Horatio Caine Fever

In my opinion, if there’s a best worst show on television, it’s CSI: Miami. This is for one main reason - David Caruso’s character, Horatio Caine. In fact, I typically only watch the show’s opening sequence. A body is discovered, Horatio looks the body over and has a brief discussion with Frank (detective). Frank makes an observation before Caine places on his magical sunglasses, utters a corny line and The Who’s “Won’t Get Fooled Again” starts to play. His one-liners are a reflection of Caine’s sunglasses (which I’m sure he wears at night, even in his sleep) - magical. I will now run off a few Horatio Caine-esque one-liners of my own. Be sure to have the before-mentioned song, “Won’t Get Fooled Again” playing while reading these. Also, if you have sunglasses, I suggest you wear them as well. Here we go…

Frank: “It looks like she’s dead.”

Horatio: “She is, Frank, and she always will be.”


Frank: “It looks like this guy was a professional.”

Horatio: “Yes, Frank. He looks to be about as professional ::long pause:: as your wife.”


Frank: “It looks like he was shot.”

Horatio: “Yeah and it’s the shot that killed him.”


Frank: “Around what time do you suppose this happened?”

Horatio: “It happened, Frank, around the time that he was killed.”


Frank: “To drown a woman in a kiddie pool like that, that’s just cold.”

Horatio: “Yes, Frank. Cold and wet.”


Frank: “To fire a rocket launcher at a janitor from 2 feet away, who would do such a thing?”

Horatio: “I don’t know, Frank, but whoever did, is our murderer.”


Frank: “Do you really think your son could have killed this garbageman?”

Horatio: “I don’t know, Frank, but something sure stinks.”


Frank: “A margarine knife? This man was killed with a margarine knife?”

Horatio: “It appears that way, Frank, but at least it’s not butter.”


Frank: “I think this was a suicide. What do you think?”

Horatio: “I think, Frank, ::pause:: that suicide is for pu*sies.”


Frank: “So, Senator Jakoff and Ms. Johnson were… and now they’re…”

Horatio: “That’s right, Frank. They did the deed and then had the deed done to them.”

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...

Mentioned on Crooks and Liars and Hinterland Gazette!

Face guarding is legal in college football and the NFL

I just wanted to remind fans and announcers especially, that face guarding is legal in both college football and the NFL. It all comes down to contact. So long as a defender doesn't make contact with an intended receiver, he doesn't have to turn around to play the ball. I can't tell you how many times every week I hear announcers talk about face guarding being a penalty. It's not. I even heard one announcer yesterday state, "If the defender doesn't turn around and play the ball, the ref will call pass interference every time." That's simply not true. Courtesy of referee Bill LeMonnier, he says this with regard to the rule at the college level (answered on 8/12/13): "NCAA rules on pass interference require the face guarding to have contact to be a foul. No contact, no foul by NCAA rules." In the NFL rule book, this is written:  "Actions that constitute defensive pass interference include but are not limited to: (a) Contact by a ...
