More Writing (mainly poetry) Reviews

Well, I joined a couple more social networking sites in recent days to further spread word about my writing and the comments/reviews have been pouring in (all but the last are poem):




"INsecurity Level Orange" -

"I sense a sadness in this, then in the end I feel hope come rushing in. Quite the wonderful read here."




"No Pain" -

"WOW, very powerful emotioins in this, sorry for the hurt, but your emotions flowed so nicely down the page."



"The Big Gamble" -

"Casino's in Vegas, casino love in the balance, what a combination and metaphor on love. Nicely expressed emotions."



"Just a Friend" -

"Ah, this is such a wonderful, sentimental piece. I really like this write. It's so warm and filled with compassion, nicely done."




"Break-up Operation (B.O.)"

"Ah, this one tugs on the heart. I like this - made me ponder a bit on love."






"Fantasyland" -


"It's pretty amusing."




"Beat" -





"I love the ambiguity of this piece. To me, the beginning refers to rebirth and the end speaks of heartbreak."






"Illiterate in Love," "The Re-Awakening" and "Everyone Except Her" -

"I enjoyed reading your poems. Some of them are really touching and you can relate to them."




"Girlfriend Application" -

"This is really funny..."



There were other positive comments, but pretty dull, such as, "It was good" or "It was pretty good" and that sort of thing.

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...

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 ...
