“The Donald Fan” (to the tune of Billy Joel’s “Piano Man”)

The clock reads a number on 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 really stretches the truth
It's vague yet nasty
And it sounds incomplete
Like they pretty much always do

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

They think the Donald is a friend of theirs
He feeds them some lies for free
And he's quick with self-praise and bashing on “the” gays
But women? He's been married to three

He says, "People, Mexicans are killing us"
"Sushi Muslims and fact-checkers too"
"The lib’ral media will research my words"
"I want to tell them, ‘Well, f-you too!’"

Trumpeteers are ardent immoralists
The Golden Rule seen as dark green
Greed, judgment, and narcissism are best friends of theirs
Yelling, "Hippy Jesus saved me"

They're at home preparing for Armageddon
In case Biden gets more EC votes
"He’ll destroy the world like his president did"
"Just like his highness - The Donald - told us"

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

An unbelievable crowd for any day
Crown Royal being passed around
The patrons not making sense, not chanting in sync
Was something about building a wall

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

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

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...
