I'm about halfway through the editing/proofreading/researching/footnoting stage with two of my upcoming four books. It's my goal to completely get through that step by Friday of this week. I'll then need to come up with smart aleck comments for the footnotes and go through another round of proofreading and editing before I feel ready for the final step(s). Given all of that, I'm still hopeful the two books will become available in late February or early March. Regardless of when that date is, however, I'll be certain to continually update readers on matters. I'll come out with more details in the coming weeks, but for now, I'll just announce that the titles of the two books will be The Kind-Hearted Smarta*s - Volume 2: The Wisecracks Continue (uncensored version) and The Kind-Hearted Smart Aleck - Volume 2: The Wisecracks Continue (censored version). The censored version will run more like a PG-13 film in terms of adult content and language, while the uncensored version will run like an R-rated picture. Well, that's about all the news I have for now. It's time to get back to work!
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
