A Fictional Interview with Donald Trump's Running Mate, J.D. Vance

For both electoral and comedic reasons, I'm thrilled with Donald Trump's selection of J.D. Vance as his running mate. Immediately upon hearing the announcement, I thought, "Ooh, this could be fun," so I decided to concoct a fictional interview, where I ask Vance a few questions, and he responds with actual quotes he's made about Trump. ...and action.

I'm here now with Ohio Senator and recently announced running mate for Donald Trump, J.D. Vance. Mr. Vance, if you had to describe Donald Trump in one word, what would it be?

"My god what an idiot."

Well, that's five words, but very well. You know you're talking about Donald Trump, the man you're running with, correct?

"I'm a 'Never Trump' guy. I never liked him."

So why are you running with him?

“I go back and forth between thinking Trump is a cynical a$$hole like Nixon who wouldn’t be that bad (and might even prove useful) or that he’s America’s Hitler. How’s that for discouraging?”

Quite, but you've recently praised Trump's vision for the country and even gone so far as to declare him to be one of the greatest presidents in our nation's history. Have you...

"Mr. Trump is unfit for our nation's highest office."

Wow... Hey, are you alright? You look paler than usual.

"I can't stomach Trump. I think that he's noxious and is leading the white working class to a very dark place."

Well, I hadn't planned on asking this question, but given all you've said, I feel I must. Who do you plan on voting for in this year's election?

"I think there's a chance, if I feel like Trump has a really good chance of winning, that I may have to hold my nose and vote for Hillary Clinton."

Lock her up, am I right? How's it feel running with a 34x-convicted felon?
"Moral disaster." "Reprehensible."

Fascinating. Before we go, is there anything else you'd like to say to our audience?
"I can't stand Trump because I think he's a fraud, I think he's a total fraud who is exploiting these people. I do too... I told my editor, America's problem (Trump) would be the book's gain... I agree with you on Trump, because I don't think he's the person, I don't think he actually cares about folks."

That was Donald Trump's running mate, J.D. Vance.

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...
