Worst Ever

 

Admit it, the Super Bowl sucked. I couldn’t have been more bored if I was watching “The Bachelor” marathon. First of all it was New England again, for I believe the twentieth straight year. The Rams looked like they didn’t belong there…probably because they didn’t belong there.

The commercials were boring, the half-time show was a joke…it was awful. No Danny DeVito as an M&M challenging people to eat him. No Lady Gaga flying in from the top of the stadium…Nothing but the Rams punting.

Even in blow out games, at least one team was at least scoring or there was a decent half-time show with costume malfunctions.

My friend Mark Petrucelli suggested bringing back “Up With People” for the half-time show. Would you have noticed the difference?

If you’re unaware of “Up With People,” they’re a bunch of clean cut kids singing crappy upbeat songs with a positive message. How could that have been worse than Maroon 5?

Who Cares?

 

It’s supposed to be a bonus holiday. Even if you’re teams not in it, you have an excuse to drink and stuff your face with chicken wings, pizza and nachos. A much needed day to break up the brutal months of January and February.

Not this year though. I have no interest in this game. I’m tired of watching New England every year. Of course their obnoxious fans aren’t tired of this. When you can make Philadelphia fans seem like decent human beings, you’re despicable.

Maybe you’ll be watching the game to root against the Patriots, like we do most years. This year you’ll be cheering on the Los Angeles Rams, which is more than they’ll be doing in L.A.

The Big Storm?

 

January 19, 2019

 

I’m hand writing this by candlelight. This is a result of the power outage caused by the snow storm raging outside. Hopefully it will be days and not weeks before the power is restored and I will be able to post this online. Thankfully we have enough milk, eggs, bread and toilet paper to get us through until June.

Yeah right…what a rip off! It was all we heard for a week. The big storm coming at us for the weekend. No weather person would go on record and tell us exactly how much snow we would get. Only that it was going to be a lot.

“We’re going to get at least this much and maybe more.”

I should’ve realized from all the sleazy club owners I’ve worked for through the years. You never get the more.

So with the big storm coming Saturday, the stores were packed with panicked shoppers on Friday. Everybody was stocking up with enough supplies to last until summer when we could once again leave our homes. Can you explain why in the hell anybody has to buy rolls of toilet paper by the gross?

That’s Why She’s Manager

That’s Why She’s Manager

 

It was a few days before Christmas…yeah, I know that was like a month ago, but this is still aggravating me. My wife had sent me on a special mission. She had received a Starbucks gift card as a Christmas gift and asked me to pick up a bag of the Christmas blend.

That seems simple enough. I don’t go into Starbucks unless it’s the only place to get coffee but, we had the gift card. All I had to do was go into Starbucks, grab a bag of the coffee she wanted and take it to the register to pay.

As I studied the racks of coffee I saw Sumatra, Veranda, House, Pikes Peak , French Roast, Peakless Pike …I think that’s decaf, everything but Christmas blend. Maybe they were sold out. Then I spotted a bag next to the register. They must keep them behind the counter.

There was only one person in line. After they got their order, I walked up to the counter, grabbed the bag and told the coffee girl…Oh, I’m sorry, the barista…I wouldn’t want to be politically incorrect and upset some idiot.
