Quick Question

LET'S say you're the sort of person who was tempted to write, "Why's that old lady Madonna the Halftime show?" I think you should first be required to answer the question "Th' fuck are you watching the Super Bowl Halftime Show for in the first place?"

Don't get me wrong; I think the world would be a better place today if Madonna had married Courtney Love. But why does anyone care? Would y'all be happier if it had been Katy Perry up there lip-syncing and sucking?

The glass half full version is: The half time show wasn't The Who singing My Generation.

Best story I got out the super pot was my friend telling me about him and the missus prepping big fixins for the big show and then when big time comes his rabbit ears wouldn't suck in the digital signal good enough for them to view it on their huge 20 inch digital TV (they live in the stiks). Friend desperately tries to position the indoor receiver while the missus seriously abuses his ass (she is the fan). They finally resort to eatin' the fixins and drinking the beer while listening to the big game on the radio.

And me? I was asleep by half time.

I think Madonna and The Black Eyed Peas are the perfect Super Bowl halftime acts. You spend 12 minutes going "WOW! Look at THAT!" and when it's over you go, "so what the hell WAS that anyway?"

That was the limpliest halftime show ever. And that's saying something. But when I saw Cee Lo up there, I thought, hey, he would be great! But not just singing one line or two - he should've been the star. He could be much more dynamic than the purveyor of Vogue.

Online I saw all these rave reviews on the standard media outlets and wondered what they hell they saw, but then realized a critical thought wasn't going to enter their heads unless she messed something up. P.U. Hey, that's it! Maybe they should get the P-Funk All Stars!
