Halo Reach

I've almost crossed the line between frequently playing and marathon playing when it comes to Halo; Reach. For those who don't know what it is, I'll explain. This game predates Halo; on the planet Reach, the U.N.S.C.'s last planet that has a chance at withstanding a covenant assault, and protecting earth. The protagonist is noble-6, the sixth member of noble team. From the beginning you know one thing for certain, this planet is gonna blow up, as we know from previous halo games. Anyway, your first mission is simple; See why Sword base is sending a distress signal, easy, right? Yup, it is till the covenant show up, and when the only survivor from Sword base is a young woman, and Dr. Halsey doesn't have good news for you. But that's campaign, multi-player is awesome, Including dozens of game modes, but compensates with very few maps compared to Halo: 3. Anyway, great game, if you haven't already, play  this game!

Golden Silence; The Zeppelin Show

It was early morning, and I was half walking and half tripping down my cast-iron spiral staircase. I tripped due to the fact that each step was only ten inches wide. I didn't care how wide the steps were, because today was the zeppelin show, and I was going to show the world my submersible lighter-than-air aircraft. I planned on testing it today, and taking a passenger. But I needed breakfast first. I began to walk toward the kitchen. "I see you're awake. I've prepared pancakes and coffee, I believe you will be gone for the day." Said my youthful maid Juliet. "Yup! You got the place till I return from my voyage, whenever that is!" I wolfed down my pancake, chugged my coffee, and ran out the door. I had moved my airship to the fairgrounds last night, so I just ran down there, bumping into people as I went. I didn't really care who I nudged in my wild stampede, until I bumped in to a man carrying and playing a bass saxophone, he had a corpulent pug dog sitting on his top hat, carrying and playing a piccolo saxophone.
