Today is "Super Sunday" and here are just a few tips to help you enjoy the game better:
Call it "The Big Game" – Due to very stringent NFL licensing and trade mark rules, if you are not an official corporate sponsor, using "Super" and "Bowl" together will wind you in court faster than giving Charlie Sheen a monkey a bottle of tequila and a can of spray paint.
Do NOT call it "American Football" – Yes, we get that soccer is called "futball" in the rest of the world. Get over it. We let your girlie "futball" players kick field goals and look like sissies when they have to try to tackle a real "football" player, what more do you want?
If your team isn't in it, root for the Saints – I figure is New Orleans wins, Sass will be happy, and isn't that really all this life is about anyway? Also, they would it give them something to talk about instead of the hurricane. Seriously, people, that's old news. Haitians are the new "IT" face of disaster.
The Who aren't going to flash their tit at you – If the only reason you have to watch the halftime show is to wait for that moment again, it isn't going to happen. So, eyes left. Now get over it.
Just thank whatever God or gods you worship that "Up With People" aren't doing this year's show. And there's always the Lingerie Bowl VII over on the Pay-per-View.
Healthy snacks – Communist and French-esque people will try to convince you that you should "snack smart" during the game. Hey, they can have their baby carrot sticks if they want, that just leaves more 'lil Smokies wrapped in bacon and covered in caramelized brown sugar for me. Or as Gwen of EILCC calls them, "Fat Fat Sugar".
Don't miss the ads – While many of the
ads suck rocks or are too "high concept" to really work well, you won't want to miss what a lot of people will be talking about tomorrow. So, to avoid missing part of the game or the commercials, I strongly urge you to run out to Walmart right now and pick up a package of Depends undergarments.
Hey, why should the incontinent get to watch the E*TRADE babies while you are in line for the pisser? That's what I'm sayin'.

Depends Ain't So Damn Dependable

Lately, I've been getting pretty tired of having to change my pants constantly. It's no fun having to go put on a pair of fresh trousers every time a dog barks or a door slams too loud.
So, the other day, I was watching TV in the nursing home's rec room when one of those Depends commercials came on. You know, the ones with the happy-looking gray-haired couples riding bicycles. They seemed to really be enjoying the diapers, so, figuring it was worth a shot, I headed over to the local Walgreens and picked myself up a 12-pack.

I was in England when the Janet J tit incident happened. They were all, "What's the big deal?"
Sound like someone is establishing his alibi, therefore denying he was the mastermind behind the plan.
Seems the older I get, the more and more painful that nipple-hubcap looks. Gah!
And, yes, I'm the one dork who didn't watch the game or see the ads. I was getting ready for my meetung tomorrow. I figured that was a wee bit more important.
But whatever, I'm a nanny, it's not like I'll be cluless at the watercooler with my coworkers tomorrow. Pffffft! The folks I work with will be talking about Barbies and Pokemon. I'm pretty up-to-date on that. :-)
That should be 'meeting.'
Although 'meetung' sounds fun too.
That should also be 'clueless.'
Egad.
Yes, Sass is happy.
And YES, that's really all it's about.
And...the six pack o' Blue Moon I've had tonight managed to loosen the old fingertips, and guess who wrote a post??
Yup.
Sass.
Zibbs is right, we didn't give a damn.
Of course the infamous "wardrobe malfunction" happened during my beloved Tommy and his team's Superbowl win.
No breasts, just a flash or two of bare AARP gut by The Who :)
