These Are The Things I Think About -- Jan 28th-Feb3rd

It’s Superbowl Sunday. And a tough reminder from NFL history, it’s been 19 years since the Buffalo Bills lost their 4th straight Superbowl appearance, in a row. This is notable as a rare sports story even worse then the Leafs Stanley Cup drought. 

The end of an era, the series finale of 30 Rock aired on Thursday. It was a very fine finale I might add, well done 30 Rock, you will be missed…Anywho, in tribute, Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream has created a 30 Rock flavour. My suggestion for a name: “Good God Lemon, this is good!”, not bad right?!…Ben & Jerry’s went with the very fittingly “Liz Lemon”, it’s a lemon Greek frozen yogurt with a blueberry and lavender swirl. 

Barbara Walters has been hospitalized with Chicken Pox; she never got the illness as a kid. My guess, look for Chicken Pox to be featured later this year in her “10 most fascinating illnesses of 2013”…Who will be the surprise number one?! 

Pornstar Ron Jeremy suffered an aneurysm and rushed himself to hospital this week. I hear it was quite the situation when he arrived. They got him out of his clothes and on a bed, nurses were working on him all over, the whole time reassuring him “it’ll be ok, we'll take care of your buldge. Just tell us where it hurts, we’ll make it better”…You know, kind of like an opening scene to many of his movies.

Get this, 9 former “American Idol” contestants are suing the show, alleging racism. I too want to sue American Idol, not for racism though, but because it sucks and is ruining music. Admit it, my case is looking stronger then those contestants’ does! 

A 19 year-old girl in Sherbrooke Nova Scotia (pronounced: Narva Scartia in your head of course, ha!) recently fell asleep in a McDonald's drive-thru. Turns out she was passed out drunk. Rightfully so, the cops were called. I hear when they arrived they served her a McDUI.

And finally, more Mcs & Macs from Scotland (technically it’s Old Scotia, or Scotia is it not?…wow, look at us, learning some history). To increase the number of people borrowing books, a library in Scotland is now offering users free pole-dancing classes. Sounds hot right! A sassy librarian jumping up on stage strutting her stuff. But let’s remember, this is Scotland, any guys could be wearing kilts...Hey MacDonald, I can see your Caber!

--Oh, P.S. It’s no cousin Eddie for Canada. Announced this week, Canadian immigration officials have denied actor Randy Quaid's request for permanent resident status. This of course gives a perfect excuse to share a Cousin Eddie classic!, enjoy:
