Perv Filner

San Diego mayor and man voted to have the creepiest face this side of Chucky - Bob Filner - has come under a great deal of scrutiny in recent weeks over multiple women claiming he sexually harassed them. Instead of stepping down, the mayor said he plans on going to a clinic for two weeks of "intensive therapy."

Now, Filner and his attorney, Harvery Berger, are contending that if the mayor had been mandated by the city to take sexual harassment training prior to taking office, the alleged cases of harassment would have never taken place.

As Berger wrote in a July 29th letter to City Attorney Jan Goldsmith, "Had the city provided mandatory sexual harassment training to Mayor Filner, [former spokeswoman Irene] McCormack Jackson may never have brought her lawsuit."

Really? What were some of these allegations again? That Filner forcibly kissed women, tapped their bottoms, and told them they'd work better without their panties on? Even the biggest idiot would know these are no-nos, not just in the workplace, but anywhere. It's laughable that sexual harassment training would have aided this man with his obvious issue, and possibly even more laughable that he expects us to believe two weeks of "intense therapy" will cure this man of his perversions. Either Mayor Filner is a complete moron or he's lying his tuchus off.

Mayor Filner: "I'm going to kill you!" ::shoots and kills someone who works for him::

::an arrest follows::

Filner: "Well, if I had been given the proper violence-murder training prior to stepping in office, I probably would have never done that."

Yeah, what Filner should do is step down, go to therapy for the long-haul, never enter politics again, and do women everywhere a favor by placing a bag over his head whenever he walks out of his house, which reads, "I'm Perv Filner."

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...
