...and that's how you spell i-r-o-n-y, my friends...

I read a comment last night which made me laugh out loud and felt the need to share it. Yes, I know the term "LOL" tends to get used rather loosely, but I literally LOLed when I read a Donald Trump supporter say the following - "Bernie Sanders rallies scare the hell out of me!"

Yes, that's right, a supporter of a man who regularly incites violence at his own rallies, leaving several injured and/or arrested, is frightened by a group of "hippies" holding hands, singing kumbaya, and smoking medical marijuana when surrounding an old man who resembles Doc Brown from Back to the Future.

Trump rally: "Kick that guy's ass! Yes, his! That other one too! Yo, old fart, sucker-punch that black dude who's walking out of here! Oh, and the rest of you pansy-ass hippy protester pieces of sh*t have to leave! Now! Or else!"

Trump supporter: "I gotta tell you, I could probably fall asleep right now I'm so relaxed. The only thing which could relax me more is if I heard some people firing a few guns."


Sanders rally: "Everyone deserves healthcare! Everyone deserves a free college education! Everyone deserves equal rights and opportunities! Chant with me: E-qual-i-ty! E-qual-i-ty! E-qual-i-ty!"

Trump supporter: "Everybody run! Let's get out of here! Ahhhhhhhhhhh!"


Yeah, given this Trump supporter's seemingly odd manner of, eh, thinking, I'll expect him to utter the following lines in the future (if he hasn't already):

- "Why, when standing on top of this ladder, do I feel shorter?"

- "To help me sleep at night, I just put 'Uptown Funk' on repeat and I'm out within 2 minutes every time."

- "Since they were real little, I've always told my kids, 'The best way to dry off is by taking a shower.'"

- "When I'm in a big hurry and am running late for something, instead of taking my car, I pretend to do the hurdles while wearing ice skates."

- "There's nothing quite like putting your head in the freezer when you're cold and want to warm up!"

- "Some people may lay outside or go to the tanning booths, but when I want to get a nice summer tan, I play video games in the basement for a few hours."

- "The first and most important rule to not get shot by a gun is to put your mouth over it and give the shooter the thumb's up signal with both hands."

- "The grass is always greener on the other side when that other side has faced record droughts and wasn't very green to begin with."

- "The best way to get and feel nice and clean is slip 'n' sliding in the mud."

- "To enjoy a nice moment of silence, my family and I have this weekly thing called TT or Tourette's Tuesdays."

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...
