"The greatest deception in the history of mankind..."

According to Louisiana State Representative Lenar Whitney (yes, a Republican), global-warming/climate-change is "perhaps the greatest deception in the history of mankind."

Yes, even though the Arctic sea ice is still melting, winters have been continually getting warmer (this past one excluded), and carbon dioxide concentrations have been continuing to rise, global-warming is "perhaps the greatest deception in the history of mankind."

What really makes me laugh about these global-warming deniers is the fact many of them are ardent believers in the Bible.

Representative Whitney, what do you have to say about global-warming, and the fact temperatures have been rising and arctic ice has been melting?

"It is perhaps the greatest deception in the history of mankind."

Representative Whitney, what do you have to say about the Bible, and the belief that a virgin gave birth to a perfect being, and this perfect being sacrificed himself on a cross to save mankind from their sins, only to rise from the dead three days later?

"That's 100% true!"

It's at that point where even Jesus strikes the facepalm pose...

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 ...
