Super Bowl stuff
Seems like lots of bloggers are writing about the Super Bowl*, so I may as well join the fray. We had a mini-party, just the four of us, but it was fun. I made hot wings, make-your-own-pizzas, chips n dip. I didn’t really care who won, so I was rooting for me to be entertained. The first half didn’t disappoint, but by the second half I was flipping through a stack of catalogs I’ve been meaning to look at. Pat was snoozing. Tim was in bed and Nick even went to bed by 9:30 (they were all tired from a scout overnighter on the USS Mass. battleship.)
Prince was better than expected. I was a fan back in the day, but I’m pretty cynical about come-backs. But he’s a damn good guitarist and that always wins me over. Also he played a Foo Fighters song! (Speaking of come-backs, I’m kinda excited to see the Police reunite on the Grammys, maybe I’m getting less cynical?)
The commercials were mostly eh. The Sheryl Crow hair color ad had me wanting the throw something at the tv. I liked the Doritos ads, and the Carlos Mencia Bud ads. The CareerBuilders ads were mostly funny. I have to watch the Emerald Nuts ad with Robert Goulet again, I wasn’t sure whether to laugh or cringe. And the ad with Letterman and Oprah made me laugh, but then I had to explain the back story to Pat so that made it seem pretty lame. And that GoDaddy ad had me considering moving my domain registrations elsewhere. Blech.
*I’m too lazy to link to them, but I guess not too lazy to write this footnote…
