My new book will be released on Friday, June 14th (the 6-month anniversary of the Sandy Hook shooting)

I'm not really one to believe in fate or destiny. I tend to believe in chance and coincidence. While I still believe that chance and coincidence are much more likely to be the case than fate and destiny with regard to a recent series of events, I have paused for a moment to wonder if the less likely of the two scenarios could possibly be true, before shaking my head and saying, "Nah."

Not long ago, I received a comment from a radio talk show host in Los Angeles (Norman Goldman), who complimented a blog I wrote, and shared that blog on his Facebook, Twitter, and home pages. It sounded as if he discussed the very topic my blog centered around on a show of his as well. This past Saturday, I laughed hysterically at the fact a proof copy of my new book - LOL at the GOP - Volume 3: Guns Don't Kill, Cars Don't Drive, and Ovens Don't Bake - was in my car at the time a person laid a flier on the vehicle regarding a gun-training program in Central Ohio headed by an NRA-certified instructor. Due to a couple of typos I noticed in the first proof copy of my new book, I fixed the errors and sent away for a second copy, only to realize that this coming Friday is the 6-month anniversary of the Sandy Hook school shooting. Chances are I'll receive the book on Wednesday or Thursday, but thought to myself, "How fitting would it be for this book to be released on the 6-month anniversary of the horrific school shooting which, along with the debates it prompted, was the main inspiration for this book in the first place?"

So, after very little deliberation, I have decided to release the book in both paperback and Kindle form on Friday, June 14th - 6 months to the day when the tragedy in Newtown, Connecticut took place.

I'll be certain to update readers on the matter over the next week, but mark your calendars - LOL at the GOP - Volume 3: Guns Don't Kill, Cars Don't Drive, and Ovens Don't Bake will be available for purchase this coming Friday, June 14th.

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...

Trump's Lie Tally at the CNN Debate

1) "We had the greatest economy in the history of our country. We had never done so well. Every – everybody was amazed by it. Other countries were copying us." 2) "But the thing we never got the credit for, and we should have, is getting us out of that COVID mess." 3) "The only jobs he created are for illegal immigrants and bounceback jobs; they’re bounced back from the COVID." 4) "Not going to drive them higher. It’s just going to cause countries that have been ripping us off for years, like China and many others, in all fairness to China – it’s going to just force them to pay us a lot of money, reduce our deficit tremendously, and give us a lot of power for other things." (tariffs) 5) "He also said he inherited 9 percent inflation." 6) "No, he inherited almost no inflation and it stayed that way for 14 months. And then it blew up under his leadership, because they spent money like a bunch of people that didn’t know what t...
