Virginia pizza shop offers a 15% discount to anyone carrying a gun. No, nothing could go wrong there...

Jay Laze, owner of the Virginia pizza shop All Around Pizzas and Deli, has recently offered a 15% discount to any customer that carries with them a gun into his shop.

That's right, whether a person brings in a pistol or an AK-47, he or she will be given a 15% discount on their order. No, nothing could possibly go wrong here...

Whether these guns were legally obtained is of no relevance. Neither is the mental state of the customer, his/her criminal history, blood-alcohol level, etc.

More guns equal less shootings! It's a fact! Just like more fast food equals less obesity! With this new discount, I can't possibly see the following scenario play out with some drunk kids:

Drunkard #1: "Dude, I'm hungry."

Drunkard #2: "Me too. Let's get some pizza!"

#1: "Yeah! I know! Let's get some free pizza at that one place. Do you have your gun on you?"

#2: "Always. We showered together just before we got drunk. Free pizza, though? Really?"

#1: "Yeah! Some dude has this discount on pizza if you bring a gun!"

#2: "But, I don't have any money."

#1: "Me neither. Well, we'll have our guns on us. That 15% discount will be 100% if we point them at him."

#2: "Alright. Let's do this! I'm starving!"

I'm also certain parents with young kids will like this as well...

Joanna: "So, where should we take the kids out to eat tonight? McDonald's? Pizza Hut? Subway?"

Teddy: "I was thinking about that pizza joint with all the guns..."

Joanna: "That's a great idea! I accidentally threw away all my coupons for this week. Our guns will be our coupons! We should go out and buy guns for Ted Jr., Ricardo, and Mo."

Teddy: "I don't know if that's possible since they're 2, 4, and 6 years old. We can sure as hell try, though! This is America, dam*it!"

Joanna: "We'll just have to make sure to all wear helmets and bulletproof vests, just in case one of our guns accidentally goes off again."

Teddy: "Yeah, I'll never forget that time it went off in church, and in the middle of a prayer too. I hope the good Lord can forgive me."

Joanna: "He will, sweetie. Now, let's go buy and surround our young kids with deadly weapons."

Yeah, in light of this bit of news, Jay Laze will start offering discounts for customers whom carry in the following:

- Machetes: 25% off

- Rocket launchers: 50% off

- A tank: 75% off

- An autographed picture of Ted Nugent: 100% off

Another look at "The Nightly Show" with Larry Wilmore

After its first week, I gave The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore a B+ grade. While I didn't think the show appeared to be perfect by any stretch of the imagination, I also liked the Daily Show  meets Politically Incorrect vibe I got from it, and thought, with the proper adjustments, the show would indeed provide a great fill-in for The Colbert Report . In the show's succeeding weeks, however, I've been less impressed by it and think that if it doesn't make certain adjustments, it could be in jeopardy of losing many long-time viewers of the show's time slot. One major issue I think the show's had to this point is a lack of direction. It's been unable to decide whether it wants to be a comedy show with serious conversation sprinkled in or a serious show with comedy sprinkled in. It's almost as if the show's writers want to give The Nightly Show a Real Time with Bill Maher feel. The problem with that idea or format is the fact Real Time is an hour lon...

My first book review of "Penetrating the Heart of Life: Ambiguous In Thought, Ambivalent In Feeling"

Well, I received my first book review on this poetry-compilation book I completed and published late last year, but have finally gotten around to marketing now. The reviewer gave it 5 out of 5 stars and said: "I enjoyed the poetic journey the writer has taken me on. From darkest days and hopeful optimism to the conclusion of hope realized. The visual images that the poem titled "Room Temperature" elicits, made me think of the song, "Horse With No Name" sung by the band America. In a similar manner, another poem – "Deafening Sigh-lence" reminded me a great deal of Simon & Garfunkel’s song, "The Sound of Silence". There are so many poems in this book that I related to, that I felt a connection to the author and felt that we were traveling on this journey together." http://www.lulu.com/shop/craig-rozniecki/penetrating-the-heart-of-life-ambiguous-in-thought-ambivalent-in-feeling/paperback/product-18677501.html

A closer look at the Scramble With Friends power-ups

I am unashamed to admit that I'm a nerd. My idea of a good time is playing a word game like Boggle or Scrabble. Thankfully, I (and many others) can play such games via Facebook and/or my (our) cell phone(s). While it seems that cheating has become more commonplace in these games (Words With Friends in particular) than San Diego has had nice weather, I've yet to give in to that craze. One element present with the game Scramble With Friends (Boggle) not present in Words With Friends (Scrabble) are legal boosts called "power-ups," which cost a number of tokens from the 15 available. I've now tried all five power-ups, including the latest one which costs money. So, in case anyone's curious about playing the game or giving these power-ups a gander, here's a rundown of them all: Freeze - I think this is probably my favorite of all the power-ups. With the freeze, time stands still for a matter of seconds, which allows you more time to find words and improve...
