Believe it or not I also watched the superbowl mostly to view the highly touted commercials, which as it turned out, were less interesting than the game (at least the first quarter). I was fortunate to miss the half-time show, since los gatos knocked off and broke a couple of bottles of spritzer and wine in the kitchen and I had glass and liquid to clean up. I had hoped for a new commercial from my beloved pillagers, but not so. Oh well
I agree with Maya about Macs -- my own computer is an iBook with Word installed so that Vern can use it for his schoolwork -- which he does and will until we can pick up his HP pc on Wednesday. Us Mac people just laugh at pc salespeople and users. But Vern of course would not be caught dead using any technology which I believe in so that he can maintain his pose of highly intellectual technophobe. His loss, my gain (I wish everything in his world didn't have to be a competition -- maybe that's just men grouse grouse).
A beautiful day in the neighborhood. Time to walk to Bow & Arrow Park at the end of our street to stretch my lungs. Have a great day everyone.

i just have to say that the halftime show was spectacular. and not in that bad superbowl way. no halfexposed publicity stunts. just Prince singing and playing in the pouring rain. by himself. and he can sing and play so well. it was an amazing show, especially the closing song. i was completely surprised. Prince is kind of enigma to me, but it seems that he has somehow evolved into this timeless creature independent of the music industry hype machine. he is impressive, to me at least. as for the weird latin dancers on stage with him, he made dancing girls at the superbowl half-time show seem extraneous, even ridiculous. how do you do that? (seems like i have more to say about the dancing girls than the game. hmmm...)
