Comments on my presidential debate satire

I received the following comments on a presidential-debate satire I wrote:

- "This is hysterical…and at the same time, completely believable."

- "Hilarious! Don't mute the mics! This is what you'd hear if they didn't, or close. Less coherent from Trump. I thoroughly enjoyed that"

- "This is fantastic. You hit the nail on the proverbial orange head😂😂😂"

- "I needed a laugh. This delivered. #HarrisWalzBringHope"

- "Bravo!"

- "Too close to truth to be funny"

- "Both hysterical and so close to reality it’s scary."

- "Heh."

- "You damned near made me laugh up a lung and pee my pants at the same time."

- "Bravo"

- "Read all the way to the end. 😂😂😂😂😂"

- "😂🤣 cute"

- "Did you post this in the morning so we’d laugh snort coffee out of our noses?!? Guess it was better than vodka! Thank you thank you! I needed this!"

- "OMG... SNL couldn't have done better! Thank you!"

- "Well done! As funny as it is, this ‘parody’ account of the upcoming debate is likely closer to the truth than we know."

- "More accurate than I’d like to believe. 👇"

- "Absolutely brilliant! 🥂"

- "Brilliant!"

- "Well then, you nailed it, Craig! Thanks for the chuckles 🤣 & the pondering🤔."

- "It truly is outstanding (and horrible at the same time)."

- "This is pretty spot on. 😂🤣😂 Trump is so predictable."

- "👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾"

- "👏 Now, do the press sane-splaining him."

- "This is excellent"

- "You love your country and you are a shining example of patriotism.
Bookmarked for reference tomorrow."

- "That’s some funny sh*t. 👏👏👏👏👏👏"

- "Yes, it will go down something like this… And yet, Wednesday morning the headline in the New York Times will be:

'Trump and Harris spar in first debate, layout competing visions for the country'

And will be right back where we started."

- "Media: Harris was over prepared and Trump sounded very presidential"

- "Thank you for this! I won’t have to watch tomorrow. 😂"

- "😂😂😂"

- "Well done! 👏👏👏

I realize it's satire but the Trump answers are within the realm of reality. And that should scare everybody."

- "🤣🤣🤣"

- "Hilarious"

- "Funny, great and accurate read 👇🏻"

- "BRAVO!"

- "Nailed it! 💯 😄😉"

- "So good."

- "This is genius."

- "What's the over/under on number of times Trump lies?"

- "Laughed my ass off at this, but I fully expect some of these answers from Dump Truck"

- "This was very entertaining 🤣🤣"

- "I'm sorry, I think you got it all wrong.

Trump is going to start by apologizing to the public for being so negative. He will then speak off of notes, not cuff. Trump will provide facts and data to prove his positions and he'll tell the truth the entire time.

Who am i kidding?🤣"

- "That was..... Awesome! 😂😂😂"

- "So good!!"

- "Prescient and very funny. 😄"

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...

Face guarding is legal in college football and the NFL

I just wanted to remind fans and announcers especially, that face guarding is legal in both college football and the NFL. It all comes down to contact. So long as a defender doesn't make contact with an intended receiver, he doesn't have to turn around to play the ball. I can't tell you how many times every week I hear announcers talk about face guarding being a penalty. It's not. I even heard one announcer yesterday state, "If the defender doesn't turn around and play the ball, the ref will call pass interference every time." That's simply not true. Courtesy of referee Bill LeMonnier, he says this with regard to the rule at the college level (answered on 8/12/13): "NCAA rules on pass interference require the face guarding to have contact to be a foul. No contact, no foul by NCAA rules." In the NFL rule book, this is written: "Actions that constitute defensive pass interference include but are not limited to: (a) Contact by a ...

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...
