And also, it *is* the last Sunday in January, right? When did that change happen?
I have no idea. I just looked at TCG and said, "Is the Superbowl this week?" and he said, "No, next week." And my Superbowl knowledge ends there.
It's called a blaster, Will, a word that tends to discourage experimentation. Now, if it were called the Orgasmater, I'd be the first to try your basic button press approach.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

There's always a week between the last playoffs and the Superbowl. What's new this year is slotting the Pro Bowl into that slot, rather than doing it the week following. Which means that any Pro Bowlers from the SB teams won't play, but I guess also means the PB won't disappear into a black hole the way it usually does. Or that's the hope anyway.

Yay, Confirmation, Seska! (Confirmed Seska?)
Tep, much doggy ~ma for the Dalmie. When that happened to Mooshu last year, it was basically explained as a transient ischemic attack-- later on, of course, we discovered it was probably the first sign of his diabetes, but no one thought to check his blood sugar at that time.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
OK, not babysitting today. My friend called me and said that her husband's cousin can watch the baby, and I know that getting over there will be hell on my ankle, so I'm staying in and resting.

Congratulations Seska!

That sounds like the female bonding scene of a romantic comedy.

The Pro-Bowl would be more fun if they turned it into a flag football game. Nobody plays full out in the Pro Bowl for fear of injury anyway.
