The Bachmann Is Nuts Series - Part 21,946

Another day has passed and another crazy quote from Michele Bachmann has been uttered. When speaking to online conspiracy giant WorldNetDaily about immigration reform, Bachmann said that Republicans "could actually lose the gavel in 2014" if the bill passed. This would happen by way of President Obama waving "his magic wand before 2014" and saying "now all of the new, legal Americans are going to have voting rights."

She continued by saying this:

"I'm not crying wolf here. This is working for the president. It's not working for the American people, but hey, it's great by him. He has a perpetual magic wand and nobody's given him a spanking yet and taken it out of his hand. That's what Congress needs to do -- give the president a major wake-up call. And the way we spank the president is we do it through the checkbook. We're the ones who say, "No, you can't have the money.' What's wrong with us?"

Bachmann is crying more than wolf. She's crying Glenn Beck (meaning crazy). I guess she feels that it was Obama's magic wand which allowed 300,000 undocumented young people to vote in the 2012 election. The problem with that is the fact that while the president granted these DREAMers reprieve from deportation concerns and allowed them to legally work in this country, go to school, and obtain a driver's license, it did not grant them the right to vote.

On that note, here is some more crazy motherly advice from Ms. Bachmann that she'll likely spout at some point in the next 3.5 years:

- "What we need to do is send Obama to his room for not being born in this country!"

- "What we need to do is put Obama in a corner for all those wars he engaged us in before 2009!"

- "What we need to give Obama is a timeout for passing the Patriot Act, which stripped us of our civil liberties!"

- "What we need to do is hit Obama with a belt for being a Muslim!"

- "What we need to do is..." stop talking crazy...

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 ...
