I've received proof copies to three new books

I've received the proof copies to my new books The Kind-Hearted Smarta*s - Volume 2: The Wisecracks Continue (Uncensored Version), The Kind-Hearted Smart Aleck - Volume 2: The Wisecracks Continue (Censored Version), and LOL at the GOP - Volume 4: Guns, Jesus, Corporations, and Fetuses. Upon first glance, they all look pretty good, but I'll have to go through each one individually to make 100% certain the quality of the products is up to my standards. If all goes well, the three books should become available in both paperback and kindle form on Monday. I've also completed the cover for my fourth upcoming book, LOL at the GOP - Volume 5: You Can't Spell "Forgot To Take Their Crazy Pills" Without "Tea Party." So, after my proofreader proofreads the book and I edit the errors she spots, I'll send away for a proof copy of that as well. Hopefully that book will become available in the next week and a half or so. Well, that's the news for now. I'll likely post another such blog on Monday once the books become available, with further details. Stay tuned...

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...
