Super Bowl XLII

So tomorrow is the Super Bowl. Things I know about the tomorrow's game: It's in Glendale, AZ. It's a football game.

(chirp, chirp)

Nope, don't really know much. So I'm looking it up. Some things I've learned:

Apparently double dipping 4-6 times can transfer about 10,000 bacteria from the eater's mouth to the dip or salsa. So unless you want to make out with everyone in the room, put your dip on your own plate and make sure everyone else does to. Perhaps appoint a double-dipper detector. Probably someone female since guys don't usually notice they are double-dipping.

Halftime entertainment will be provided by Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers. (who?) No wardrobe malfunctions likely!

The Sun City Poms will be performing. The youngest member is 66. They come complete with tiny sequined outfits, pom pons, and vericose veins. Only in Arizona! http://www.sunaz.com/scpoms/

The idea that city sewer systems will fail due to millions of viewers simultaneously heading to the bathroom during commercial breaks is an urban myth, according to Snopes.com.

Along with the usual beer, pepsi, car and snack food commercials, we'll be graced by commercials from Go-Daddy.com and Victoria's Secret. Actually, Go-Daddy.com's commercial is a commercial to get you to go watch the real commercial online. Brilliant since it's a web hosting/domain name registry. $2.7 million will buy 30 seconds of air time, so it's no wonder the commercials will be shown endlessly on youtube.com and corporate websites!

Oh - and the teams playing are the New England Patriots and New York Giants. I feel a nap coming on.
