One chapter closes, another begins...

I recently reported that the show at which I co-host at, The Tracy & Craig Show, was on hiatus, and I was uncertain of when, or even if it'd return. Well, it seems all but certain that the show is extinct. I won't go into details as to why this is occurring. All I'll say is I wish my (former) co-host nothing but the very best; I'm incredibly grateful for the opportunity she provided me; and while I'm saddened that this chapter in my life has closed, I'm excited for the chapters ahead. I was dealing with some major health issues at the show's onset, was beyond nervous during the first episode (or three), but eventually settled in, found my voice, and actually enjoyed it. Since my co-host, Ms. Fort, was the show's founder, and due to that, had full control of it (and rightly so), I remain quite ignorant about how to start and work such a show. However, I'm already researching the matter and am hoping to start my own podcast before too terribly long. Thanks again to Tracy Fort for providing me the great opportunity of allowing my voice to be heard on her show for a year; thanks to our fans, followers, and listeners for your support; and I hope, whatever Tracy and I decide to do from here on out, we'll continue to have said support. This was a grand learning experience for me and I hope it helps for me to grow both personally and professionally in the future. Thanks again, everyone. I'll be sure to update you when I decide what to do next in the world of podcasting. Stay tuned!

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...

Face guarding is legal in college football and the NFL

I just wanted to remind fans and announcers especially, that face guarding is legal in both college football and the NFL. It all comes down to contact. So long as a defender doesn't make contact with an intended receiver, he doesn't have to turn around to play the ball. I can't tell you how many times every week I hear announcers talk about face guarding being a penalty. It's not. I even heard one announcer yesterday state, "If the defender doesn't turn around and play the ball, the ref will call pass interference every time." That's simply not true. Courtesy of referee Bill LeMonnier, he says this with regard to the rule at the college level (answered on 8/12/13): "NCAA rules on pass interference require the face guarding to have contact to be a foul. No contact, no foul by NCAA rules." In the NFL rule book, this is written:  "Actions that constitute defensive pass interference include but are not limited to: (a) Contact by a ...
