Last night’s Super Bowl was a great game. The Saints really took the ball and ran with it and they certainly ended up kicking some butts on Super Bowl Sunday. The commercials were funny, as usual, the half time show was entertaining. The Who did a good job, but you can tell that they have been aging right along with the rest of us. Their music was right one, the singing – well it left a lot to be desired but the light show was awesome! I’m glad that The Saints took home the victory and I am all ready looking forward to next year’s football season.
You just gotta love how the Internet makes looking at car reviews so much easier. There are many website dedicated to assist consumers with their search for the perfect vehicle. I have been looking at some nice chevy silverado 1500 pics on Thecarconnection.com website that is filled with all the information anyone could ask for on new and used cars. I have always been a Chevy man and I can tell you that they (Chevrolet) is still cranking out some nice looking vehicles. The chevy Volt specs that I stumbled onto there were very interesting and the picture intriguing, to say the least. Check out this 2007 beauty:
I certainly would like to take advantage of the program that has been extended, the Cash for Clunkers program, before it finally comes to an end. A lot of people have taken advantage of this extension and I don’t want to be left out in the cold on the deal. I’m taking this offer seriously and hopefully my tax refund check will go a long way this year and I can use a good portion of it for a decent down payment.
I’ve even taken a gander at the honda element, now you can really fit a good amount of stuff in the back of this sport-utility. I have to say is an unique alternative to the other conventional sport-utility vehicles, with it’s awkward looking boxy shape, along with it’s dent-absorbing plastic body panels, and rear-hinged “suicide” back doors, it’s truly sporty and stands out from all the others. Not sure if that is good or bad in this instance. I do like to be unique but not necessarily standing out from the crowd. The older I get the more I feel the need to blend in most of the times, heck I don’t even want to put any bumper stickers on any of my vehicles any more.
Joe is so excited because his wife gave him two tickets to Manny Pacquiao fight in Las Vegas for March 13th! His wife doesn’t want to go to the fight, but wants to go to Las Vegas. I think that is a clever way to get him to take her to Vegas, don’t you? He’s invited us to join them. My wife isn’t interested at all in the fight either, but she sure is interested in going to Las Vegas!
While Joe and I go to the fight the wives can go to a show or hang out at one of the casinos. I’m sure they can find something to do to entertain themselves!
Although I understand that many people like to hunt, I am glad that hunting season is finally over. I don’t like having to wear blaze orange clothing if I want to go for a walk on my own property out of fear that I might get shot by someone who is half-drunk and hunting on my property without my permission. I also understand that hunting helps to control the deer population and keep many of the deer from starving to death over the winter, but I have to admit that I find it disturbing how many people enjoy killing other creatures! And I really don’t see how it can be considered a sport – the prey are at a serious disadvantage and really don’t have much of a “sporting chance!”
Russ and Gail love to Golf Myrtle Beach. We have been neighbors for about ten years now, and every February they disappear for the entire month to take advantage of one of the many Myrtle Beach Golf Packages that they have found that allows them to play their favorite golf courses. While they are off enjoying their Myrtle Beach Golf Vacations they have my wife go and water their plants a couple of times each week, and we bring their dog and cat over to our house to pet sit for them.
We don’t mind pet-sitting, their dog is a very affectionate Irish Wolfhound with a great personality, and their cat is, well, their cat is a cat! But at least the cat doesn’t scratch up the place or spray the walls, and doesn’t keep us awake crying all night long, so that is good! Russ and Gail send us a postcard from Myrtle Beach, and they always bring back some nice souvenirs, too!
