The Midnight Snack Gone Awry

    Hey, everyone. As a serious gamer, I maintain a strict training regimen, waiting for the Olympic Games to adopt contests for Shadowgun. Therefore, I only eat low calorie stuff. Tonight I had a midnight snack that you might find interesting. I wanted some champagne. I filled a large glass with the bubbly. Then I saw fresh strawberries. I cut several of them up and piled a bunch of whipped cream on them. So far, so good.
    As everyone knows, a snack plate must have widely divergent flavors to be effective, so I got a boiled egg and put mustard on it. Then I reasoned that some cheddar cheese would go well with the egg. Of course, saltine crackers are a must with the egg and cheese. I noticed some of those miniature candies in the basket. Hmmmmm... I decided to have a Mounds (love coconut with champagne) and a Reeses peanut butter cup. Lest I be accused of being smart, I added a Hershey's with toffee and almonds.
     As I was walking to my recliner, I stopped by the pantry and noticed some new chips called Lay's BLT flavored chips. They actually have this dust on them which simulates a bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich. When I poured a modest quantity of them on my plate, I decided that they deserved some french onion dip.
    Finally, I was ready for my snack. I started to wake my wife and show her my work of art, but reason prevailed and I began to eat. It was sooooo good. Then I thought, "I must share this secret recipe with my friends on the blog, as they may be hungry for something exotic".
     When you combine all this with the Philly Steak sandwich and hot wings I had for lunch, well, my gas should be exquisite tomorrow. Good night all, from the land of the midnight sun snack.

Dr. Simon's Exoskeleton (Shadowgun)

    Hey, everyone. Nice to be back with you after a tough, hectic week. We have had some snow, sleet, fog, drizzle, torrential rain and flooding this week.      I'd like to talk, yet again, about Shadowgun , the shooter game for I-Padster. I was much further along than what I thought when I posted about some of the battles yet to be faced for those of you who had just killed the Driller. The fact is that I am on the last level. This level has Dr. Simon, the resident evil nutcase, inhabiting a monstrous, powerful robot. His brain resides in a bubble on top, much like a cherry on a hot fudge Sunday. (Yes, I am still on my eating binge) It is a tremendous fight because you not only have to kill this huge semi-person, but there are a bunch of mutant guards, flying drones etc. to deal with at the same time. I had played the darn level about thirty times and decided to check out someone else's battle. So I went to You-Tube and typed in, Dr. Simon Exoskelet...

To Kill A Lobster (Shadowgun)

    Hey, everyone. I had not planned on posting tonight but I have to make something right. I gave Shadowgun a good review last night but I didn't do it justice. Tonight I got past the vicious Cyber Lobster and went on to play a lot more. This is a terrific game! Last night I would have rated it 4 stars out of 5. Tonight I give it 5 stars out of 5. By the way, here's a spoiler alert. If you don't want to know how to kill the lobster, don't read any further. I say this because I had several people come to the blog that were looking for the silver bullet ( figure of speech from old Dracula movies, not literal weapon for lobster) to kill this behemoth.      When the monster appears, he starts firing missiles at you out of his mechanical mouth. Don't run and hide behind a barrier. Get close to him and run back and forth, dodging missiles until you can blast the lime colored ball of light that appears periodically over his head. I suspect that this is hi...

Shadowgun: Killing The Windbreaker

    Hey, everyone. I thought it might be a good time for a bit of an update on the riveting game called Shadowgun. Consider this your spoiler alert and tune out if you want to.     Once you get past the dreaded Driller, things get better but you are certainly not out of the woods. You will want to make sure you keep a full clip in your gun as you stroll through the realm of the evil and crazy Dr. Simon. But hey, you're John Slade, the Shadowgun, and wherever you set your foot is the place to which your authority extends.      I love the way that some of the barriers disintegrate under the impact of bullets. I didn't learn this at my mother's knee but I darn sure know it now. I have learned that there are certain places it is good to plan on using the rocket launcher. Keep your stock of those filled. There are these transporter guys who are aggressive punks. The only way they respect you is if you kill them, so that's the way I roll. As...
