super bowl February 6th, 2012
Aww, boo hoo Pats fans! Sorry you lost to the Giants in the Super Bowl. Again. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t like the Giants, but no one likes New England, so last nights outcome was all one could have hoped for, especially Bradshaw’s slow butt-roll into the end zone. Classic!
We watched the game at our neighbors place, with the main emphasis of the night being the food theme – everything deep fried. Of next order of importance was the halftime puppy bowl, funny commercials, then the Madonna halftime show, and then finally the actual football game. I made jalepeno poppers (photo above) stuffed with goat cheese, cream cheese, cheddar cheese, bacon, and topped with Panko bread crumbs. They were a hit, and not as spicy as they’d seem like they’d be, but still some kick.
I was also introduced to the concept of fried macaroni and cheese balls, above, which were every bit as delicious as they’d seem. By the time the deep fried Oreo’s and bananas were coming out to be served, I was just too full.
This evenings agenda = go for a loooong run.

This posting and the first comment reminded me of a joke..
Four people, Smart-Aleck Sid, Billy-Bob, Lunatic-Lori and Dolittle-Dave died and went to heaven.
At the pearly gates, they were met by St. Peter, who explained that although it was late and God had retired for the evening, he
had asked Albert Einstein to show them around so they wouldn’t get bored before they met God in the morning. After Einstein had
introduced himself to Slim, he asked, “By the way, Slim, what was your IQ when you were alive?”
“159″, said Smart-Aleck Sid.
“Great!”, said Einstein. We’ll discuss my general theory of relativity, maybe a little unified field theory and the New England Patriots as I show you around.”
“What an exciting opportunity!”, said Smart-Aleck SId.
Einstein then introduced himself to Billy-Bob, and when he was done he said, “Tell me, Billy-Bob – what was your IQ when you were alive?”
“141″, said Billy-Bob.
“Good,” said Einstein. “If you’d like, we can discuss a little mathematics, philosophy and the Baltimore Ravens as I point out the heavenly sights.”
“Nothing I’d like better!” was Billy-Bob’s reply.
Einstein then turned to Lunatic-Lori introduced himself and ask her what her IQ was when she wrote that post dissing the New England Patriots.
Lunatic- Lori replied it was lower then 100 that day as I was not thinking clearly.
OK said Einstein we can discuss the Maryland Redskins
Lastly Einstein introduced himself to Doolittle-Dave, he asked, “What was your IQ when you were alive, Dolittle-Dave?”
“58″ said Dolittle-Dave.
Punching him on the arm, Einstein said, “Hey, Bubba – How ’bout them New Jersey Gaints!”
