Parody "The Donald Fan" (to the tune of Billy Joel's "Piano Man")

"The Donald Fan"
The clock reads a number on that one day
The poorly educated waltz in
There are old men standing everywhere
Waiting for an Oompa Loompa's twin

They say, "Tell us another random story"
One which stretches the truth
It's vague yet hyperbolic
It sounds incomplete
Like they almost always do

This is the life of The Donald fan
This is the life tonight
They're in the mood for some fallacies
And he's got them feeling all white

The Donald is a friend of theirs
He feeds them lies for free
He's quick with self-praise and bashing on gays
Yet with women he's been married to three

He says, "People, Mexicans are killing us"
"Muslims and fact-checkers too"
"The liberal media will research my words"
"And I just want tell them all, 'Yeah, well, f-you too!"

Trumpeteers are ardent immoralists
The Golden Rule seen as dark green
Greed and narcissism best friends of theirs
While yelling, "That hippy Jesus saved me"

They're at home preparing for Armageddon
In case Hillary gets more votes
"She'll destroy the world like her husband did"
"Just like The Donald told us"

This is the life of The Donald fan
This is the life tonight
They're in the mood for some fallacies
And he's got them feeling all white

It's an unbelievable crowd for any day
The Crowne Royale being passed around
The patrons not chanting in sync
Something about building a wall

The Donald he sounds like a Chucky doll
And he kind of looks like one too
He smells and pounces on the crowd's fears
As they scream, "Those are my crazy thoughts too!"

This is the life of The Donald fan
This is the life tonight
They're in the mood for some fallacies
And he's got them feeling all white

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...

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...
