Parodies I've written and sung

Due to my love for writing, satire in particular, and compliments I've received from drunk people at bars for my singing, I decided to start writing parodies. I was unable to attach individual (music) files to this blog, so I created a site which would allow for me to add such files and share them on here. To this point, the parodies are largely centered around Donald Trump. To check them out, go to the link below. While I'll surely write more such songs in the future, here are the five I've written and sung to this point:

1) "The Best Words on Earth" (based off Marilyn Manson's song, "The Last Day on Earth")

2) "The Donald Fan" (based off Billy Joel's song, "Piano Man")

3) "Tweeting Some Lies" (based off Neil Diamond's song, "Sweet Caroline")

4) "You're So Vague" (based off Carly Simon's song, "You're So Vain")

5) "Yuge" (based off Better Than Ezra's song, "Good")

*Forewarning: These were all first takes, so they're probably not the smoothest of operations, but I've received compliments on them anyway.

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 ...
