So here is my goal by next year for the piano by my favorite Ukranian Piano Goddess (who writes her own sheet music by the way):



I might be able to pull off Madness too



When I can play this, I'll be hanging up the gun belt and going on tour...



Hope you folks enjoyed those.

Few a mission today with Colonel Santos (may be misspelled) I have flown with him many times. I much prefer him to be blue. In today's game he was 12-0, I was like 9-6. Anyway, he asked about joining Momzilla.

From what I have observed, I would definitely recommend him.

OK, that should have read "Flew".

Lawman, that chick can play dude. Thanks

Well, got one banner working. When I try to add the squad banner I get a 300 character limitation warning.

Hello all Mom's and hope you all are well :) Just alittle info if I may. I sent Mmiller26 a pm back in August and haven't herd anything back. I haven't seen him in game for some time and was just wondering if he's still around. He was a good guy and an Honorable Pilot I thought. We both enjoyed each other's time together whether it be with or against one another :woohoo: . If anyone talks to him, I ask that you tell him Harleyrider from the Misfit's, asked about him and hope he is well. Thanks

I've been in M.O.MZILLA for longer than I've been in most sub-squads, and it's been a great time.

However, this Friday night, I'll be exiting 'Zilla and moving on to Apocalypse M.O.M. I believe I have only a couple squadlets remaining to test run. Just Apocalypse and Dawn Of, if I remember correctly.

I'll be changing my name again, maybe something loosely based off the name of a pilot M.O.M isn't overly fond of, or an "inside-joke" twist on a pop-culture reference. If I don't get accepted, I'll wait, switch back to Mac, and retry.

See ya on the other side!

P.s. I've been making sure to click on the M.O.M thread several times a day, just to contribute to Page Views, because... Ya know...

I haven't touched the app in a couple weeks yet I see a few chumpettes still have Cricket on the brain.

I am awesome and if you don't idolize me you are a ding-a-ling. That's a fact. I've done extensive research.

Miss you, M.O.M. Life is getting in the way of flying. Got a second job and ended my relationship. God, I missed chasing tail. Misplaced my tablet charger during my move, too. Back to my old stomping grounds.. 9 and Ryan. Wanna play some dice? Meet me behind the Chester Fried at 1 A.M.

We are safe until Sunday! I stumbled on a good cheap apocalypse book series called Slow Burn. The first one was free on Kindle. I read the first 5 for about $5. Easy reads.

I'll check it out, Slow Burn. I don't read much, but I've listened to 1000s of audio versions over 100,000s of commuting miles.

I have a serious apocalypse fetish. Any zombie/contagion/nuclear flic or book do not stand a chance. One of my all time favorite movies is The Postman, with Kevin Costner. Awful movie really. Terrible dialog. Although greatly varied, even the backdrop scenery and sets were mediocre. Still can't change the channel if it's on. I own it in VHS, DVD and Blu Ray. A close second and equally abysmal movie is Waterworld, also with Costner. Every zombie movie out there is also game. You hear they're doing a sequel to Zombieland? I'm actually looking forward to it. It's sick! Sick I tell ya! Can't help myself.

On another note... MsGuided? Wtf!? Anyone else seen the complete 180? He/she's a practically a M.O.M fan boy now? Flew in a game with her last night. We were outnumbered 6:2 most of the game. She was ripping it up, on the top of the leader board most of the game and actually chatty and pleasant. She's tuf. I say we keep an eye this one, get a feel for the level of phsycosis and snatch her up before another squad does. She'll be a good hand.

My dear MOMrades,

I have reached step 27 of the "Road to MORAF" program. I have been told that the last four steps are by far the most difficult, and I am prepared for another solid 10 months of work to be put in before I reach the goal. For the moment, though, that matters not. My goal is solely to achieve the 200,000 points necessary to complete level step 27 of said mission, and move on to step 28. (Hey, it's a big deal to me, okay?)

Congrats on the banner, Gaw. You earned it.

I haven't really gotten into the Walking Dead, Tx. I loved the game, though.

Parrot, I think MsGuided has a crush on you. I would too, if there wasn't Santa.

Do yourself a favor and DVR the Walking Dead marathon that will most likely precede Season 5 Sunday night. It is easily the best show on TV. People laugh at me when I say that because the whole zombie premise lowers the show. OK fine, zombies are stupid. Ignoring the zombies, we jump into a drama of societal collapse, man's inhumanity to man, a struggle for decency, true moral dilemma (Carol and the girls for those who watch), and best of all a show that is unafraid to kill your favorite characters. If you don't DVR the marathon, I think season 1-4 is on Netflix!

Mac doesn't have a DVR, or cable TV. I know, absolutely primitive.

Mac is, however, modern enough to have Netflix, and will possibly check the show out when he's done with the games and shows he's working on watching now. I'm looking forward to The Flash immensely, having been a fan of Arrow since season 1.

At this point, The Walking Dead is why I have cable. Used to be sports, but I really hate the personalities of the owners and players in sports now...

