Fox News hero George "Peacnik" Zimmerman strikes again

Before I go into this next report regarding George Zimmerman, Fox News talking heads, is there anything you would like to say regarding this man?

- "A real American hero that man is!"

- "If anybody was ever a victim, it was George Zimmerman!"

- "I'm not even gay, but if I had the chance, I'd do him."

- "This man's middle name should be common sense. I mean, who else hasn't felt endangered by a black kid walking around the neighborhood fully loaded with ice tea and Skittles?"

- "If I had a daughter, and George Zimmerman were the last man on earth, well, besides me, I'd happily shake his hand and call him son. Seriously, b*tches be crazy if they don't want him!"

Thanks for your input, guys. Well, here's a basic rundown of Fox News' hero, George Zimmerman's life, since he was acquitted of murder and manslaughter charges:

- A year ago, he threatened his estranged wife and father-in-law with a knife, punching the man in the nose.

- He then pulled a gun at his estranged wife's parents' place not long after she filed for divorce.

- Two months later, he was arrested for aggravated assault and battery after supposedly pointing a shotgun at his girlfriend.

That brings us to the most recent such story. From the sounds of it, George Zimmerman had a bit of a road rage incident, where, according to police, he pulled his truck alongside another person, before yelling, "Why are you pointing a finger at me? Do you know who I am? I'll f**king kill you."

The following day, the man Zimmerman threatened called 911, because he claimed that "Zimmerman was waiting for him at work and that he feared for his safety."

Fox News talking heads, given this bit of news, would you like to perhaps revise your earlier statements regarding George Zimmerman?

- "He's still an American hero in my book, which was probably written by someone else!"

- "You can't spell George Zimmerman without victim!"

- "I think I want him even more right now! ...but I'm still not gay!'

- "George Common Sense Zimmerman - yeah, that does sound about perfect!"

- "If only I had a daughter, her name would be Justine Hymn Zimmerman. :: sighs ::"

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...

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 ...

A closer look at the Scramble With Friends power-ups

I am unashamed to admit that I'm a nerd. My idea of a good time is playing a word game like Boggle or Scrabble. Thankfully, I (and many others) can play such games via Facebook and/or my (our) cell phone(s). While it seems that cheating has become more commonplace in these games (Words With Friends in particular) than San Diego has had nice weather, I've yet to give in to that craze. One element present with the game Scramble With Friends (Boggle) not present in Words With Friends (Scrabble) are legal boosts called "power-ups," which cost a number of tokens from the 15 available. I've now tried all five power-ups, including the latest one which costs money. So, in case anyone's curious about playing the game or giving these power-ups a gander, here's a rundown of them all: Freeze - I think this is probably my favorite of all the power-ups. With the freeze, time stands still for a matter of seconds, which allows you more time to find words and improve...
