#ThingsJesusNeverSaid appears on Twitter yet again!

A little over two months ago, I found myself addicted to a Twitter hashtag on a Saturday afternoon, which was entitled, #ThingsJesusNeverSaid. As former ESPN SportsCenter anchor Stuart Scott used to say, I was like butter, because I was on a roll. When all was said and done, I think I came up with between 40 and 50 tweets regarding that hashtag until I finally decided to get off my lazy bum and head out for a bit. One of my tweets received so many favorites and retweets, it was regarded as one of Fusion.net's Tweets of the Week.

Well, that very hashtag made its presence known yet again on Twitter over the past 36 hours, and while it didn't trend as long as it had previously (yeah, it went from Monday to Tuesday as opposed to Saturday to Monday last time) and I didn't garner as much traction on my 13 tweets, I had fun and thought I'd share them: 

1) "I died for every one of you, except for the homos. Sure, I can forgive murderers, but Lance Bass is just too weird."
#ThingsJesusNeverSaid (19 retweets, 27 favorites)

2) "Corporations are people, my friends."
#ThingsJesusNeverSaid (21 retweets, 13 favorites)

3) "Nothing tickles my fancy more than televangelists using my name to get rich."
#ThingsJesusNeverSaid (11 retweets, 15 favorites)

4) "I'm white, was born in America, and love nothing more than going to the shooting range at least once a week!"
#ThingsJesusNeverSaid (7 retweets, 10 favorites)

5) "Mike Huckabee and Rick Santorum are definitely 100% heterosexual."
#ThingsJesusNeverSaid (3 retweets, 10 favorites)

6) "Rush Limbaugh proves that marriage should be between one man & one woman, well, four times!"
#ThingsJesusNeverSaid (9 retweets, 3 favorites)

7) "If someone slaps you on one cheek, turn the other one to him also, before busting out your semi-automatic!"
#ThingsJesusNeverSaid (1 retweet, 5 favorites)

8) "I absolutely love Trump's ideas on deportation, even though I'd technically be a foreigner in the U.S.!"
#ThingsJesusNeverSaid (2 retweets, 3 favorites)

8) "You can call me JC for short, which stands for Justifying Capitalism." 
#ThingsJesusNeverSaid (2 retweets, 3 favorites)

10) "Rand Paul is right! If you're poor, you're lazy & you suck! Now where did I put my robe & sandals?"
#ThingsJesusNeverSaid (0 retweets, 4 favorites)

11) "Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone at her. Just kidding, ya'll; I'll do it!"
#ThingsJesusNeverSaid (0 retweets, 3 favorites)

11) "Trump 2016!"
#ThingsJesusNeverSaid (1 retweet, 2 favorites)

13) "The 11th Commandment actually is, 'Thou shalt always talk about me and misuse my name during GOP debates'."
#ThingsJesusNeverSaid (0 retweets, 2 favorites)

76 retweets, 100 favorites

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...
