- Each year thousands of starry-eyed young actors take the courageous leap of faith and move to New York City or L.A. in search of stardom. This is the inspiring story of one such actress who would go from total obscurity to starring on Broadway after only a few years in NYC. Ultimately she would become a living legend and the television pioneer known as Carol Burnett. "Pipe Dream" is a passion project that took seven constantly-interrupted years to write, produce, film and edit. As a lifelong fan of Carol Burnett, I was curious as to how her road to fame came about. Once I began to research her backstory, I was inspired to learn that there wasn't any nepotism or easy road to stardom that got her to where she is today. Born into poverty and losing both parents early in their lives to alcohol-related illnesses, hers is a story of guts and determination to entertain people through song and laughter. I wanted to tell this story of those earlier years...and boy did we get lucky in the casting of Lisa Ferris as our "Carol".

- Meersham Bowles is discontented. The more he visited his friend, Benedict, and danced the children on his knee and fed them in their high chairs, the greater was his discontentment. The only solution was marriage, and as Bowles sank into the finely upholstered Turkish rocker in his bachelor apartments and inserted his jimmy pipe between his teeth, he decided to embark upon that uncertain sea of matrimony as soon as the opportunity presented itself. He was soon lost in reverie, and when one starts to dream and soliloquize as the result of a strong pipe, his soliloquies and reveries are unusually perverted and pronounced, and the effects are often greater than those produced by ether. Bowles' subconscious mind is working. He visits the home of his large and lovable sweetheart. She is sitting close to him on the sofa, and caresses him. She is too fat, and he always detested fat persons. He tries to escape, but Flossie's relatives are in a solid phalanx outside the door, armed to the teeth with muskets, revolvers and knives. Bowles has left his Damascus blade at home on the mantel-piece and cannot fight back. He tries another door and is the target for several cannon balls. He decides to marry Flossie, and a beautiful church wedding results. At the wedding feast, Bowles, perforce, eats his handful of victuals on the shelf. That is taken away from him for one of the visiting relatives who is half starved. The house is full of relatives. The delivery girls arrive with dresses for Mrs. Bowles, valued at hundreds of dollars. Bowles perspires with nervous excitement. It is bed time. Everything in the house, from the best feather bed to the dog kennel, is occupied by the grasping relatives. He looks into the bathtub. There is a man asleep there, and Bowles turns on the shower bath. He finally hauls the dog out of the dog house and crawls in and goes to sleep. Eventually the plenteous fruition of the connubial knot appears; Bowles has them from a few months up. He is left alone with them and throws a half loaf of bread at each for breakfast. After many other experiences of like nature, Bowles wakes up from his dream.

- Each level of this abstract puzzler challenges the player to set up a network of pipes to allow an unspecified substance known as 'flooz' to flow through as many of those as possible. The pieces are offered in random order, and there are seven different types - straight lines going horizontally or vertically, corners rotating in each of the four directions, and cross-over pieces which carry the flooz straight across horizontally and vertically. Each of these can be entered from either side. When the flooz hits a gap or a piece that the previous piece can't flow into, the pipe is finished. Before the flooz starts flowing from its randomly-selected starting position, the player has several seconds to start placing pieces. They can be put down anywhere. However, a situation that can often occur is there will be a long and complex piping arrangement set up, yet a gap somewhere remains to be filled. Players are able to replace a piece with another in the same square (to make it easier to flow the flooz that way), but for a slight scoring penalty. Bonuses are awarded for looping the flooz through both sides of at least 5 cross-over pieces or passing the flooz through every square on the screen. Later levels have some squares on the grid blocked off, a few gaps in the side-wall (allowing flooz to thread to the other side of the screen). After every four levels, there is a bonus game for points, in which the player can only place the pieces in the lowest open space in each column, similarly to the board game of "Connect 4".
