No, I am not going to liveblog the Super Bowl. Wilson's here, we've got chips and beer, and I'm going to watch the damn game.

I just want to float an idea. That Burger King commercial, with the Busby Berkely babes dressed up like lettuce and hamburger patties, and the lecherous fiberglass monarch? I'm thinking about suing for emotional pain and suffering. Anyone up for making it a class-action suit?

Count me in on the class action lawsuit, Dr. House. Enjoy the rest of the game.

I'm not sure what the goal was for BK with this advertising campaign but I'm sure freaking out the US population wasn't it.

Nice to know *someone's* reading *my* blog, House. Thanks.

I don't know what you're thanking me for, Baylink, but sorry; whoever's reading your blog, it sure isn't me. I don't read my own blog. Let's just say it was a case of Great Minds Think Alike.

(Though like I said, I don't read your blog, so I don't really know if you have a Great Mind. But I'm willing to give you the benefit of the doubt. 'Cause I'm just that kind of guy.)

It just goes to show that the King wasted his money on this ad. Two viewers, one watching specifically for the "art" of advertising and the other watching for the actual football, and what's the first thing that occurs to both of them? If *I* were running BK and spending the big bucks on a Super Bowl Ad, I'd want them to be thinking "I want a Whopper!" instead of "Whoa! Busby Berkely on ketamine!" But what do I know?
