Marco Rubio has a dream!

Florida Senator and GOP presidential hopeful Marco Rubio recently went to Liberty University to talk to students and try to provide them with one reason to vote for him, He closed the appearance by answering some students' questions. For the most part, the question-and-answer session went fairly well, as Rubio's responses were light-hearted, wanting to present himself in a fun and carefree way. With regard to the final question and answer, however, things got rather interesting, so interesting that the exchange is already trending on Twitter, not even a minute after it took place.

For the final question, Liberty University Senior Christian Sirmixalot asked, "Senator Rubio, if you could go back in time, what's the one thing you've dreamt you could have done more than any other?"

Senator Rubio paused at first, before smiling and saying the following: 

"That's an interesting question. Usually when I get asked such questions, especially if I'm pressed for time, I tell the person, 'I may have to get back to you on that,' but not now. Oddly enough, I've thought about this very thing a lot, so I know exactly how to answer your question. A lot of the other candidates, if they were asked this question, they'd probably say they'd go to the Last Supper, kill Hitler, or invent the Internets, but me? I'd take Gandhi out for a big juicy steak. I mean, sure, I love war and bombs and stuff, yet I still always found Gandhi to be an inspiration. Some people would liked to have sat down and had a beer with the guy, but I'd like to take him to an Outback Steakhouse and see a big smile on his face as he munched on some beef. I don't know this for certain, but I have a feeling Gandhi was a big filet mignon kind of guy, you know? He and I could sit there, as we're eating, and discuss things like politics, religion, war, peace, and just why beef tastes so darn good. So yeah, that's always been my dream. Well, I thank you all for coming. God bless you and God bless the United States of America!"

As I write this, #BeefEatingBuddiesRubioAndVegetarianHinduGandhi is the top trend on Twitter.

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...
