  • Aliens have taken over my TV apparently

    There's lots of men in funny helmets running round crashing into each other and giving odd codes like 'third down,moving forward to take three after second and 12'.
    I think it's some sort of invasion...

    Husband: What's happening in the game?

    Me: Sometimes they throw the ball and someone else catches it and they all run. They're working very hard and I am proud of every one of them.

    Husband:... hopeless.

      Shoulda watched the version where they use puppies instead. Word has it that one of them crapped the field on live TV this year.

        That's about my level of understanding of that game too.

        Fortunately for me, my husband shares my utter indifference to sports. Going to be some sulky types at irk today though.

        I've heard the puppy version is quite adorable, but if I got Hallmark (don't currently have cable) I'd be watching the kitten/cat edition.

            Wait a couple weeks, their ground craft will start chasing each other around in circles for hours at a time.

              You can always rely on Youtube to provide an explanation of these alien phenomena.

              Here it is.

                Back in the day when I was a reporter/photographer on a small weekly paper, editor-of-the-moment (in the 10 years I worked there, we had 4 editors) sent me to cover a local football game. Note: football is not a terribly big deal in most areas of Ontario.

                So off I go. A couple of hours later, I return.

                Editor (himself a former football player): "So, how'd it go?"

                Me: "How the HELL was I supposed to photograph that??"

                Editor: "Wut??"

                Me: "They all huddle up, then somebody throws the ball, then they move down the field; then they huddle up again, then somebody throws the ball again, then they move down the field again ..."

                Editor:

                I walked out of his office to the rhythmic sound of him slamming his head against his desk.

                For some reason, that was the last time he sent me to cover a local football game ...
