Scarborough: "Trump and Prince are like twins!"

After hearing the saddening news of musical artist Prince's passing yesterday, the cable news networks largely devoted their time to this story. This included MSNBC's token conservative, Joe Scarborough, who had this to say regarding the matter:

"And by the way, I'll give you the last point in a second, but just on this other point where you said he's (Trump's) so flexible, he's like Prince, a shape-shifter, New York Times top left, election 2016, 'Trump's views on gay issues set him apart on the GOP.' I mean, Trump on social issues, on Planned Parenthood, when he was in the middle of the fight in South Carolina, it wasn't like he was hiding things. And so Hillary is going to be up against a guy that not only says we're not going to cut Social Security, I'm with you on social issues. And by the way, we're going to kill ISIS in two weeks."

Yes, according to Joe Scarborough, Donald Trump and Prince are more similar than any of us may have thought at first. A bit of a stretch, don't you think? Allow me to provide Mr. Scarborough with some more accurate comparisons:

- "Ted Cruz is similar to the Insane Clown Posse, in that he has the tendency to frighten little children."

- "Rand Paul is kind of like Milli Vanilli, for he often enjoys taking credit for others' work."

- "Ben Carson often sounds like Nirvana, as no one's completely sure what he's saying."

- "Jeb Bush is like a nature CD, because he's just as exciting."

- "Donald Trump is like Nickelback, for he's about one thing more than any other - repetition, repetition, repetition."

There you go, Joe. You're welcome.

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...
