What I learned in Week 8 of the NFL season...

In Week 8 of the NFL season, I learned that...

- ...Matt Moore is who we thought he was.

- ..., at 0-1, the Cleveland Browns are a much better team in England than in the States.

- ...it's DeShaun Watson's goal to complete as many passes in a series as Mitch Trubisky completes in a month. It's possible...

- ..., when asked the question, "Who threw for over 400 yards, reached the red zone six times, and managed to score only 15 points?," make sure you respond with "the Detroit Lions."

- ...Houston Texans owner Bob McNair may one day start a Prison Guards Lives Matter movement.

- ...the Give-The-Game-Away Super Bowl was won by the Atlanta Falcons over the New York Jets, 25-20. Congratulations.

- ..., after the Buccaneers' 17-3 loss to the Panthers, Jameis Winston is likely thinking about stealing more crab legs in order to get suspended.

- ...Seattle and Houston just scored again.

- ..., based on past statements he's made, Jerry Jones would be fielding a team of ten if he owned the Texans.

- ..., after a victory, Cam Newton will happily take your questions.

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...
