Podcast: "I Feel Snitty," Episode 175: "'Weirdos' (parody based on the David Bowie song, 'Heroes')" is now available!

The latest episode of my podcast ("I Feel Snitty"), entitled, "'Weirdos' (parody based on the David Bowie song, 'Heroes')" is now available!

Here are the lyrics:

“Weirdos” (parody based off the David Bowie song, “Heroes”)

You, you speak and tweet

“I am completely free!”

Then threaten to kill a blue jay

You can tweet that, but may still pay

You can be weirdos, but may still pay

 

And you can see movies

At a theater down the road

You shout the wrong trivia answers

Mumble about all the trailers

Then threaten to light the place on fire

But only you get burned that day

You can be weirdos, well, but with exceptions

Don’t be cray

 

You can fly in a plane

Like the snakes, snakes that fly on a plane

You can talk, bark, and hiss as much as you want

With the exception you start shouting, “BOMB!”

Yeah, you can be weirdos, but may still pay

 

You, you speak and tweet

“I am completely free!”

Then threaten to kill a blue jay

You can be weirdos, but may still pay

You can be schmucks, but may still pay

 

Nothing is absolute (absolutely)

Not even freedom (nor freedumb)

Ask law enforcement and physics (cops and physics)

Not to mention suspicious girlfriends (yes, all of them)

There are exceptions to every rule

Yes, even exceptions to exceptions too

Yeah, you can be weirdos, but may still pay

 

You can be weirdos

You can be weirdos

You can be weirdos

But may still pay

You can be weirdos

 

You can believe that the Earth is flat

You can speak and tweet that nonsense any day

But while not arrested, you may still pay

 

Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, you may still pay

 

The song can be heard and found here: https://ifeelsnitty.podbean.com/e/weirdos-parody-based-on-the-david-bowie-song-heroes/

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...
