Seem to have hit a dry spell on technical shorts, or maybe I'm just not holding my mouth right.
My wife is also a sports fan, though she is not nearly as much of a fanatic as Busted's is.
We watched the game, or most of it anyway. It's gotten to be that it's almost as important as Christmas or the Fourth of July. I still kind of wiped out from my excursion into Oxy land, so I was content to just sit there and watch it flow by. We watched the broadcast version, for free, using an antennae. All those fancy services fell on their face when the big day arrived. I would say bad things about them but it's not worth the effort, and what would it gain me?
Most of the game involved kicking - punts and field goals. It wasn't until the second half that anyone started making any touchdowns. Many of the Patriot's quarterback's passes seemed off the mark - sometimes too long, sometimes not accurate.
I caught a few minutes of the halftime show. It looked they imported a small forest onto the infield. Bad Bunny was singing in Spanish, and the tune was meh. Did nothing for me. I went and got something to eat.

I seem to recall that we sent a bunch on warships, like an armada, over to the Persian Gulf recently. They might still be there.
C-17 is a big aircraft. 112 is like half of our fleet.
Seems like there are wars being fought all over the world. Everyday we hear about people being killed in all kinds of places. War seems to have become business as usual. Not surprising since people seem to be naturally disagreeable. Looks like we might be getting involved in another mid-east cluster fuck. I can only hope that this one turns out better than the last eleventy-zillion.
