain number of aliens to slap on every planet, then you move on to the next world. There are power-ups to grab as you go along, for health and other things. There is prickly vegetation which detracts from your health and the cute little aliens, if you allow them to approach you, will suck the life out of you. I have a Mario space game on the Wii and this is not quite on that level, but let's face it, the Wii game was $50 and this game is 99 cents for  about 100 levels. Do the math.
   Get Out of My Galaxy has excellent graphics and would be a great game for kids. I like it for my own play as well. At least I don't get stuck. Hey, I slap a few cone-heads and move on to the next planet. I don't even have to wear a black suit. If I did, where would I find a tailor to make me one with 4 arms?
    I have been playing another 99 center called Boomlings. In this match 4 game ...you match 4 (duh) monster faces of varying colors and expressions. There are bombs of like colors to the faces but the faces themselves are as follows. There are happy blue faces, frowny orange faces and cross-eyed red faces. You clear screens and grab some power ups. What I don't like about it is this: When you lose a level it puts you back to the start. I hate that but the game is pretty good and certainly worth a solitary dollar.
    Once upon a time, I did a review of a game called Brickshooter Egypt. It is one of those games that you just play and play. I played an early version of it but never bought the premium game. Yesterday I caught it on sale for free and jumped on it. You'll really like this game. I love how it sounds like granite slabs sliding and grinding as you slide stones toward the center of the screen, fitting a Pharaoh's tomb together. (Sounds like an Indiana Jones movie) If you can't catch it for free, you should still get it.
   Well, I am playing hooky from typing  a manuscript so I will bid you goodnight, from the green retreat.
   I'm CE Wills.

  1. When shopping for Men's suits, the color is a very important factor to consider. You need to choose which one will help you look good.

  3. Hey, Alex. I appreciate your comment. I was over on Amazon.com the other day and saw a nice suit for a reasonable price. I believe it was tropical weight, by Darya. I know that living in a remote area makes shopping by internet more convenient. Good luck!

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...

Egg Art

     Hey, everyone. One of the odd customs in America is the Easter Egg Hunt. Here at the Green Retreat, we do a hunt every Spring. I just ran across some of the pictures from this years hunt and it is obvious that an artist had sneaked into our midst. The orange egg is a rendering of one of the Angry Birds of gaming lore. If I were a bird and had to pass an egg that size, I would be angry too. Ha, ha.      We typically will dye about 10 dozen eggs and people get quite creative with their quotes and colors, as you can see. Many of the eggs are a bit risque for these pages. After having a few laughs, we hide the eggs. All of them are never found, which is cool. It is amusing to see old men (me) and all ages of folks, walking around with a basket on their arm. Some of the hiding spots are dastardly. Like eggs hidden in the guttering downspouts and ten foot up a tree. The kids are perhaps the most devious at hiding the colorful orbs, goi...
