One for the thumb
Mike Holmgren, on the sidelines, playing a chessmatch with the opposing sideline, fighting to win the game in the final moments of the Super Bowl...wait, does he know what down it is? Oh, yeah, I'm sorry, that was a different Super Bowl.
I realize this is my second post today, but it has been a pretty busy week. So much has happened that I want to blog about. First of all, you will notice a new sign of the apocalypse. An Italian politician has promised not to have sex until election day. Ummm, yeah. Also from Italy, an atheist has sued a local priest for stating the existence of Christ as a fact. Read the article here and tell me what you think. It is probably worthy of a full post, but I want to hear your thoughts first.
And the new definition of irony: a president with democratically imperialistic goals, achieves democracy in a struggling Arab nation, only to have them democratically elect radical Muslim terrorists as their leaders. Beautiful.
And, in light of last year's halftime wardrobe malfunction, (see: Nipplegate) Super Bowl and ABC officials decided to have the Rolling Stones perform the halftime show. I think that is because Mick Jagger is so old and ugly, even Justin Timberlake wouldn't try to expose his nipple. But then again, how old is Janet Jackson?
And at long last--Fabio has returned. He was in a commercial during the third quarter. I salute you, oh picture of masculinity.
Congrats, Pittsburg.

I think you left out Stevie Wonder—he had quite the little spectacle before the game. And what about the "Star-Spangled Baner"? That was certainly interesting as well. The moment of silence? The introduction of former Super Bowl MVP's? I need your take on the rest of the game.
I actually was watching that 70's show pretty much all the way up until the Star Spangled Banner. That, however, continued the tradition of trying to make every Super Bowl a more burgeoning spectacle than the last. They may have taken that too literally, however. The marketing focus groups meant bigger deal, as in more stars and glitz, not as in more 400 pound Motown has-beens. Forgive me, I mean Motown legends.
Anyway, the real tragedy of the Star Spangled Banner was, how many chinchillas had to die to cover Aretha in fur? Seriously. I'm surprised they aren't on the endangered species list just after Sunday night.
YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME?! Well, one thing's for certain: presupposition will be the law of that courtroom (and the jurors). If the man attempts to prove that Christ didn't exist and the Bible conflicts, he can certainly twist the fact to make it appear as such (people have been doing it for the last...oh wait, 2,000 years!). I still can't believe a courtroom is even considering the question of Christ's existence.... Wow. We're definitely not in Kansas anymore.
