Marco Rubio wants to drink with an underage Muslim

When GOP presidential hopeful Marco Rubio was recently asked who he'd like to have a beer with, he came back with three answers: 1) Ex-NFL star Dan Marino, 2) Russian chess master Garry Kasparov, and 3) underage Muslim Malala Yousafzai.

No, this isn't an article by The Onion. Malala, an 18-year-old Pakistani Muslim, can't legally purchase alcohol for two reasons: 1) She's underage and 2) She's a Muslim in Pakistan.

Yeah, when asked the question who they'd most like to have a beer with, here's how some of the candidates would likely respond:

Donald Trump: "I've already had a beer with pretty much everybody."

Mike Huckabee: "I'd like to have a drink with Kim Davis again."

Ben Carson: "I only drink for Jesus."

Chris Christie: "I'd like to have a beer with Joey, Tony, Tommy, Johnny, Donny, and Gus."

Jeb Bush: "I'd like to sit down and have a drink with the smartest, bravest man I've ever known, my brother, George W. Bush."

Carly Fiorina: "Honestly, I'd like to have a drink with Donald Trump sometime."

Rand Paul: "I think if I could, I'd like to have a beer with Willie Nelson."

Ted Cruz: "I only drink with myself."

John Kasich: "I'd like to have a beer with a hard-working blue-collar family man named Tom."

Marco Rubio: "If I could have a beer with anyone, it'd be with an underage Muslim girl."

Based on this comment, expect to hear Senator Rubio say the following things at some point in the future:

- "The next time Benjamin Netanyahu visits the U.S., I'm going to offer to take him out for some BLT's and insist he gets extra bacon at the place we're going! It's so good!"

- "If I could eat a steak with anyone, it'd probably be Gandhi. I'm thinking he was a filet mignon kind of guy."

- "If I become president and I talk to Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, I'm going to say to him, 'You know what's missing from our nuclear pact thing? HoneyBaked ham. I guarantee it, you've never tried anything like it! You don't even know!"

Yeah, the next time Senator Rubio visits Pakistan, I hope Malala says to him, "So, I hear you wanted to take me out for a beer," and takes him out for some root beer. It'd only be a matter of time before Rubio said, "Wait, but this isn't real beer..." No, and he's not real educated when it comes to underage Muslims...

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...
