Bill O'Reilly to release a new book, entitled, "Killing Journalism"

For his fifth installment in the Killing... series, Fox News host Bill O'Reilly will follow up Killing Lincoln, Killing Kennedy, Killing Jesus, and Killing Patton with an autobiography entitled, Killing Journalism.

When asked to comment about his soon-to-be-released book, O'Reilly said, "Look, if anybody's going to be fair and balanced about all the lies they've told the American public while being trusted as an on-air news personality and journalist or whatever, that person's going to be me. You gotta problem with that?"

Fortunately, we were afforded a sneak peak of Killing Journalism. Here is a list of our favorite quotes from the inevitable best-seller (whether they're actually true or not is anyone's guess):

- "Witnesses?!? Why do I need any fricking witnesses?!? I saw what happened and that's all that matters, so shut up already, son!"

- "Sources?!? You want sources?!? Here, I've got a source for you. Do you see that? Yeah, I'm grabbing my dick! There's my source! How do you like that?!?"

- "No, I didn't do that. Why on earth would I fact-check a guy in a loony bin about how he saw Obama smoke weed with Elvis a few weeks ago?"

- "Photoshopped? What the hell does that mean? You really want me to believe this isn't Obama's actual face and actual dragon body? I always said he breathes fire and this is proof!"

- "The hardest thing I've done in my entire career wasn't writing about my lies in this book; it was trying to remember all the lies I told. What was that thing George Bush said one time? That 'fool me once...' quote? Well, if it were me saying that, I would say, 'Fool you once, fool you who knows how many thousands of f**king times, shame on you!'"

In response to the upcoming book, Fox News CEO Rupert Murdoch said, "Nothing makes for a great journalist like one that's lied to the public for a couple of decades and then has the decency to admit it all in this 975-page book. It'll only be a matter of time before a few other hosts from our network release similar books."

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 ...
