SuperHype

A countdown clock at the official Super Bowl site proclaims the hours, minutes and seconds till the Big Game.Hey, I'm not holding my breath.
To begin with the Super Bowl game itself is never a very exciting game. And this year the Giants have to battle perfection. Watching perfection (aka Tom Brady) is like watching paint dry.
Then there are the commercials. They are fun to watch but now you can call them all up on You Tube or any one of a number of other sites. So, why sit through the whole spectacle?
Oh, the food . . . I almost forgot that.
Well, if you're going to a Big Game party tomorrow (or if you're hosting a party yourself) watch out for the dip. The dip is a breeding ground for bacteria - expecially if someone is double-dipping. Microbiology students at Clemson University have found that three to six double dips transferred about 10,000 bacteria from the eater's mouth to the dip." Ugh!
Maybe it's best to just stay at home, cook a healthy meal and watch an old movie. Or maybe just go out for a long walk. Or maybe just go out to the movies.
