In or out of office, Allen West is cray-cray

Now out of office, former Florida Congressman Allen West is at it again, making it clearly known to everyone in the world that two-and-a-half years after his failed reelection bid, he's as crazy as ever.

The former congressman, who loves conspiracies more than dogs love sniffing butts, recently wrote about the following Walmart experience on his blog:

"There was a young man doing the checkout and another Walmart employee came over and put up a sign, 'No alcohol products in this lane.' So being the inquisitive fella I am, I used my additional set of eyes - glasses - to see the young checkout man's name. Let me just say it was NOT 'Steve.'

I pointed the sign out to [my daughter] Aubrey and her response was a simple question, how is it that this Muslim employee could refuse service to customers based on his religious beliefs, but Christians are being forced to participate in specific events contrary to their religious beliefs?"

Not long after West's post, he updated it by writing this:

"EDITOR's UPDATE: We spoke to the Walmart store, and apparently employees under 21 years old are prohibited from selling cigarettes and alcohol. However, that isn't to say Walmart isn't selectively caving to Muslim demands, such as this case regarding Halal meat in Ohio."

Yes, Allen West thought that this allegedly Muslim Walmart employee wasn't selling alcohol because of his religious beliefs and it was part of some grand conspiracy. After (re)learning that he's an idiot, West still contended that even though he was wrong this one time, that doesn't mean there still isn't this grand religious conspiracy at work here.

Given this story, expect to hear Allen West make the following statements at some point in the future:

Setting: At an Indian vegetarian restaurant

Raj Naan: "What can I get for you today, sir?"

Allen West: "I'd like the steak, medium-rare."

Raj: "Sir, I'm sorry, but I can't do that."

West: "You're joking, right? This is because I'm a Christian, isn't it?"

Raj: "Sir, this is a vegetarian restaurant; we don't serve meat."

West: "Well, that's un-American! Get me a steak and get it now or else I'll press charges on the grounds of religious persecution!"

Raj: "Jesus..." :: walks away ::

West: "Yes, Jesus! He will come again, will save me, and will not save un-Christian non-meat eaters like you! Damn you all to hell!"


Setting: Seeing a 10-year-old boy at a park while with his daughter

Allen West :: walks up to the kid :: "I'd like to buy a pack of cigarettes."

Joey Littleton: "Don't have any."

West: "What? WHAT?!? Is this because I'm a Christian?!? I'm taking this up with the authorities!"

Joey: "Yeah, me too..."


Setting: At a bar

Allen West: "Excuse me, bartender? I'd like new tires and my oil changed."

Bartender Lorraine Sassy: "A what and a what?"

West: "What are you, deaf?"

Sassy: "No, I'm a bartender, not a f**king mechanic. Get your new tires and oil changed somewhere else. We don't do that here."

West: "Tell me something, are you a Muslim or an Atheist?"

Sassy: "What's it to you?"

West: "Well, it so happens that I'm a Christian, know some pretty powerful people, and if these powerful people find out you didn't do my tires or oil because of you not agreeing with my religious beliefs, you'll go down; you'll go down hard! This whole place will go down!"

Sassy: "Go for it, putz. I'd love to see their reactions after you tell them you asked for new tires and an oil change at a bar. While you're at it, why don't you go to a car dealership and ask for a new house or a bookstore and ask for a corvette? Better yet, why don't you go to a confessional and ask for a blowjob? Nevermind, that one might actually work."

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...
