My Gold I-Phone 5S and Spelunking With Iron Man

   Hey, everyone in the Ethernet, and all the ships at sea. My buddy, Iron Man, needed my help today. It seems that there is a new update to Iron Man 3 and I decided to get it. The main reason is because the update had a new level or map in it. The new level is called Woodlands and I have included a screen shot above. The Metallic Avenger and I are flying over open fields, blistering the sky as we dodge silos and wind turbines. You also fly through forests. At one point we flew through the tunnel in a giant Sequoya or redwood, whatever.
    But the most fun was when we went spelunking. It started like this. My man, Tony, came to me and proposed that we hang together for the day. "Cool", I said, "but I once was in a cave with a friend and our flashlight went out. It was really scary and if we are going to do this, you're going to have to bribe me."
    "Bribe?" He asked indignantly. "With what?"
"You're the head of Stark Industries, you tell me." He thought for a minute.
"How about the new I-Phone 5S?"
"The gold colored one?" I asked eagerly. He laughed.
"Hey, not even I can get one of those. I'm rich, but I'm not omnipotent."
"Go on Ebay."
    He reluctantly agreed, because we're tight. So, yeah, we are tearing up the sky and flew under the big arm of a Caterpillar and blasted through all these enemies which I have described in a previous review. Sure, I was scared when we zoomed through the cave, dodging the stalactites and stalagmites. But I manned up because I wanted the new phone.
     By the way, before I forget, the other levels have a few changes also. You see some different things than before. For instance, there are huge cargo planes that come roaring overhead while you are zooming down the airstrip in Santa Monica. Really impressive. Then you take a side trip down the beach and dodge beach-related stuff. It was a nice, refreshing change after all the sameness of doing that level hundreds of times before.
    There are a few ads that have appeared, unfortunately, but, there are tournaments to play if you have a connection. I wish that they would be a bit more liberal with in-game cash and armors.
     If you want to play when you're not on-line just tap friends and then play.
    So, I know you're curious, did I get the rare breed, almost extinct, called Gold I-Phone 5s? Well, Tony explained it like this.
"Here's the deal, CE,... I don't exist. This guy named Stan Lee dreamed me up. Only a geek like you would ask me for anything. I am not even your imaginary friend. And, if I did exist, who do you think I am? Steve Jobs? Tim Cook? Wait a few months and get the darn phone."
    I was a bit crushed, but I decided to just get a new armor instead. Then I saw that I would have to grind a while to get the in-game cash necessary. I think I'll intentionally fly Iron Man into a giant redwood, and keep doing it until he comes across with my phone.
     From this creepy cave in the woods, this is CE Wills.
P.S. Coincidentally, Iron Man 3, the movie, just came out on DVD. Which reminds me...didn't that kid in Tennessee make Tony give him a bunch of cool stuff in exchange for his help? To me that sets a precedent and I expect the phone Muy Pronto.

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...
