Game Review: Plumber Crack

    Hey, everyone. One of the most popular games on IOS right now is called Plumber Crack. Yes, you heard right. To say that this is a different kind of game is putting it mildly. Here's the recipe for this mildly disturbing walk on the wild side.
      You have an obese plumber to come over. He is wearing low-riders and working underneath your kitchen sink. There is an ice cube on the screen before you. You must flick the ice with your finger and send it flying down the plumber's pants. When you hit the bull's-eye the poor dude hits his head on the pipes and sees stars. Sometimes he reaches back to 'dig for gold' or merely pulls his pants up.
    As you hit the target, a meter fills up on the left side. Coins fall from the dude's pocket when he writhes about due to chills. Gathering the coins fills the meter. When you fill the meter, you are awarded 'Crack Bucks'. I am not kidding. With these rewards you can buy some very interesting things. Some are a bit disturbing. ( I say this in a joking way, I think).
     Okay, here it is. You can buy stuff to dress your plumber in. Things like a cheerleader outfit. Or a plaid skirt. Or a basketball uniform. I would like to get him a superhero costume but it costs 50 crack bucks. I only had three crack bucks so I bought my dude a butterfly tattoo. That disturbs me a little, that I did this. Because, 1) I actually thought it was funny and 2) I spent my three crack bucks and now I have to save more money to buy him the Elvis outfit.
    By the way, the game is free. There are 4 modes in this game. I normally play the 'Zen' mode but it still disturbs my tranquility. The game tells me occasionally that I am a sniper, by the way, so I have that going for me. Good to know that all those hours playing Modern Combat 3: Fallen Pants Nation were not wasted. Hey, another cute thing this game says is when you throw an ice cube high on the dude's back and it slides down. They call that a spinerider.
    On a related subject, I just went over to my game called Modern Combat 3 and it said that my copy of this game might have been obtained illegally. ???!! What the heck? I bought it from the app store last year and have had no problem with it until today. (Except getting stuck all the time.) I did do an update to it today...
    By the way, a friend sent me an e-mail concerning the I-Pad 3's battery. It seems some folks did a tear down on the new device. I'll provide the link below. http://arstechnica.com/apple/news/2012/03/ipad-3-teardown-my-god-its-full-of-lithium-ions.arshttp://arstechnica.com/apple/news/2012/03/ipad-3-teardown-my-god-its-full-of-lithium-ions.ars
   I'll probably blog once more this weekend. Hope you can check out the blog again. From the author's green retreat, I'm CE Wills.
P.S. The first use of the retina display for this I-Pad was used for the plumber with the butterfly tattoo. Hey, maybe I can write him into The Dan Tattoo. He could meet Mandy and they could compare body art...

The White Chicken Mystery

    The other night I happened to come home very late. It was the middle of the night and I was driving up a steep mountain road. Near the top I saw something white in my headlights. It was standing in the other lane, standing very still. It was a large white chicken. It was probably a rooster because I thought I could see his comb as I whizzed by at my customary pace. He never moved a muscle. This is weird, don't you think?      After a couple of days to consider this phenomenon, I have come up with some plausible answers for his bizarre behavior. 1. He was conflicted whether or not he should cross the road. 2. He was feeling cocky and decided to play chicken with the traffic. 3.He was being hen-pecked at home and had decided to end it all. 4. Someone had egged him on to do it. 5. He had just watched the movie Fantastic Four and decided to try to stop a truck the way that Ben Grimm did on the bridge. 6. He had driven himself crazy wondering if ...

Batman Lives In Washington, DC

    Hey, everyone. I just read an interesting article on Washington Post.Com by Mike Rosenwald. It was titled Who Is the Route 29 Batman? This is a true story about a guy that the cops pulled over. The guy was driving a black Lamborghini with Batman plates. There were yellow Batman symbols on the doors. They had a video from the police car that showed him being pulled over. He was wearing a Bat-suit which he said cost him $5000. His gig is that he visits sick children in area hospitals and hands out Bat-Toys and Bat-books to cheer the kids up.     His name is Lenny B. Robinson and he says that the 'B' stands for Batman. He is perfectly sane and is just a good dude trying to make a difference. He is a self-made millionaire and is currently having a duplicate of the Batmobile custom-made at a cost of $250,000.    It was a hoot, watching the cops having their pictures made with the Bat Guy. Someone asked him where Robin was and he said that the boy won...

Cake Is Better Than Swords

Hey, everyone. On Thanksgiving, we had a get-together here at The Author's Green Retreat. One lady brought a cake which I wanted to show you. It had the look of a Roman Coliseum about it. Inside it was just as decadent...and fun, as ancient Rome. When I cut it open, homemade marshmallow cream began to ooze out in several spots, running over the chocolate cake and peanut butter icing. It is best served warm so the cream is fluid. Very tasty. The same lady, and her children, are people who have played a lot of Skyrim. They gave me some pointers on the game because I am having problems with it. They taught me how to fast travel, and a ton of other things, but the main thing was the armor and clothing problem. This is a little embarrassing, but let me explain. Okay. For several weeks when I played, I would enter towns and everyone I met would comment on my nakedness. I would select a tunic and shoes, whatever, go back around people and they would say something about it. I guess I w...
