Oh really, O'Reilly (Bill)?

Fox News commentator and phone sex operator Bill O'Reilly seems to believe that Fox News is still the lone counter to the evil liberal media machine.

Following the White House Correspondents' Dinner, O'Reilly made the following remarks:

"The reason that's happening is that we stand alone here in FNC in bringing skepticism to the president. We tell the folks when he does something right - I do at least - and then when he does something wrong, we say that. But you're not gonna get that on the other networks. There's gotta be critical mass. It's gotta be all over the place for those people to weigh in and you know what I'm talking about."

MSNBC is known for their liberal leanings, however does have a show - Morning Joe - which features former Republican Congressman Joe Scarborough as one of its two anchors. It also has a show called The Cycle which features conservative pundit S.E. Cupp as one of the four hosts. Does O'Reilly not think these two conservative Republicans ever criticize President Obama? Oh really, O'Reilly?

CNN is much less biased than MSNBC and with that, features many more conservative guests than one of its rival networks. The following conservatives are political contributors to CNN's programs: Erick Erickson, Marsha Blackburn, William Bennett, Nancy Pfotenhauer, Amy Holmes, Mary Matalin, David Frum, Rich Galen, Margaret Hoover, Susan Molinari, Leslie Sanchez, Alex Castellanos, Dana Loesch, S.E. Cupp, Ari Fleischer, and Kevin Madden. Does Bill-o really think these 16 conservatives don't ever speak negatively about President Obama? Oh really, O'Reilly?

The Sunday morning news shows on CBS, NBC, and ABC all regularly feature conservative as well as liberal guests. Once again, does Mr. Orally believe these conservative guests always speak fondly of President Obama? Oh really, O'Reilly?

Bill O'Reilly is partially right about one thing - the Fox News Network does stand alone on one front. No, it doesn't stand alone in being the only network to ever criticize the president; it stands alone in being the only network to spend all its time bashing the president.

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...

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...

Film Critic Steve Rhodes Has Some Issues

Normally, I don't "bash" movie critics, because what's the point? We all have different tastes in film, so who am I to say that their tastes are wrong? But, I just bumped into a critic online the other day, and I really have to wonder about him. There is not much consistency with what he likes and doesn't like. Check that, he dislikes anything with George Clooney, he either strongly likes or dislikes films dealing with politics, and he typically enjoys Arnold Schwarzenegger films. Keep in mind that this is a major film critic. This is not a guy like me who writes blog reviews after I view a film at the theaters. Also keep in mind that I'm very open-minded when it comes to films. I enjoy: comedies, dramas, science-fiction, action, suspense/mystery, horror, romantic comedies, romance, foreign, independent, satires, amongst others. It takes a lot for me to sit down, watch a film, and dislike it. There are only a few films where after the credits start rolling, I...
