What I learned in Week 3 of the NFL season...

In Week 3 of the NFL season, I learned that...

- ..., if I had only picked the underdogs, I would have finished 10-5.

- ...Joe Flacco will always pick Disneyland over Wembley Stadium.

- ...I should never accept a high-five from Von Miller

- ...anytime they hear a person say, "You know, football is a game of inches," Detroit Lions players will line up like the scene from Airplane and beat the crap of him.

- ...the Pittsburgh Steelers may want to step onto the field at some point after the singing of the national anthem.

- ..., in Philadelphia, 61 is the new 2-1.

- ...Odell Beckham may ask for an arm amputation to make the art of catching more challenging.

- ..., after falling to 0-3 courtesy of some Aaron Rodgers magic, the Cincinnati Bengals can do anything but R-E-L-A-X.

- ...Jay Cutler may want to think about going back to the announcing booth.

- ...it took the president calling player protesters "sons of b*tches" for NFL owners to understand the Black Lives Matter movement.

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
