Far right-wing conspiracy site showcasing my book poking fun at the right-wing! How's that for ironic?

I regularly do research on my books to see if there's anything interesting that pops up and couldn't help but laugh hysterically at what appeared before my eyes today.

On what appears to be a far-right leaning site that isn't coy to debunked conspiracy theories, I found my most recent book - LOL at the GOP - along with a description of it being advertised on this site (belligerentpolitics.com).

Toward the top of the page are the words "Barack Obama Birthplace Kenya," with the following words written underneath it, "Is it time to stop questioning the birth certificate of Obama? Wednesday, the governor of Hawaii signed a bill that limits the number of requests that individuals can make a birth certificate for Obama..."

Not far below that is a picture of my book with a description of it. In my book, which satirizes the far-right end of the political spectrum, I debunk many claims made about the president - one being that he was born in Kenya! Yes, on a page which is attempting to persuade people of the conspiracy theory that President Obama was born in Kenya, there appears my book making fun of such conspiracies and debunking, among them, that very one! How's that for "ironic," Alanis?

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...
