Super Sunday is Over, Here Comes Hangover Monday

MelBivDevoe

How about that major sporting event yesterday, huh?  Both, that one team had such an amazing play!  Ok, fine, I only watched the Super Bowl for the halftime show and the commercials.  I spent most of Sunday lying on the couch and watching a "Bring It On" marathon instead.  Try to contain your jealousy.

The biggest news of the night, according to Twitter, was the power outage that derailed the third quarter of the game.  Here are the best tweets of the night - my faves are from Neil deGrasse Tyson.  (BuzzFeed)

Lenny Kravitz was in New Orleans recently (for the big game, perhaps?) when he heard a choir performing one of his biggest hits.  What he did next definitely made their day.  (Entertainment.ie)

Forget flamingos and gnomes - dinosaurs are the cool new lawn ornaments.  Check out Dug the T-Rex - he even likes to dress up for the holidays.  (HuffPo)

So, they've made another Spider-man movie.  I...don't know how I feel about this, and it's probably because I can't bring myself to care.  (Pajiba)

Well, just like everything else in this great country of ours, Chrysler's Super Bowl "Halftime in America" ad has become political fodder.  What's your take on it?  (MSNBC)

We've all overheard someone stating a fact that we know to be completely untrue.  Here are a few doozies.  (Reddit)

Online dating is now the second-most popular way for couples to meet.  The first is still drunk sex followed by an awkward breakfast "date."  What you you mean?  That totally counts as a relationship!  (The Huffington Post)

There Was Football On Last Night?

Yes, of course I watched the Super Bowl, and it was a great game indeed.  Much like your Monday Hot Links, there was action, entertainment, and David Beckham's underpants.  What's not to like?

Here's an interesting write up on how libraries and bookstores have become the new community centers.  Reading it makes me crave a Grande Non-fat, No-whip Caramel Macchiato, though I don't know for certain why.  (New Geography)

The Tea Party is dead?  Oh, let it be true.  I SO need a reason to buy new pumps, and that oughta do.  (The Daily Beast)

Happy Friday my adorable little eclairs!  Let's kick the weekend off with a wee bit of fresh meat, shall we?  Oh, I think so.

Yes.  Zac Efron IS a man.  Why was I the only woman to think so until now?  Good looking out, Glamour.  (Glamour)

See?  Even heathens and non-believers are capable of charity.  So what if the devil made them do it? (Alternet)

An Illinois man who listed President Obama's old car for sale on Ebay failed to receive a single bid.  I'm not sure if it was the million-dollar price tag or the fact that it's a goddamn Chrysler.  (Huff Post Chicago)

I'm on a serious avocado kick lately.  I actually had to check if it was possible to overdose on them, that's how much I'm in love with avocados right now.  I'm not quite sure how this recipe for Eggs Baked in Avocados will feel in my tummy, but by golly, I'm going to try it.  (Babble)

I'll Take My Groundhog With Extra Cilantro, Thanks

Kolby

I'm back, friends and lovers!  It's been a rollercoaster of a few days for me, but the short and sweet of it is that a group of the most amazing people on the planet (also, Mars) got together and presented yours truly with a shiny new laptop on which to pretend to work.  I'm still in shock, and ever so grateful.  There are good people in the world?  No effing way!  So, without further BS, here are your Groundhog Day (don't get me started on that little bastard and his shadow) Hot Links.

If this infographic is a reliable indicator, then we are, like, so totally not alone in the universe.  Someone get Jodie Foster on the horn. (Space)

Touchdown In My Mouth!: I Just Mean Food And Drinks

Pinky McLadybits

I really enjoy football and I look forward to it every Sunday. As most of you well know, this Sunday is Super Bowl XLVI. The New England Patriots will play the New York Giants in Indianapolis and I will cheer for the Giants. If you need to ask why then Tracer hates you. Just so you know.

I also love Super Bowl parties. Beer, chips, finger foods, desserts, beer, what's not to like? Nothing. Nothing is not to like. There are some foods and drinks that I always like to see at a Super Bowl party and I thought I would share those with you. Feel free to chime in with your favorites in the comments. 

Oh, Spoiled Milk! You'll Never Get A Pony Smelling Like That!

I haven't been to Las Vegas since I got married there in 2005. We still plan to return for a more leisurely, child-free week. Perhaps we can check out some of the spots in this article. (GQ)
