Gifts For Super heroes

   Hey, everyone. It being Christmas, I thought you might have a few Super-Heroes on your list. As a full service blog, I thought I'd share some of the things I have bought for my super-friends.
1) Spiderman- Anything. The guy has no luck at all.
2) Submariner- Deodorant. He smells like fish.
3) Superman- Kryptonite antidote.
4) Green Lantern- A matching green bracelet for that cool ring.
5) Iron Man- Pepper Potts, wrapped in a red ribbon. Just a red ribbon.
6) Batman- A dehumidifier for that drafty old Bat-cave.
7) Hulk- Clothes are always good. The dude is hard on clothes.
8) Flash- Shoes, obviously. Yellow Reeboks with wings on them. How is it that he doesn't have a shoe deal with Nike or someone?
9) Wonder Woman- Victoria's Secret, of course. I'd need her there with me to try on the stuff.
10) Black Widow- A whip, to go with all that black leather.
11) Thor- A new name. So he wouldn't sound like a muscle condition with a speech impediment.
12) Catwoman- Cream will do.
13) Mystique- She doesn't need a single, solitary thing. Wow. I envy Magneto.
14) Loki- New headgear. The horns leave a bad first impression. Can you imagine picking up your date for the prom, meeting the parents? They'd think you were evil, or something.
15) Doctor Octopus- Cooler shades.
16) Popeye the sailor man- A less skinny girlfriend... or spinach will do in a pinch. How about a can opener?
17) Porky Pig- Some sort of underpants, please. His pink butt is nauseating.
18) Odin- Energy drinks. The Odin sleep has to be a drag.
19) Volstag- Spa membership.
20) Storm- How about a ground fault protection strip for plug-ins? Or a raincoat? Umbrella? Wolverine?

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 ...

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...

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...
