I like spicy nuts and I cannot lie...

I just recently discovered I'm quite the fan of almonds and pistachios, especially of the spicy variety. Having learned this and craving for some more, I searched "the Google" for new flavors to try and stumbled across Nuts.com. Having done business with them twice now, I have to say I'm quite impressed with both the service and the product. All of the nuts I've tried (don't get any dirty thoughts here) have been so tasty, I think I may be addicted. Not only that, but the service has been fantastic as well. I received the packages a couple days after I finalized my orders. The nut containers, as a friend told me, "Are so cute." Yes, she went there. In addition to that, with both orders, I received a free sampling of another flavor of pistachios. So, if you love nuts as much as I do, I'd definitely recommend checking out Nuts.com. Thank Buddha I didn't have to say that on the air, because I know I'd be cracking up while doing so.

Oh, and if you like spicy, I'd recommend trying the sweet and spicy chipotle pistachios and marsala peanuts. If you like plain pistachios, I'd definitely suggest you try the Turkish pistachios (siirt). The cilantro lime pistachios and Thai curry cashews are quite tasty as well.

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 ...
