A Special Thanksgiving Message To You All


Hello everyone, well it is that time of year once again, Thanksgiving. 

A time where by all Americans gather with family & friends to give thanks for all they have in life. 

A time where a lost family member can finally come home again and for one day leave all the troubles & disagreements behind them and just be a family once again. 

A time where friends who have no one family left in their lives can come over and for that one special day give thanks because they see they do have a family and they are loved. 

A time for us to reflect on all we have to be thankful for and to pray for the less fortunate in the world.

A time to sit back with loved ones and remember all the loved ones in their lives who are no longer with them and how thankful they were to have been part of their lives.

But most importantly it marks the beginning of the holiday season a season of love and hope for all not just us Americans but the world as a whole. A time where we all as human beings open up our hearts for all, we all are a little more tolerant, a little more forgiving, we are more charitable to the less fortunate and we seem to just become better human beings during this time of year and for that I give thanks. 

Yes there are some of us who do not do well during this time of year, yes there are some who feel they have nothing to be thankful for and yes there are some of us who feel there is nothing left for them in this great world of ours. To you I say " I am here for you !!!" 

I may not be able to help you financially as I am not wealthy, I may not be able to get you a job if you are unemployed but I can and will bring you into my family circle of friends in life and try to be there for you when you need a friend and shoulder to lean on. I also know I am not the only in this world who feels this way there are millions of us out there all you have to do is open your heart and we will find you. So do not despair we are here for you and for that you can give thanks. 

I want to wish you all a blessed Thanksgiving and holiday season on behalf of my family. And I now leave you with this cute little poem I found on the internet it has no author so I cant thank them personally but whoever you are thank you. 


May your stuffing be tasty
May your turkey plump,
May your potatoes and gravy
Have nary a lump.
May your yams be delicious
And your pies take the prize,
And may your Thanksgiving dinner
Stay off your thighs!


God Bless you all,

John & Joanne Sweeney

Review of The Holiday Missions & Serial Assassins

Well here we go again the new Holiday Missions & Serial Assassins are here.  


To be honest I think the Holiday Missions are a waste of time. The Holiday Traffic Mission loot items aren't that good (only 2 decent items A Roaring 20's Car 32 attack/ 62 defense & a Hippopotamus  63 attack/ 46 defense)


Then watch for the Stuff The Bird Mission and you will get a rusty old knife called Tetanus 39 attack/63 defense. Woo Hoo. 


So if you must do these missions then go for it, especially if you still need the achievements that would be the only reason I would be doing them. 


Here are the loot items you can get so you be the judge if this is what you want to waste your energy & stamina on.



As for the Serial Assassins event going on well that is just like the Uniform Event. You collect the Dead Bee's then wait for the Golden Tigers to open up, then you collect them, then wait for the Dried Clover's to open and then collect them.



These are much better items and the good thing is that once the final item opens up and you finish the event then you can do this event 2 more times and collect the loot items again. So not so bad. Plus you get a really good Grand Prize Weapon " Gun Powdered Milk 134 attack/ 105 defense. ( Weird Name I know, I guess the developers were in the Poker Room again with the water pipe. )

The Boss Fight We Really Want From Mafia Wars



New bosses, new fights, new rewards - Get ready for the
"Takeover At Zynga" fight event!


Players will be taking on 4 Zynga bosses with the help of their
mafia in order to earn the "Codes To Fix The Game". Each

additional reward of not being Zynga'd!


Make sure you have your strongest gear and weapons in tow - 
each Zynga boss fight will become increasingly tougher as you
make your way through the levels & watch out for the nerfs 
and rollbacks along the way. Only after you defeat one Zynga
boss will you be able to move on to the next. When you play, 
you'll be rewarded for defeating each Zynga boss and earn 
codes to fix glitches along the way, as well as gain well-
deserved bragging rights.

Notice To All Veteran Here In The United States



Veteran Day is upon us once again. It is a time we all take to remember the great sacrifices that our current Veterans as well as all the past war veterans have made to keep us safe in the world. These sacrifices were not just by them by by their entire family. For this ALL Americans salute you  and pray for you all. 


The sacrifices the Veteran's and their families have made since the inception of our great country can never properly be repaid or truly even be comprehended. Their selfless acts of heroism can never be measured and should never be forgotten. What they have gone through for all of us can never be repaid. 


Below is a small list of some things we can do for you and your families. As I said we can never fully repay you all for your sacrifices you have made for us but we hope you will help your self to these offers.


You have put yourselves in harms way more times than we will ever know. If not for you the VETERAN'S of this fine country we would not be enjoying all the freedoms we have right now. Americans very easily forget that Freedom isn't Free & that someone has to pay for it, someone has to fight for it and unfortunately sometimes someone has to die to preserve it. Sometimes we lose site of this and for this I apologize.  


I just want to say on behalf of this great country & the American people God Bless You All and God Bless Your Families. The sacrifices you have made and continue to make for us all will never be forgotten. You are all heroes in our eyes and we truly appreciate all that you have done for us throughout history and going forward. God Speed my friends we are always here for you & Thank You !!!
