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?
    From the author's green retreat, I'm CE Wills. Merry Christmas to all.

Shadowgun: Killing The Windbreaker

    Hey, everyone. I thought it might be a good time for a bit of an update on the riveting game called Shadowgun. Consider this your spoiler alert and tune out if you want to.     Once you get past the dreaded Driller, things get better but you are certainly not out of the woods. You will want to make sure you keep a full clip in your gun as you stroll through the realm of the evil and crazy Dr. Simon. But hey, you're John Slade, the Shadowgun, and wherever you set your foot is the place to which your authority extends.      I love the way that some of the barriers disintegrate under the impact of bullets. I didn't learn this at my mother's knee but I darn sure know it now. I have learned that there are certain places it is good to plan on using the rocket launcher. Keep your stock of those filled. There are these transporter guys who are aggressive punks. The only way they respect you is if you kill them, so that's the way I roll. As you know by now, their strategy

Shadowgun: Crushing The Driller On Level 4

      Hey, everyone. Let's talk about the game called Shadowgun, the I-Pad game with which I have a love-hate relationship. Most of you who made it past the evil Cyber Lobster are doubtless locked in a death struggle with the Driller at the end of level 4. At this point you have been in the cave for a long time. The Driller breaks through the rock wall and chases you through the tunnel as you try to shoot out the green lights which slows the Driller down. If you are slick enough to shoot out all the lights and emerge from the cave, a rolling door crashes on the Driller and crushes his aggravating carcass. I have tried and failed to beat the Driller at least 250 times. I hate the Driller to the heights and depths my soul can reach. I hate it like a plague. I hate it with intensity of feeling. I hate it like a rich man hates taxes. Excuse me, I got carried away.       We had a big dinner here at the green retreat and my friend Trevor was here today. He is my gaming consultant. I tol

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 vegetatio
