Breaking Worthless News

"This is MSNBC's Peter Alexander reporting some very disturbing news. There's apparently a hostage situation at a New York City Starbucks. The leader of this operation has been said to be male, tall, Caucasian with incredibly pink cheeks, and likely between the ages of 46 and 47. He... Wait, hold off on that. We've just been informed of some breaking news. Correspondent Hallie Jackson is now showing us footage of Donald Trump brushing his teeth. It's unknown what toothpaste he is using, but our money is on either Arm & Hammer or Sensodyne. Anyway, back to the hostage situation. There are apparently 5-10 people being held hostage at the New York City Starbucks and... Oh, we're just getting word that Donald Trump is in line at a Chick-fil-A. Look at him standing there. What is he thinking about ordering? Our correspondent Luke Russert just tweeted that Trump will likely either go with the Chick-n-Strips Kid's Meal or the Chick-fil-A Nuggets Kid's Meal, along with some Chocolate Milk. How interesting... Oh, shots were just fired at the New York City Starbucks. We're hearing reports that three shots have been fired. This is a scary situation for everyone. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all the people in that Starbucks, their friends, and families. Well, we'll get to the details of that in a little bit. Our own Chris Jansing has told us Donald Trump will likely open his mouth at any moment and words may come out, so let's go to her..."

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...
