Book(s) Update and March Madness

Well, I've officially finished proofreading and editing book #3 out of 4 (LOL at the GOP - Volume 4: Guns, Jesus, Corporations, and Fetuses). I'll attempt to finish proofreading and editing book #4 next week (LOL at the GOP - Volume 5: You Can't Spell "Forgot To Take Their Crazy Pills" Without "Tea Party"). In the meantime, I'll hopefully have books #1 and #2 fully proofread by another (The Kind-Hearted Smarta*s - Volume 2: The Wisecracks Continue and The Kind-Hearted Smart Aleck - Volume 2: The Wisecracks Continue) by the end of the weekend. If she really gets on a roll, perhaps she can proofread book #3 as well. 

In any case, I've reached a point in the week where my mind really can't handle any more, and I'm going to enjoy some March Madness college basketball starting in approximately one hour! I hope everyone enjoys their coming weekends, and if you're into March Madness, that you enjoy that as well! Best of luck to your hometown teams, and I'll be certain to update everyone on the books' progress come Monday. Once again, to be continued...

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...
