A Trump-DEI Top Ten List

The Trump White House has made it a top priority to cut away anything which has even the most minor association with diversity – going so far as to flag a photo of the World War II aircraft, Enola Gay – named after the mother of the plane’s pilot, Colonel Paul Tibbets. Why? Because his mother’s name had “Gay” in it. Given that indescribably insane level of ludicrousness, here’s what I predict Trump and company will do next to kill DEI.

10. A middle finger will be added to the Statue of Liberty.

9. Due to the original term sounding similar to the ‘Koran’/’Quran,’ kids will now color with ‘crayoffs.’

8. It will be mandated for all welcome mats to say, “F*ck Off!”

7. Mother’s Day shall now be known as Daughter- and/or Son-of-a-B*tch Day

6. Discontinue Mountain Dew, since ‘Dew’ rhymes with ‘Jew.’

5. Journalists will get deported if they don’t refer to the Great Wall of China as the Greatest Wall of America.

4. Dishes at Mexican restaurants will need to be masculine in form, and the following words will be randomly added: ‘illegal,’ ‘drug-dealer,’ ‘rapist,’ or ‘alien.’ This will result in a meal being called an Illegal Enchilado, Drug-Dealer Quesadillo, Rapist Fajito, or Alien Dorito.

3. Change the names of ‘white’ and ‘black’ markers to ‘right’ and ‘wrong.’

2. ‘Bicycles’ will officially be called ‘Heels on Wheels.’

1. (drumroll) On world maps sold in the United States, the Greek island of Lesbos will be labeled as ‘Just a Phase.’

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...
