Sunday night – vicarious pleasure

Great weekend.. for one reason or another, I never got around to doing all the work i’d piled up for the weekend.. instead I relaxed, hung ou with diane and tried to shake the cold i’ve been carrying around.

shot of nostalgia nostalgic lunch today when our friend Dave Pino, the head sound guy from the Colony, showed up for lunch. He lives in LA.. but was in NH filming a Bernie Rally for a show he’s doing for Showtime Network. We cut up on family , life and friends. He told us some great stories about miking up the candidates for interviews.. he also told us some of the other cool things he’s done since our two season involvement with the Colony. He did 3 seasons of Naked and Afraid…. and several seasons of ‘The Apprentice ‘. (yes.. he really is that bad in person)

it was great watching about the old days and old friends..

Spent the afternoon at the Generator seeing friends, then this evening headed to jen and TIms  to watch the Super Bowl. It was surprisingly fun..

<football fans.. stop reading here.. my knowledge of the game is pathetic>

Neither of us are into sports.. and before tonight I could not have told you who was playing.. or where the game was.. even as an outsider, it was really fund watching the technology used in the filming of the game, the halftime show (wow) and the commercials. I felt like fast forwarding through all the parts where the guys were throwing the ball back and forth.. but I did get caught up in the vicarious pleasure of it. Payton Manning.. is a name i’ve always known.. but I didn’t know much about him.. i learned a couple of minutes into the game that he was 39 years old.. relatively account for football.. and that he had won 199 games.. something only one other human had done.. If his team one tonight he could retire as  the winningest guy in football.. .. he looked like a nice guy .. so I started to hope he would win.. In the end he did !.I don’t remember much about the actual game, but  It was  really fun to get caught up in the vicarious pleasure of seeing him get this milestone..

I may not be a football fan but I’m still smiling..!

nite all, nite sam
