Super Bowl Ads--Part I

Geico Cavemen--held my attention, but no good punchline





Acura MDX--BO-RING Give me something good. It's the Super Bowl





Comcast--I would have never been able to keep a straight face while filming that. As a mother of sons, I can't wait till the day I can freak them out like that. If kids aren't for hazing, what good are they??





Does Howie Long have hair plugs??








American Idol--What's with all the Simon Cowell winking--and chest hair??


Live Blogging the Ads

Just a few more seconds and we get to my favorite part of the Super Bowl.

So far I haven't been disappointed. Folks at this party seem to like the Tide Stainstick commercial the best.

Personally, I loved the Diet Pepsi Max.

Be back in a minute with my commercial report. Are you ready to love Justin??

Perfectly...

Clean margins!!!

Many days I look at the news, and I want to go and bury my head in the sand. What kind of world have we created for our children?? We work hard to teach them to play fair and be kind to others and then I look around at the adults in the news and wonder what role models they have.

And then I read WhyMommy and the hundreds of bloggers who have been supporting her throughout her battle with breast cancer and I breathe a sigh of relief. There are good people in the world. And their energy and love and caring for another they've never met renews my faith in the possibilities for good.

Susan has written so many posts over the past eight months that have inspired me, but this one really spoke to me--made me cry. So to Susan I bestow my nomination for the January 08 Perfect Post Award.
