De-Animator, an addictive online game based on the writings of H.P. Lovecraft.   Your goal is to stop the zombies as they arise and go forth from the graveyard armed only with a six-shooter.  I got to stage 11 in my first serious attempt to play this game...not bad for a girl facing off against zombies. Then again, I've got lots of real life practice...

Hat Tip to Benji over at Barnyard BBS for getting me hooked on this game.

Polar's Debut

I'd like to introduce you to the newest member of our family  - Polar.  He is pictured above resting after a long day at the Chester County Victory Rally.

Polar is a greyhound rescue from NGAP, an organization that works tirelessly to rehome racing greyhounds and to stop the cruel practices of dog racing. A 'sport' glamorized in Matt Damon's breakout movie "Good Will Hunting'.

He is two years old and had come to the end of his racing career.  Without the intervention of NGAP,  Polar would most likely have been hung, electrocuted or left to starve to death.  Bullets and lethal drugs are an expensive option in euthanizing a large numbers of dogs.  Fortunately this will not be the fate of Polar, he will have a livetime of love in his forever home. 

 

Root Beer Testimonial

Things you encounter at protest/rally's:

A photographer swaggered into the Chester County Courthouse rally on Saturday proclaiming Virgil's Root Beer to be the best rootbeer on earth. 

"The best?"  I replied. 

He took a swig of this proported nectar of the gods then carefully placed it on the wall next to me.

"Yep", he replied.

Hmmm, a glowing endorsement, indeed.  Not one to blindly accept whatever I'm told,  I looked into what makes this root beer superior to all others.  The website for Virgil's Root Beer is overflowing with praise of this product:

Think of Virgil's as a gourmet root beer. We're what Ben and Jerry's is to ice cream, what Dom Perignon is to champagne. We're a micro-brewed root beer made with all-natural ingredients. We use herbs imported from around the world and unbleached pure cane sugar. Virgil's is a 100% natural root beer made with no artificial ingredients or preservatives and has no caffeine! Virgil's is also gluten free!

A micro brewed Root Beer made with all natural ingredients.  Does this make it the 'best on Earth" or does the wandering photographer own stock in this product?  I believe I'll indulge in some Root Beer research before I render any opinion on Virgil's or any other root beer product.  Stay tuned for my Root Beer reviews....

One of the many benefits of Saturday's pro-victory rally, besides laughing at hapless University students, was to have the opportunity to meet Don Springer.   He is Vietnam Veteran,  a member of PGR ( Patriot Guard Riders) and one hell of a photographer.
