Super Bowl Review

 First and foremost, I was happy that the Eagles won and the Chiefs lost.  It's no secret that I do not care for Mahomes and Kelce.  So I was happy with the Eagles winning.

Second, in my opinion, the half-time show sucked beyond suckdom.  There will never be a half-time show that can hold a candle to when Prince performed.  My second favorite half-time show was when the Rolling Stones performed, and you had to wear cardboard 3D glasses to watch the special effects.

Third, the commercials were lackluster.  My favorite was Bosch tools, with Antonio Banderas and an actor playing awesome WWE wrestler Randy "Macho Man" Savage.

Better luck for viewing pleasure with Super Bowl 2026.

Super Sunday

 It has been a great Super Sunday.  The Old Man and I both had a great night's sleep and slept in a bit this morning.  We enjoyed blueberry muffins and awesome coffee while reading the newspaper.  We watched a great live-streaming service from church, and then chilled.  We had one of the best thin-crust pizzas for late lunch today and now we are chilling again.  I hope we will not be too full of pizza to have homemade queso tonight, but if we are, no big deal - we will have it another time.  It sure has been a relaxing Sunday.

Good Luck Day

 I am very happy to report that I was in and out of the County Clerk's office this morning in 55 minutes.  I got the Ranger and Odyessy tags renewed and got the Old Man's handicapped permit renewed at the same time.  I was expecting at least a two hour wait, but was happy when they announced "rapid renewal" for people that just needed their car registrations and handicapped permits.  Thank you to Bobby Holsclaw, our Jefferson County Clerk for having efficient and fast offices.

Typical Luck

 Pray for me, America.  Tomorrow morning I will be at the County Clerk's office when they open at 8:30 to get everything taken care of for my vehicle registrations and for the Old Man's handicapped parking placard.  I called the clerk's office yesterday morning, and was told I could just scan and email my proof of insurance cards to them and all would be good.  Not so.  I emailed them to the address the woman gave me and it was kicked back twice.  I did an online chat with the Clerk's Office, and they said they can't accept the insurance cards online.  Believe me when I tell you I wanted to shoot the laptop.  But I digress.  I will be there when they open at 8:30 tomorrow morning and get that taken care of, along with renewing the handicapped placard.  And rest assured I will be for sure masked up as I sit in the waiting room. 

Stay tuned.

Quiet, Please

 All morning and afternoon we have been annoyed by the incessant crowing of the six roosters withing a half mile from us, and from the loud dog barking from next door.  If it weren't for being able to hear the Old Man if he said something to me, I'd for sure put in my ear plugs.

I think it's going to be a long afternoon and night.

Go Back Home, Phil

On the news this morning, they reported that Punxutawney Phil saw his shadow, predicting six more weeks of winter weather.  Phil needs to get back in his hole or else he's liable to find himself full of buck shot.
