A Rocky Mountain High - Literally!

With marijuana being legalized in Colorado for recreational use, I can see the following event unfolding at some point:

Setting: A cop pulls someone over going 25 mph on the interstate

::the driver lowers his window and a cloud of smoke comes out::

Officer Robert Munchy: ::coughs:: "Have you been smoking the weed tonight, sir?"

Fernando Bong: "Why would you think that, man?"

Officer Munchy: "Could you step out of the vehicle please, sir?"

Fernando: "Sure, I can. I have the ability to, man. But do you like mean, 'Can I' or 'Will I,' you know?"

Officer Munchy: "Get out of the car."

Fernando: "For sure, dude"

Officer Munchy: "Okay, for our first test, I'm going to show you a doughnut, and let's just see what happens, shall we?"

Fernando: "Far out"

Officer Munchy: ::holds the doughnut out for a couple of seconds before eating it::

Fernando: "Wow! Are you high too?"

Officer Munchy: "So, you admit it? I knew it! You're under arrest!"

Fernando: "Whoa! That's so not fair! You get the doughnut and I get arrested?"

Officer Munchy: "That's just too bad, isn't it?"

Fernando: "So, did anyone ever tell you how interesting the lights on police cars are? I mean, just look at them for a minute. That right there symbolizes the meaning of life. It's like experiencing God and nature and everything around us are in those lights right in front of us, and..."

Officer Munchy: ::uncuffs Fernando:: "Please just go... Let this be a warning to you."

Fernando: "But I thought we were talking and bonding and stuff."

Officer Murphy: "Here, have the rest of these doughnuts. Just stop talking."

Fernando: "Don't go! I want to look at the lights some more and talk about factual conspiracy theories!"

Officer Munchy: :walks away and mumbles:: "Geez... I hope my wife and her friends don't start doing this stuff at our place every Wednesday before talking about the books they read. Ugh..."

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...
