This just in! Madonna will be the performer at the 2012 Super Bowl! Picture it if you will. Thousands of beer bellied; hoagy eating; trucker hat wearing dudes dancing to Vogue. Yeah. It’s odd to me too. This is a rock and roll crowd – or maybe country. Didn’t they learn from the Black Eyed Peas gong show last year? The only good image this stirred up for me? The annual poutine bar at my friend’s Super Bowl party. Right on!
If you heard a group ‘YES’ from the cool kids in your office today, more than likely they had just read that Arrested Development is coming back for ten new episodes and a feature film. I have never watched it but it’s at the top of my list next to Dexter, Curb Your Enthusiasm and The Wire. I’m sure I’ll get to it by 2012. I know I’ll love it though because David Cross is in it. He guest starred in my favourite half hour of TV comedy ever – an episode of Just Shoot Me. If you recognize this video…you’ll know of what I speak? Anyone??
Last night marked Andy Rooney’s last goodbye on 60 Minutes. Sure he can be a grumpy, opinionated old dude but when you think about it – he truly was the first v-blogger! He said in his last video that he was so blessed to be paid to tell people his thoughts and how lucky he is for it. have to agree with him 1000% on that. I’ll miss Andy Rooney. Listening to him makes me think of Sunday’s in front of the tube with my mom and dad. It was comforting. No more. Happy retirement Andy. But as he said, writers can never retire. Here is clip if you missed it!
