    Dream Interpretation Anyone? 

    I’ve alluded to my recent troubles with my HD projector in here in anticipation of the Super Bowl blogging. After 3 years of dedicated service, the bulb that originally came with the projector finally moved on to the great recycle bin in the sky. Never in those three years did I have a single problem with the bulb and many sporting events, reality shows and home movies were enjoyed. Now it was time to replace this old friend and I searched the internet far and wide (I googled projector bulbs a couple of times). The manufacturer’s brand was more than twice as expensive as I one I found from a ‘reputable’ dealer (reputable meaning employees and friends of the owner of the company must have taken time to write positive feedback). In any case, I ordered the bulb.

    Since then, I have had to send it back twice. The first bulb was dim and would flicker. The second bulb ‘popped’ on day 2. I am now on bulb number three, which arrived yesterday and was installed last night. Early results are mixed…and I fear an impending snap, crackle or pop from this one as well. It was with this mindset that I set my head upon my pillow last night and proceeded to dream…the following…

    Since a projector bulb is clearly not sexy enough for dream fodder, I find myself driving around what seems to be an old European city in a bright red sports car – it may even be a Mitsubishi – which would be the same manufacturer as the projector (side note: perhaps ordering a projector from a company lacking product specialization was my first misstep). I am driving at unsafe speeds and talking on the cell phone to the customer service representative, who is not the faceless person with whom I’ve had discussions in the past, but is instead Bill Nye, the science guy (perhaps, he grew tired of teaching Ellen Degeneres about energy – *anyone, anyone?*). Well, this just in…Bill Nye is a DICK.

    At least in my dream he was. I go on to tell him that my previous two expensive, fast red sports cars malfunctioned and this one was acting wonky as well (wonky being one of my favorite words of late). (More …)

      She might be able to catch better than the Pats right now…

        Maybe they shouldn’t let them score.

    Letting them score. An interesting strategy

    If I cared about either of these teams, this might be pretty exciting.

    Al Michaels just said the law firm has never fumbled. Odds on him fumbling before the end of the game have just tripled.

      That stat was aided this year by The Ass Scratchers. Once I drafted him he was removed from the offense until our season was over.

    If I may make a football related comment: That was a terrible no-call on the obvious interference.

      I was kind of counting on you for the football related comments. Sorry for not letting you in on that. You want to start over?

    Grape Ape cameo may have just surpassed Flava Flav.

      He sure has aged more gracefully than Mr. Flav.

      Really liked the Ferris Griller commercial…. One day your driving a hot car w
      ith a hot girl, the next thing you know you are driving a CRV with a stuffed panda. Is that really a selling point?
