God's conversation with ESPN about Tim Tebow

Since I've found the Tim Tebow-hype to be so ridiculous, especially via ESPN, I thought I'd come up with a dialogue between ESPN and God, regarding who else but Tim Tebow.

God: "What do you come here for?"

ESPN: "To talk about Tim Tebow, sir."

God: "Okay. Go ahead."

ESPN: "Is it true that he's your son?"

God: "You're all my children. Although, I admit that I do like some of you more than others."

ESPN: "...and Tebow?"

God: "He's a fine young man with a good heart."

ESPN: "Is it true that you intervened in all of those comebacks the Broncos had this year?"

God: "No, what do you think I am?"

ESPN: "God... ...but what about the 316 yards he threw for against the Steelers in the playoffs? His favorite passage is John 3:16. That can't be a coincidence."

God: "What about the 60 yards he threw for against the Chiefs, completing just 6 of 22 passes? There was nothing godly about that. Ray Charles could throw better and he and I just played the piano together a couple days ago."

ESPN: "Well, is he the chosen one of the NFL?"

God: "Chosen? Chosen by who? Carrot Top?"

ESPN: "You."

God: "If he's the chosen one of the NFL, I must not be very bright. If that were the case, you might as well call me Forrest Gump."

ESPN: "Mr. Gump..."

God: "Very funny. I was kidding. No, he's not the chosen one. That would be Neo. Haven't you seen 'The Matrix'?"

ESPN: "No actually. I..."

God: "What planet are you from?"

ESPN: "I'll be sure to check that out..."

God: "You do that. There's the red pill and blue pill. I may have to add another for you - the crazy pill."

ESPN: "...okay...so what do you think about Tebowing?"

God: "That's funny. He and his like don't seem to care much for gays, but he sure enjoys being on his knees quite a bit, doesn't he?"

ESPN: "So, you have a problem with this?"

God: "I don't care. It's his decision. He just may want to cut down on that or people may start talking. Others may start getting excited...you know...Elton John, George Michael, Ricky Martin, this Craig kid in Ohio..."

ESPN: "Craig kid?"

God: "Yeah, he knows who I'm talking about. One word - flaming!"

ESPN: "So, will Tim Tebow have continued success?"

God: "Continued success? At what?"

ESPN: "Football, of course..."

God: "Since when did finishing last or near last in every passing category equal success for a NFL quarterback?"

ESPN: "But he wins games..."

God: "Are you questioning God?"

ESPN: "But, it's Tim Tebow..."

God: "Look, if he's going to have success at anything, it will either be in baseball or as a human windmill."

ESPN: "What?"

God: "With a windup like his, he could be a natural pitcher or he could help out with wind energy and be a human windmill. My bet is on the latter."

ESPN: "You're kidding..."

God: "No. I'm dead serious. Tim Tebow - human windmill. Mark it. It will happen on March 16th (3/16) of next year."

ESPN: "What about Tebowmania?"

God: "What about it?"

ESPN: "Do you feel it? I know we all do over at ESPN."

God: "Yeah, I know. You really need to stop it, as Mike Ditka would say."

ESPN: "What? Why?"

God: "Because it makes you look like you're permanently Tebowing right in front of Tebow himself, if you catch my drift..."

ESPN: "No. What do you mean?"

God: "Just keep at it and you'll find out for yourself, as will Tim ...and the likes of Elton John, George Michael, Ricky Martin and Craig are going to be very excited."

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...
