Angry Birds isn't a free game.

Yes it is. As is the holiday edition. has been for several weeks now.

Ah, I see it now. They make a second game called Angry Birds Free, as well as the holiday version. But those aren't the same game as Angry Birds, which costs $.99... and of which I'm #35,000 or so out of 6 million players.

Ask Coach about his rankings.

The Free Angry Birds app (regardless of how it differs from the pay version) was the top app in the free store. This kid has dethroned it. The version you are referencing isnt relevant, unless I am missing something.

Am I the only one not playing angry birds? I am not a huge fan of paying for game apps, although I have done it here and there. I downloaded cut the rope (free version) but got bored after a few days. never play it anymore.

I have a new favorite iPad app: Google.

Yes, there is a Google app. All it really does is look stuff up using a Chrome browser. The kicker is that it has a voice search mode similar to what you get with the Android Voice Search (I am assuming they have the same thing on the iPhone platform) and it is unbelievably fast. It starts listening immediately and a second or so after you finish speaking it brings up the result and it is rarely wrong. It makes googling on the iPad a real pleasure. Free.

I had to stop playing Angry Birds. It was wasting more of my life than CUF, if that seems even possible.

My schedule just freed up considerably as last night <drum roll> I completed the total destruction of all Angry Birds levels, including the holiday editions. And for Christmas, my daughter's family presented me with this highly cherished hoodie.

All 3 stars?

Level 5 shows me that there are still 2 screens coming that aren't complete. Same for you?

Have you found all the gold eggs?

Yup, three stars on everything. A couple levels had me quite vexed, but last night my Yellow Bird prowess was Jimmeresque. And yes, I'm awaiting two more screens of Ham 'Em High. Meanwhile, I'm actually performing billable work.

Have you found all the gold eggs?

Good question. I have eight numbered eggs, plus three unnumbered (these feature various buttons one can push for noises, etc.) on level 1, and a single unnumbered egg on level 2. I suspect I'm missing some, and perhaps a lot.

BTW, the bonus round (level 4) on Trick or Treat features a single blue bird, but with one shot you can rack up over 175,000 points, a result that evoked such a visceral response from me that Mrs. PAC inquired from the next room if I was viewing porn. "Not at the moment, honey!"

Grasshoppa.....

I need your cell number. I have all but 1 level on level 1 3 stars, but I can't figure it out.

My wife and kids think the only reason I want an iPhone is so I have my own copy of Angry Birds.

They are partially right.

There are two pages of golden eggs and all total as of right now, there are 18 on the main game.
