Wars

My father is feeling better.
On Wednesday he finally went the the emergency room. They did a ton of test. He finally got checked in about ten pm. He spent the night.
It turn out he had a stomach blockage. When he was moving the heavy plants he somehow managed to have one of his hernias fold over his stomach and block his stomach. They decided to watch him over the night and then decide if they needed to operate.
However sometime during the night his stomach straitened itself out.
He came home Thursday and he seems happy to be home and have the cat bossing him around.
Yet another health war he has survived.

I bought Front lines Fuel Of War.
It is a single play first person shooter set in the near future. There is a world wide depression and a coalition of bad guys are hording all the oil so you must save the world.
The graphics and audio are very well done although there are some draw in problems.
The controls are very well laid out and easy to understand.
The battlefields are big and well designed. There always multiple solutions to any problem.
The one downside is there is no cover system. Even the system in Perfect Dark would have worked well here.

The political wars are in full force.
Barack Obama came to town and spoke for nearly an hour.
Hillery Clint has been here several times as well as husband and former president Bill Clinton.

The Republicans have seem to have forgotten about our little city. They all go on and on about how important the Texas vote is but none of the could be bothered to drop in and say hi. Extremely bad form.

On other wars it seems my doctor is running for congress. So if he wins I have to find a new doctor?

And finally Bill the cat has once again become embroiled in a war with another cat. Bill is scratched up but is doing well and is ruling the house with an iron paw.
