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...

Meanwhile, approximately 25% either don't feel this is acceptable or aren't sure about the matter.

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...
