Zombie Shirts, Recliners and Mercenary Ops

    Hey, everyone. With great power comes great responsibility. Uncle Ben says that all the time. As the foremost zombie killer in the South, I have to keep the zombie hordes at bay. Someone gave me a shirt for Christmas, in recognition of my skills. (Shown above.) I also received an I-Tunes gift card, so I combined the two. I put on my new shirt and bought some zombie games and went on a campaign to remove the zombie menace from a creepy mansion. With my stash of I-Tunes cash, I splurged on new weaponry and commenced harsh retribution on the undead. I am glad my new shirt is black because these flowers from outer space were spitting green slime at me. They also were dropping huge spiders that blew apart when I blasted them. A messy job.
     Luckily, earlier in the day, we had taken down the Christmas tree and put my recliner back in it's hole. Exhausted by zombie battling, I felt obligated to recline and take a nap, ensuring that the chair still worked properly.
    In other news, I bought an app that is really a book, or a book that is sold as an app. I am speaking of the Dr. Seuss books that are on sale for 99 cents. As you know, Dr. Seuss books are cool as a moose. I bought Green Eggs and Ham. I streamed it to my 60 inch TV via Apple TV. There is a choice in the app where you can have the book read to you or you can read it yourself. I let it do the page movement and reading on the TV and really enjoyed it. Each word lights up as it is read so that a youngster can learn to read. If you tap the I-Pad, it will tell you what that object is. If you tap the boy(?), it will tell you that he is "Sam I Am", for instance. You will quickly learn that you can eat the aforementioned eggs with a fox, or you can eat them in a box.
      Since we rarely have children around the place, it is farfetched to say that I am buying these books for someone else. So, hey, I'll just admit that I am buying them for exploring the tech abilities of my I-Pad. Right. They are a great bargain. Remember, they are in the app store, not I-Books. I guess you could get the regular book from I-Books...
    Back to this Mercenary Ops game I mentioned. I wish it had a few more save points. One place I was stuck for a while. I had to accumulate 13 med packs and 'heal myself' 13 times to get through that chapter. It was rough in that creepy cellar! Once I was getting slashed and there was nothing left alive in front of me. I looked at my feet and a zombie had crawled up to me and was chomping on my lower extremities. I had to admire his grit, if not his manners. I quickly rendered the coup de grace to his skanky behindus.
      Well, I knew that you would be curious what I had done with my Christmas day, so now you know. I may post again, later in the day, so check back if you get bored.
     From the deep south, on a foggy, dripping, cold day, this is 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...

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...
