Game Review: Zombie Air Sniper

    It was the Fall of the year when the plague came. Roughly half of the population either died outright or were in the process of turning into zombies. They prowled at night, gorging mindlessly on anything they could obtain, but human flesh was their favorite sustenance.
    What was left of the military from The Great War rallied to protect the people. Men like myself, with a military background, were pressed into service in many capacities. I became a gunner on a helo. Our first mission came on my very first night, my first flight.
    Some folks in an isolated farmhouse had a ham radio and had called for help. It was a large 3-story house and refugees were fleeing to it from the surrounding countryside. Unfortunately, zombies were streaming toward it as well.
    I can't describe the pressure as we circled the old house. I, as the only gunner, was all that stood between good, decent people and a horrible death. With shaking hands, I put the scope on the first moving target. He was shambling along, blank stare, half naked and blood on his jowls. I squeezed the trigger and put him down. There was no time for gloating. I saw normal humans sprinting toward the house and zombies approaching from all directions.
    Hey, everyone. Just thought I would immerse myself in the game a bit. I bought this game for  a mere 99 cents and it is fun. As you level up and get more accurate weapons you become a dangerous man. It is clear that the zombies chose the wrong farmhouse.
    There are automatic guns, on tripods, which surround the house. If you shoot the guns, they start blowing zombies away automatically, which lightens your load a bit. If the zombies clump up, take out several at once with a rocket. Shooting crates yields extra ammo.
    The same company has a very similar game called Steel Rain. I read a review on the app store that indicated that Steel Rain was just like Zombie Sniper except that it had more screens and chapters. It is also 99 cents.
    For the money, this is a fun action game and I think I'll buy Steel Rain also.
    Have a good evening. I'm CE Wills.

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...