I love sports. They're the entirety of why I own an antenna at all. I don't watch a lot of shows not on Netflix or hulu. I'm an obsessive fan of the Green Bay Packers in particular. Baseball bores me, hockey bores me, soccer bores me, Nascar bores me... You get the point. NBA and NFL are my jam. But mostly NFL.

I'm also binging on Minecraft. It's becoming a dangerous addiction. I started playing Survival mode a couple weeks ago, and I'm on my third mansion, I'm level 112, and I've sucked two mines dry. Also, there's this game called "Dogfight", see...

Tx, I'm with you buddy. TWD is my favorite show in a long time. Despite the zombie deal. I think it a fair representation of the way societies would behave in an apocalyptic era.

You mentioned Carol. The development of her character is one of my favorite things about the show. Her journey from where she started to "Carol and the girls" episode is stellar. Daryl is another transformation that's got me hooked.

The choices being made, the situations that force those decision and the evaluation of ends and means are spellbinding. Not to mention, believable.

The cinematogphy is well above average, as well. The sets and scenery are as much a character of the show as any actor. They're elaborate, yet simple, and still believable.

My only complaint is the amount of orinance and ammunition on hand. If they're going to have a seemingly endless supply, they should at least show them scavenging and collecting them like they do medicine and food.


Believable. That's what has hooked me. (Well except for the zombie part).

Gary, what you've mentioned is exactly what got me hooked on the TWD game. Aside from the seemingly endless supply of ammo, the situations, decisions, and characters interaction is harrowing.

The game follows the story of Lee Everette, a convicted felon on his way to a Georgia prison when the cop car he's in crashes. After shooting the zombie cop that attacks him when he regains consciousness, he sets out into a nearby town, only to find it nearly deserted and full of zombies. When he finds a girl names Clementine whose parents were killed, he decides to protect her.

The goal of Season 1 of the game is to survive and protect Clementine until you reach Savanna, from where you'll take a boat up the coast to escape the apocalypse. Your heart gets broken again and again along the way, and it ends when,
Warning: Spoiler!


I found it one of the best games I've ever played. It's a choice-and-consequence sort of a game, so there isn't a ton of action, but nonetheless, it's downright powerful.

I'll try to get into the show. I'm not sure when I'll be able to, though.

Have we talked about this? I, too, am a fan of Arrow. More specifically a very devoted fan of Felicity Smoak.


Emily Bett Rickards makes my arrow quiver. (See what I did there?)

I came at the show with every expectation that it'd blow. Green Arrow has never been the easiest DC character to capture in a non-comic medium. I was pleasantly stunned to find that this treatment knocks it outta the park, he's rarely been this good even in the best of the comic books. It has everything; big budget feature film caliber production values and action scenes, better than feature film character development, believable personal drama, and...Felicity Smoak. Not necessarily in order of importance.

Hello to the M.O.Mdom. I was perusing the forum (or thread trolling, whichever tickles your fancy) and noticed that this topic intrigued me so I was hoping to add something in the way of substance or thought (Mr. Wiggins may prefer to give me the finger and a classic get off my lawn yell), but anyhow here goes:

Mac, you should play all of the games made by Tell-Tale. If you liked TWD as a point-and-click, you'll love the rest of their games as well. I highly recommend them.

To everyone on television series, I enjoy TWD, but often find myself gripped with Sons of Anarchy and, when it was an active series, Breaking Bad. I would highly recommend both series as I have found them to both be praiseworthy and delightful in different ways. Most should have the ability to Netflix them or find them through some Avenue or another.

Anyways, good to see you guys around. I'm not in the air much these days, but it is always a pleasure to see you there (blue preferred over red).

Well Nick, first off, I would never give you the finger for expressing an opinion on a matter of artistic preference. Particularly when it's an opinion I share! Breaking Bad was one of television's finest hours.

I follow Sons of Anarchy, too, but for different reasons; whatever it is that makes something work for you, SoA does the opposite for me! I watch every episode with a kind of rubbernecking fascination. Being a drooling Shakespearean I was intrigued by the premise of Hamlet transferred to the Hell's Angels. But I can't get past the ham-fisted writing. A motorcycle gang dedicated to keeping its Mayberry-esque little town safe...by slaughtering people at a rate that makes Darfur look like a quilting bee. I'd forgive it that conceit if not for the hilariously corny dialog. And it should be called Hugs of Anarchy; I keep meaning to pull a search to see if there's already a drinking game where you do a shot every time a biker hugs another biker. Everyone would be in the bag by the second commercial break. Or every time someone says, "whole"; "Are we whole?" "The MC is coming out of this whole." "If we go to war nobody walks away whole." I'm sticking to the finish just to see as many characters as possible dead.

Have you tried Mad Men? It, Silicon Valley, Boardwalk Empire, Game of Thrones and Masters of Sex are as good as TV gets. This from someone who almost never watches TV! I'd almost always rather re-watch Twin Peaks...
