- - - - - Superbowl - - - - -
The Pats won by 3, so I called the spread right.
But, Vinatieri misses 2 field goals?
The Panthers go for 2 on point-after, twice - and miss both times?
Superbowls are always a little strange.
I didn't watch the half-time show, as I was walking the Ferocious Beast. Besides which, I'm not fond of any of the performers. I understand that I missed some T & A.
I only had a football interest in this game, since MY team, the SF 49ers, tanked rather badly during the course of the year, and now seem to be in personnel meltdown.
Sigh...
-----> Later....
Been watching/listening to Fox and CNN. A major topic is Janet Jackson's boob. C'mon guys! Lookit who she's related to! He dangles his kid out a window. She flashes a boob at half-time.
It's a "wardrobe malfunction", according to Timberlake.
It's a "media malfunction" according to OWW.
Every-damn- Barry-Blowdry idiot with access to a networked microphone is beating this subject to complete, functional, road-kill death.
Note - how many guys like to look at the Dallas Cowgirls' bouncing boobs? How many complain about that?
And in fact, didn't the boob in question have a jewlery-covered nipple? That, according to OWW, makes this "not accidental", but very much a planned event.
That being said, don't you expect sleaze from these people? Janet Jackson, Justin Timberlake, P Diddy, Kid Rock. Ever seen any of their stuff?
Sleazy people deliver sleaze.
That includes the news critters beating the subject to death.
- - - - - Educational Establishments - - - - -
I had hopes that the Georgia education establishment would be somewhat less silly than California's.
Not a chance.
There's a proposal floating around to remove the word "evolution" from state-approved textbooks.
- - - - - Fidel Castro - - - - -
So, Fidel thinks GW wants to assasinate him?
Tsk, tsk.
Fidel finally figured out that he's basicly irrelevant, and just can't stand it any more.
I got news for you, Fidel. At this point, if we wanted you dead, you'd be dead.
Just think - cruise missile, F117 bomb-drop, Spec Ops operator with a .50-caliber Barrett (NOT my first choice), any number of things.
Nah, we'll just let nature take it's course. Cuba seems to be a relatively stable place these days. Fidel tried exporting La Revolucion for thirty years, and it didn't take anywhere outside of Cuba.
Let him wither on the vine, like the sour grape that he is.
These folks would feel right at home in the California educational establishment.
You don't think so? Remember the proposal to study, and teach, something called Ebonics?
- - - - - And Finally.... - - - - -
Today talked to the mortgage people. All the paperwork is right, the close date is Thurs 5 Feb, and I'm finally starting to get excited.
We start to move in on Thurs. The Big Truck with all the stuff arrives Friday morning.
WoooHooo!
