Romney 5 is alive!!!

For those of you whom have never seen the film "Short Circuit" and are wondering what in the hell I'm talking about, the main character in the film - a robot named Johnny 5 - is known for saying, "Johnny 5 is alive!" as well as, "Need input! More input!"

Now that we've established that, the Republican Party is going to try and establish the image that their leader for this upcoming election - Mitt Romney - is a warm fellow. While it seems a decent percentage of Republicans believe President Obama is not a "real" American, a decent percentage of both parties seem to believe that Romney is not human. So, it appears as if at the Republican National Convention, the party will attempt to prove this - especially Mitt's own wife, Ann.

She will likely start her speech by showing a picture of the family driving cross country, going on a vacation of sorts. The kids will be in the back of the car, she'll be in the passenger seat, Mitt will be in the driver's seat and on the roof will be the family dog. Video clips will then be displayed of Romney flip-flopping on issues such as: Abortion, global warming, gay rights, gun control , healthcare reform and his wife, Ann. The screen will then show Romney pointing and laughing, as Donald Trump's voice can be heard saying, "You're fired." The video will close with, "Come on. Could a robot be this big of an a**hole? Vote Romney 2012." The before-mentioned robot from "Short Circuit" would end the with the line, "Romney 5 is alive!"

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...

Mentioned on Crooks and Liars and Hinterland Gazette!

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 ...
