I agree that that bet with art is not in the best of taste.  Some things just shouldn't be combined.   :P

I grew up near Pittsburgh, and my Dad and brothers were always big fans of the Steelers and Pirates, so they get my support.  I see they're slightly behind at this point.  Come on, boys!  8)

At any rate, I've been in bed most of the day nursing a head cold and sore throat.  >:(  But PBS has given thought to the poor women out here who have no interest in football and put on a marathon of Jane Austen dramas, so I've been very content.  I'm in the last hour of "Emma" now.  :D

Sorry to hear you are not well, Meryl, I hope you get over it quickly!  Those Austen gentlemen can be medicinal though, can't they?  Wouldn't it help to have a Mr Bingley downstairs full of solicitude as he was for his indisposed guest Jane Bennett, or a Captain Benwick to read poetry to you as he did to Louisa Musgrove during her long recovery?

Yes, indeed!  I can tell you are a man of infinite sensibility.  :-*

I second that! Both the wishes for your quick recovery and the wishes for the solicitous amiable gentlemen close by!

Got a call last night at home after I left the superbowl party early... :laugh:

I won the last part of the pool at the party (cash was given out each quarter), and my take was $45.00 and a trophy.

I didn't even watch the game!   :laugh:

I don't know what I'm doing this Sunday evening.  ???

Ordinarily it sure wouldn't be watching the Superbowl, but with both Tom Brady and Eli Manning playing, maybe I ought to reconsider.  ???  That's almost too much hotness for one football game!  ;D

hey Lynne, if you haven't seen "Wolverine"it is out on DVD and I saw copies of it in the Safeway.  I enjoyed it with a rewatch of the X-men series.


And staying warm is NOT a problem today - we have bright sunshine beating down and I am just getting settled in to writing another chapter of "Agents of the Law"

  HOORAY;;;
 
  I cannot wait Louise.
 
  I am a football fan however.  As long as its a team I care about.  I love the Patriots, and Tom Brady, he is a future  hall of fame shoo in.  He is the best thing in this game.  With the possible exception of Drew Brees, of the New Orlean Saints.   If they can hold the line for him, allow him to do his quarterback magic.  They will win by a fair margin.  If however the front line can't contain the other team, then the Giants, will prevail.. Boooo.. lol I don't take it too seriously however, like some do, but yes I do understand the game, and pick the best players, etc. 

  My real favorite is the  University of Oregon, Oregon Ducks.  College football, Eugene Ore.
