Almost done with my political satire manuscript

It feels like I haven't blogged in weeks (even though it's just been a few days). I do have a reason for that - I've been hard at work on my sixth book. I finished fact-checking and getting all 106 of my footnotes placed last night. I'll now be proofreading and editing it over the next day or two, then work on the cover and hopefully within the next week, I'll be completely finished with it and ready to spread the good word of it being available within a couple weeks. In any case, I'll try to blog some more before too terribly long, but they will be few and far between until I can get this book completely finished and ready for publication. I'm pretty excited. It's kind of a short read (cheaper in price then), but with the election just 5 months away and my buddy's political radio talk show only a couple months away, I felt the need to work on, finish and get this book out as soon as I possibly could. For politically-minded individuals (especially those who are infuriated with the radical right), I'm thinking many laughs are to be had. To be continued...

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...
