Cereal Bowl XXXIX

Right. I've just been exposed to several hours of Super Bowl Commercials, and I think I could use a little deprogramming. If you're feeling it too, simply repeat after me:

I am not my phone.
I am not my car.
I am not my job.
I am not my shoes.
I am not my Burger King sandwich.
I am not an evolved monkey (you can debate me on that one later).

I am a luminous being with countless possibilities at my fingertips. My end is beyond my control, but my destiny and my happiness are mine and mine alone, and no amount inanimate objects can truly make my life better or more meaningful.

Whew. I feel better now. How bout you?

Moving on. The Super Bowl came and went. The game was decent, but I've already forgotten the names of like every player, and I'm having trouble remembering which teams played. Just not a sports guy. Anyway, the important part is I gained about 5 pounds eating junk food, and I ate more Pork Rinds than the human body is designed to digest. Rock.

Post Super Bowl was the Preview/Debut of "American Dad". It's (obviously) by the team that brought you "Family Guy", and the humor is pretty much along the same lines. For the most part I enjoyed the premise and characters more than the actual show. The family goldfish, who has the brain of an East German Olympic Ski Jumper and is attracted to the wife, is definately my favorite, although the whiney, overweight alien is definately a plus as well. Not bad. Now, if only Fox will put it on at a time I can watch.

You know, I remember thinking I bet Joe and the boys would like this, and this morning I remembered you only get Fox. Score. Personally, though, I hope they send the alien the fuck home.

As for the rest of it, I really only felt the need to dip my cats in some spaghetti sauce, then invest a little money.

Man, you think you're five pounds were bad....today at Slim-A-Thon I weighed in at 240. Of course, I did have boots & gear on.

The best Super Bowl commercials were the MC Hammer one and the Bud Light one with the pilot jumping out of the plane.

Oh yeah...EAGLES vs PATRIOTS.
