Virginia pizza shop offers a 15% discount to anyone carrying a gun. No, nothing could go wrong there...

Jay Laze, owner of the Virginia pizza shop All Around Pizzas and Deli, has recently offered a 15% discount to any customer that carries with them a gun into his shop.

That's right, whether a person brings in a pistol or an AK-47, he or she will be given a 15% discount on their order. No, nothing could possibly go wrong here...

Whether these guns were legally obtained is of no relevance. Neither is the mental state of the customer, his/her criminal history, blood-alcohol level, etc.

More guns equal less shootings! It's a fact! Just like more fast food equals less obesity! With this new discount, I can't possibly see the following scenario play out with some drunk kids:

Drunkard #1: "Dude, I'm hungry."

Drunkard #2: "Me too. Let's get some pizza!"

#1: "Yeah! I know! Let's get some free pizza at that one place. Do you have your gun on you?"

#2: "Always. We showered together just before we got drunk. Free pizza, though? Really?"

#1: "Yeah! Some dude has this discount on pizza if you bring a gun!"

#2: "But, I don't have any money."

#1: "Me neither. Well, we'll have our guns on us. That 15% discount will be 100% if we point them at him."

#2: "Alright. Let's do this! I'm starving!"

I'm also certain parents with young kids will like this as well...

Joanna: "So, where should we take the kids out to eat tonight? McDonald's? Pizza Hut? Subway?"

Teddy: "I was thinking about that pizza joint with all the guns..."

Joanna: "That's a great idea! I accidentally threw away all my coupons for this week. Our guns will be our coupons! We should go out and buy guns for Ted Jr., Ricardo, and Mo."

Teddy: "I don't know if that's possible since they're 2, 4, and 6 years old. We can sure as hell try, though! This is America, dam*it!"

Joanna: "We'll just have to make sure to all wear helmets and bulletproof vests, just in case one of our guns accidentally goes off again."

Teddy: "Yeah, I'll never forget that time it went off in church, and in the middle of a prayer too. I hope the good Lord can forgive me."

Joanna: "He will, sweetie. Now, let's go buy and surround our young kids with deadly weapons."

Yeah, in light of this bit of news, Jay Laze will start offering discounts for customers whom carry in the following:

- Machetes: 25% off

- Rocket launchers: 50% off

- A tank: 75% off

- An autographed picture of Ted Nugent: 100% off

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 ...
