Oh, the irony...

So I met up with my girlfriend and some of her family at the Columbus Arts Festival yesterday afternoon. I brought with me 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. In case my girlfriend parked close by, I wanted to show her the book when all was said and done. She didn't park anywhere near where I did, so that didn't happen. But upon returning to the car after looking at the art work, I noticed a flier which appeared to be placed on every car in that particular parking lot.

On the flier read the following:

"Cap City Firearms - Protect Yourself, Home and Family. 'Ohio's premier conceal carry training'

Conceal & Carry Course
Our concealed carry course is now only $99.00 limited time!
If you pre-register at www.capcityfirearms.com
Also covered: Basic firearm safety, firearm storage/types, pistol mechanisms/operation, shooting skills, pistol maintenance
NRA Certified Instructor"

After reading through this, I picked up my book and looked at it placed directly next to the flier, and chuckled. If that isn't irony, I don't know what is.

I also found it funny that the individual(s) whom placed the fliers on cars went about this operation at an arts festival. Yeah, because if there's one thing artists love, it's guns - all the while sporting tie-dye shirts with peace signs on them and listening to sounds of nature CDs.

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...
