It's a slow start to the Monday after the big game, but not because of too many beers. My hangover is from big game hype overload. It's kinda like the feeling after the holidays have come and gone and and you're a little bummed because you never did get that Red Ryder BB Gun. I have that same feeling today after the lack of entertainment I really cared about.... the commercials. Now, don't get me wrong, there were a few that sparked my fancy, but not nearly the many belly laughs I was hoping for. For me, Anheuser-Busch seemed to come out on top, my fav being the auctioneer wedding. For my esteemed co-worker Alan, I believe it was the return of Robert Goulet in the Emerald Nuts Ad, however, his new favorite Goulet ring tone he discovered probably has more mileage than the actual commercial.

Even though the commercials left me wanting more, I have to be thankful for some great Superbowl XLI highlights.... The opening return for a touchdown by Da Bears.... (had to go for the Bears since I was eating and drinking on their fans dime :) the Prince halftime show (come on , it's Prince, enough said) the commraderie of friends gathering for yet another excuse to throw back some beers......but now, my greatest highlight is my new Goulet ringtone that let's me know my friends are calling..bring on Superbowl XLII!!!

Yup, even the Family Circus is bloging (at least Billy is!). Maybe we need to recruit Billy, we could always use a few more characters around here, especially those who appreciate the power of the blog as a marketing tool!

We have long enjoyed Daisy's Friday visits to the office over the past year; Daisy is my Golden Retriever. Two weeks ago I found a stray 1yr old puppy by my house - a Great Pyrenees - my family contacted all the vets and posted signs around the neighborhood....no one has called. My family has welcomed AnnaBelle with open arms and smiles! The guys at the office like her too :) Click Here To View Pics Of Daisy and AnnaBelle you will see that the two dogs are wild and crazy together!

This is for everyone sitting in a box right now.

Fortune Magazine is running an article about how the Inventor of the Cubicle regrets his invention.

The cubicle was not born evil, or even square. It began, in fact, as a beautiful vision. The year was 1968. Nixon won the presidency. The Beatles released The White Album. And home-furnishings company Herman Miller (Research) in Zeeland, Mich., launched the Action Office. It was the brainchild of Bob Propst, a Coloradan who had joined the company as director of research.
