The Wall of Air and the Chainsaw Nomes


    Hey, everyone. You guys go to bed late, don't you? I have been up late myself, still playing the new game called March On Oz. I thought I'd toss in a few screen shots to show you the color and graphics.
     For a hillbilly like me, it is nice to get out and stroll around a cool place like Oz. I have made some new friends. For instance, I have a friend that is a huge Jack-o-lantern. The trick is that if you tap on him when he is around your enemies, he explodes ice and snow all over them, which cramps their style. His brother pumpkin explodes with fire, which wreaks havoc in the ranks of the Nomes.
     Before, I had a Fairy as a guide. Now I have an exotic queen and her daughters. They appreciate my service to Oz so much that they have given me a magic ability to call forth a "Wall of Air". To me it looks like a big granite rock with eyes, but it appears to be an effective defense system. He talks also.
     Alas, I have new enemies as well. To whit, there are these Nomes which have arms, but the arms are chain-saws. When they come up against the ranks of my arrayed forces, the sparks fly like crazy.
    This game has a whole book of instructions and hints, as well as history. I recently read some things that helped me and would be classified as a spoiler. One thing was the use of formations when you put your guys in an array. You have to have plenty of cake produced so that there will be 'currency' to buy more soldiers. So you place 4 bakers in a square and they produce a far greater volume of cake. This secret alone helped me past a level where I was stuck. I also learned that it is better to call forth your monkeys before the enemies reach the rear area of your army. Also, if Cayke, your fairy, is blasted, you must replace her immediately, or right now, whichever comes first. Ha, ha. This lady is a cake producer extraordinaire.
     I got a free game called Run and Gun last night. It is fun, for an endless runner. In describing its game play I would say that you run and you shoot goblins. The 'steering' is by tilting the screen. You must swipe to slide under things and swipe up to jump obstacles. It is okay, and free at the moment, I think.
     I got another freebie called Alien Zone. It is a very reasonable 'free' at the moment. I haven't even opened it yet due to obligations in Oz. Ha, ha.
    Cute Kill is another game I haven't opened, as is one called Abyss: The Wraiths of Eden. The latter is a Hidden Object, mystery style of game. I don't know why I got it, really, because I don't normally play those, but the darn graphics looked so beautiful, I couldn't resist. Looks like I may be burning the midnight oil in gameland tonight. Remember, for a dollar, Oz is very cool. Try it!

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...
