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 pussies.”


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...

The difference between "looking" and "checking out"

I may be way off with these numbers, but it's my approximation that at least 75% of individuals whom are involved in a serious relationship feel it's perfectly acceptable to "check out" members of the opposite sex they're not involved with. Meanwhile, approximately 25% either don't feel this is acceptable or aren't sure about the matter. I hadn't thought about this matter for a while, but since I've been dating a woman for about 8 months, the topic has been pondered about some. When reading or hearing others discuss this very issue, I often times hear comments similar to the following: "It's human nature to look." "There's nothing wrong with checking others out. I'm sure he/she does it too!" "It's fine to do it. Just don't tell your boyfriend/girlfriend about it or do it in front of them!" "It's natural to find people attractive." When observing the array of comments, I i...
