A Rocky Mountain High - Literally!

With marijuana being legalized in Colorado for recreational use, I can see the following event unfolding at some point:

Setting: A cop pulls someone over going 25 mph on the interstate

::the driver lowers his window and a cloud of smoke comes out::

Officer Robert Munchy: ::coughs:: "Have you been smoking the weed tonight, sir?"

Fernando Bong: "Why would you think that, man?"

Officer Munchy: "Could you step out of the vehicle please, sir?"

Fernando: "Sure, I can. I have the ability to, man. But do you like mean, 'Can I' or 'Will I,' you know?"

Officer Munchy: "Get out of the car."

Fernando: "For sure, dude"

Officer Munchy: "Okay, for our first test, I'm going to show you a doughnut, and let's just see what happens, shall we?"

Fernando: "Far out"

Officer Munchy: ::holds the doughnut out for a couple of seconds before eating it::

Fernando: "Wow! Are you high too?"

Officer Munchy: "So, you admit it? I knew it! You're under arrest!"

Fernando: "Whoa! That's so not fair! You get the doughnut and I get arrested?"

Officer Munchy: "That's just too bad, isn't it?"

Fernando: "So, did anyone ever tell you how interesting the lights on police cars are? I mean, just look at them for a minute. That right there symbolizes the meaning of life. It's like experiencing God and nature and everything around us are in those lights right in front of us, and..."

Officer Munchy: ::uncuffs Fernando:: "Please just go... Let this be a warning to you."

Fernando: "But I thought we were talking and bonding and stuff."

Officer Murphy: "Here, have the rest of these doughnuts. Just stop talking."

Fernando: "Don't go! I want to look at the lights some more and talk about factual conspiracy theories!"

Officer Munchy: :walks away and mumbles:: "Geez... I hope my wife and her friends don't start doing this stuff at our place every Wednesday before talking about the books they read. Ugh..."

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...

Mentioned on Crooks and Liars and Hinterland Gazette!

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 ...
