An overview of the Romney campaign

Having paid close attention to the Romney campaign from early in the Republican primary all the way to the presidential election, I think I'm qualified to provide a thorough overview of this very campaign. Traveling back in time for a moment, I'm going to crawl inside the mind of Mitt Romney at the inception of the Republican primary and let the world know what's to come from his campaign. Without further ado, here he is - the one, the only Mitt Romney!

"Good evening. So, here's an idea - why don't we take America back? How are we going to do that? Through my plan. My plan has been proven to work. I worked in business for a long time. I know what works and what doesn't work. I can't tell you what that plan is until after the election, but trust me - it works! All I'll say is the plan is smart, effective and best for the American people. You're welcome.

Let me say something else. Throughout this coming campaign, it's going to sound like I change my mind a lot. This isn't true. I'm always consistent. If you hear me say I'm pro-choice one day, pro-life the next, just remember that I'm just trying to garner votes. In my heart, I've always been consistent with my position on the issues. I'm not entirely certain if I am pro-life or pro-choice, but whatever I am, I've always been and will continue to always be consistent with my position on that very issue.

If, at some point, the liberal media plays a video clip of me saying that I only care about and represent 53% of the country, realize that's not true - that's just liberal bias. Yes, I may have said those words, but it doesn't mean I meant them. I was just trying to make some large donors feel confident in me and my plans. Trust me - I care about 100% of the people in this country, especially those large donors.

I also want everyone to know that we shouldn't trust the so-called fact-checkers. Whether one or one-hundred and one fact-checkers claim a statement I made is false, don't believe them. If they provide concrete evidence to debunk my claim, don't believe them. Even if there's a 100% chance I'd be found guilty by a judge for lying, you have to trust me. I've never lied before and never will lie. Yes, I just had my fingers crossed, but you see? I once again didn't lie.

My religion is kind of a personal issue, but even though I may be Mormon, I am more Christian than the Christian, Barack Obama. While Obama will say he's pro-choice and pro-gay marriage, I will, like a good Mormon Christian, say I'm pro-choice, but then decide to be pro-life and also go from pro-gay rights to anti-gay rights. It's this consistency of mine that is going to help lead me to the Oval Office.

Ladies and gentleman - you're going to have a choice this coming November. You can go with the guy who has helped move this country forward the past four years in Barack Obama or you can go with me - the guy with the plan that will help save this country. I can't tell you about it until after you elect me, but trust me - it works. Whether or not I've had my fingers crossed this entire time is up for you all to decide. God bless you and God bless the United States of America!"

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...

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 ...
