Three months after Kasich gets KO'ed, he concedes defeat

Boxer John Kasich, better known as "The Mediocre White Hype," conceded defeat today, three months after he was knocked out by "The Orange Menace."

Here's how The Mediocre White Hype sprung this news on his Facebook page: 

"After three long months of looking for The Orange Menace, trying to get him to acknowledge my existence, and asking if I can get a do-over, I've finally decided to give up. I did all I could. I contacted all the judges to ask if they could think about scoring the match differently, and like a bunch of robots, they said, 'Sorry, but you getting knocked out five seconds into the fight and not getting up for a couple hours decided it for me.' I really think I would have had a better chance beating Killery than The Orange Menace does for his next fight, but I digress..."

Upon reading his post, several leading mental health experts stated they were worried Kasich might be suffering some potentially serious repercussions due to the knockout, as he closed his Facebook post by repeatedly saying, "Balanced budget. Balancing the budget. I'm the only one who's balanced the budget. My budget is balanced. Balance. Budget."

When I caught up with The Orange Menace to ask him about The Mediocre White Hype finally conceding defeat, he said, "Who? Who's The Medieval White Hype?" before pushing me away and walking into the tanning salon, "Nothing Rhymes with Orange Spray."

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...
