I Can't Abide a Goat Thief

     If there's one thing I can't stand, it's a goat thief. That's why three of my friends and I were involved in a battle in a remote desert village.
    These four dudes had stolen our goat and we were going to make them pay. We had an expert tracker. We knew we could find the goat. In fact, you might say that we had a GPS device installed on him. Note the upper right of the picture above.
    The village was less than sterile. You could hear the flies buzzing. But then, what can you expect from goat thieves? We cornered the varmints and I myself shot the goat-napper. Was the goat glad to see me? No, not so much. It is a fickle, fun-loving goat and will ride on anyone's back. If a man is shot out from under it, the goat merely goes on its merry way, heedless of the blood spilled on its behalf.
    Of course I am playing Trigger Fist in the barbaric Goat mode. It is hectic and intense. The shooters are going nuts in this one. If the arrow in the upper right is white, it means that neither team has control of the four-footed rascal. If the arrow turns green, the green team has it etc.
    I have also been playing King of the Hill mode. In this mode, there is a certain section of the map which has a big crown floating in the air. If you kill all the red team that is holding the area, the crown turns green. You win if you hold the crown for 90 seconds (cumulative). I remember that kids used to stand on top of a hill and throw others down the grade. If you could hold the hilltop, you were the king of the hill. This game is similar and it is fast paced and action packed.
    I hope you got this game while it was free.
    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 ...

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...

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...
