Lola at the Coffee House, Cafe 101

Sorry I'm late, Lola.

There's been a real turnaround from Super Bowls past. The game keeps getting better and the ads keep getting worse.

Can anyone tell me how many instant erection prescription pills are currently on the market? I have truly lost count...

CBS doesn't run advocacy ads (but I saw at least three or four about drug use and smoking and toning down domestic violence)?!?

Michael Powell comes out all sputtering and indignant this morning about Janet's metal sun pastie?

The moral of the Super Bowl seems to be: let's gorge our fat selves on beer, Pepsi, Doritoes, pizza, and Taco Bell, and then pop a Cialis so we can it get up (because we're so obese we can't normally) and then freak out about Janet Jackson's titty!

Somethin' is wrong, all right, and it's gettin'more obvious every day...

edit: changed Colin to Michael

Right on PDiddie..!!!

Did anyone notice the Jose Cuervo ad to the right of these msgs?? I thought kids used this site.

I'm thirsty, I think I'll go have a margarita - or four.

osso, the horse commercial is called "bud light barbecue"

Pdiddle,

there are three

the drug abuse ads were quite good, I thought

you didn't see the PETA ad? Hilarious

I luv the super bowl - the spirit of the game - people having a great time -
beer commercials - car and truck ads - food - beer - friends - interviews -
the way the NFL works in their communities - the entire day and events -

An absolute blast!

Lola,

Texas Stadium amazing! Ya all do football proud!

I figured that, Stradee, but I didn't have the plug in (or some such) to get the commercial..

Well, this was a good experience, I might even watch again next year.

osso, hope next years game is as good!

Was able to view the ads - although not very clearly.

The ads will probably air during the year, so we'll be able to view them again

In England we put our Superfruit in the Superbowl-is it anything like that ?

hiama,

Kinda like that ~

Only in America, we call what you've described as ~ "treats"

oops, forgot to ask ya Blath ~ have you not heard of the San Jose Sharks?

Ice Hockey at it's finest! I've a jacket don't ya know.

Cannot forget the Sacramento Kings! Hoops, tall guys wearing equally tall athletic gear, and the best thing is - Championships!

hiama, In England, what other sports do you guys have along with rugby and soccer?

Royalty watching is a popular sport - and the players never disappoint !

the boob tube..........party hat, right, Dys.......very funny.

Right, PDiddie and Danon..........Janet Jackson's titty.......big *ucking deal! I thought Nelly's crotch grabbing especially tasteful. Artful, really.

HIAMA.........fruit bowl, that's correct, exactly. You're such a sweetie.

Gautum......royalty watching has to beat Nelly's crotch and Janet's tit. Laugh

All in all, the game was fun..everyone all excited and all. And the ads were entertaining. It's the first time I've watched the game in years. Good cultural experience.

Lola, I wholeheartedly agree, the game is what it was all about. Not, the tragic attempts at attention grabbing. Although, in Janet's case I believe it was strictly business - days prior to new album release and everybody is still talking about her.

Canadian perspective...

Now and again, I'm tempted to think well of Colin Powell, to forgive him for being an ass-licker to his superiors regardless of what those superiors say and do. But then, I reflect on his son's values and behavior.

The increasing ownership and control of major media in fewer corporate hands is as clear a threat to democracy in the US as anything which has arisen in my lifetime. And it has been Michael's project to facilitate this re-writing of FCC regulations. And here, the stupid bastard gets all upset about a bloody nipple.

I really like Americans. But...but...as a cultural entity, your country can be just plain nuts.

I loved the game, which had some of the prettiest passing and receiving I've seen, and in the context of a well balanced struggle between two equal examples of excellence.

The halftime show was a huge cliched snooze. How many more years will Jackson think she's at the leading edge of jerky-arm choreography? The dancers, both genders, were exquisitely beautiful, and they were wasted. Kid Rock, what talent he has, and there is some, just did his tedious thing (a Little Rascal under the influence of LSD and Satan), and Nellie really ought to be packing groceries or working in a phone room pushing carpet cleaning specials thus giving hands and voice some good reason to be operating.

The nfl Championships is what the game is all about - the celebration, the players, and people enjoying the day. Most folks could care less if someone's pastie exposed - or a guy dancing on the field wearing a g-sting and a smile (hilarious btw).

The newsmedia's rating concerns is what promotes the continuing saga of Janets pastie, fgs. And also how the next NFC/AFC championship network will not allow MTV to choreograph half-time festivities.
Politics and conservatism at its best.

The game was extrodinary, the athletic ability of each team, the individual dedication of the players, and the opportunity for seeing some of their goals achieved, is what Sunday was about.

The newsmedia would do itself a service promoting a balanced view, instead of concentrating on the negative. America was having just to much fun watching the championships. Thanfully, not all Americans depict what the newsmedia portrays.

Stradee, you are my heroin.

Errrrr, actually never touched the stuff.

What stuff????? I dun no.

Whatcha doin?

""Nothin!!"" <<quite a few octaves over my usual bass.. lol>>

Lola,
I am so retentively unretentious. The "lady" next to me in my avatar is standing outside Schloss Belvedere in Vienna. Inside are major works of the artist G. Klimt - - - http://www.klimt.at/en/default2.asp?h=30&s=1 - - - among many others. Better site= http://www.expo-klimt.com/1_5.cfm

The avatar photo was a moment in our travels -
Patti said 'Let me take a picture of you. We never get pictures with you in them.'
I said, 'Well, ok, if you insist. Where should I stand?'
She said, 'Stand there next to those mames - err, I meant Dames - err,'
So, out of approximately 1400 +/-, photos, I am in about three.
This is one of them.

(The above is almost a work of fiction, having almost no relation to any or all event(s) in the real world - except for the Klimt painting, entitled, 'The Kiss')

Nuttin' dontcha know

Hi Stradee!

I always knew when the kids were up to no good. They always said, 'Nothin!!' to my question, 'what are you doing?'

Clear sign of guilt. = 'Nothin'

(grin)

Danon,

"What!?" is the answer I'd get from my kids = "you accuse me of everything"!

Whatever it is I'm sposed ta be doin', I swear to you, I an't guilty! And that's the truth



Thanks for posting the beautiful artwork, Danon. Georgous!

You're very welcome re the painting. Klimt is best viewed in person at the Belvedere. Photo repros do not do his work justice.

I would trade you kids, but, mine are all gone. I have eleven g'kids. None are close.
