#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'."

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...

Face guarding is legal in college football and the NFL

I just wanted to remind fans and announcers especially, that face guarding is legal in both college football and the NFL. It all comes down to contact. So long as a defender doesn't make contact with an intended receiver, he doesn't have to turn around to play the ball. I can't tell you how many times every week I hear announcers talk about face guarding being a penalty. It's not. I even heard one announcer yesterday state, "If the defender doesn't turn around and play the ball, the ref will call pass interference every time." That's simply not true. Courtesy of referee Bill LeMonnier, he says this with regard to the rule at the college level (answered on 8/12/13): "NCAA rules on pass interference require the face guarding to have contact to be a foul. No contact, no foul by NCAA rules." In the NFL rule book, this is written:  "Actions that constitute defensive pass interference include but are not limited to: (a) Contact by a ...

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...
