What I learned in Week 11 of the NFL season

In Week 11 of the NFL season I learned that...

- ...nobody circles the wagons like Frank Reich against the Buffalo Bills.

- ..., after the season, Baker Mayfield is scheduled to undergo a full-body transplant.

- ...the soap opera known as the Las Vegas Raiders will soon appear on "The Maury Povich Show," where they will ultimately learn who their father is.

- ...anyone who sat through the entirety of the Dolphins/Jets game was automatically entered into a raffle for a chance to win $100,000. As there were no entries, we'll have to wait until next year for a winner.

- ...it appears the Pete Carroll-Russell Wilson marriage will be coming to an end. While Wilson will fall back to his girl on the side - Ciara, Carroll will start training for the Olympics.

- ..., with his four picks against the lowly Houston Texans on Sunday, Ryan Tannehill is now being rumored to be the Atlanta Falcons quarterback of the future.

- ...it's just the right dose and prescription when Dr. Rodgers gets a taste of his own medicine.

- ...the NFL has become more unpredictable than weather forecasts in never-never land.

- ..., given his play, Jonathan Taylor is set to star in the latest rendition of "Beauty & the Beast." No, he's not the beauty...

- ...Aaron Rodgers' toe hurts. Chances are he'll treat it with a combination of Dimetapp, Imodium, and Pepto Bismol.

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...
