    Dreading the week. Gonna be a busy one w/ realtor, packers, logistics......

    SB was a good time. THOUGH the host didn't have cable and we had to scramble to find / sign up for YouTube TV - ugh......

    Here's to the week!

    Mornin' BBB.

    The SB host did not realized he needed cable to watch the SB ahead of time? LOL, hope the food was good and the beverages flowed freely.
    Good game. Happy for Patrick and Andy. They outcoached the Eagles, IMHO. Jalen Hurts is the real deal and his O-line was super impressive.
    Commercials were pretty good. My favorite was the Busch commercial with Sarah McLachlan. "Sarah, that's a wolf."
    As usual, I wasn't sure what a few of the commercials were really selling.

    BBB OP ;-)

    Good morning.

    Conventional Wisdom appears to be wrong. They're thinking of cremating him and doing a memorial service sometime next week (?). I'm surprised my parents are just rolling with it because cremation doesn't align with traditional Judaism. But I also know the cupboard is bare.

    The game yesterday was a good one. Cecilia made it back from the ballet about 5 minutes in, so it's good I didn't start any shenanigans.

    I'll be trying to get all my plates spinning in the air to stay up today in case I need to be nimble this week.

    Understandable decision, Lou.

    Doc - SB host is from Middle East. He thought he could stream (true statement) - didn't realize he needed to sign up for the particular streaming service. Alas, we got him signed up. Just as they were coming out of the chute and for the National Anthem/Coin Flip.

    Hang in there, Lou. Sorry for the family's loss.

    Good morning BBB friends.

    Continued heart-felt condolences for your family, Lou.

    The game was a good one, and I was glad KC won. Didn't pay much attention to the commercials. I didn't enjoy the halftime show, but the entertainers I enjoy are mostly 40 years past their prime - or dead. Always amazed at how quickly they get all the staging and participants on and off the field.

    No plans, at all, for Valentine's Day, tomorrow. DW says I should go to my woodturning club meeting. I'm thinking not.

    Good morning

    Condolences Lou

    SB was actually a good close game.

    I just walked and talked on my treadmill while on speaker phone with my friend doing the same. Hope to gtg daily for this walking conversation. . And it will motivate me daily. I will walk outside after work. 50F today again they say.

    Have a good day BBB

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • Got up extra early to make breakfast for the Methodist Men. It is always good to get that behind me. I stress over how much food to buy, will enough workers show up, will the speaker show up, will they be interesting, etc.
    • I know it is a stressful time for the family Lou. I hope it all works out.
    • One of the better Super Bowl games I've seen even if I didn't have a favorite team. Two really good young quarterbacks.
    • The Dunkin commercial with Affleck and Lopez was hysterical. The halftime show was the typical bust.
    • Don't argue with Rita, Dave.
    • I've named Skip's new whip Black Beauty.

    Good Afternoon,
    Feeling better, still have a few days of antibiotics.
    Yoga class this morning, power went out for about thirty minutes; routine is kind of set to music caused me to get behind but worked out with only dropping two poses.
    I'm seeing lots of folks going from burial to cremation because of cost. Unfortunately, economics rule.
