And then swallows this into their system?

Why does Obama give so much time and effort to Fox News when they bash him constantly with lies? They call him a terrorist, socialist, unamerican, etc. and he says "Come on in! We just started dinner! How are the kids?"
How come he never gave that kind of interview to Olbermann or Maddow? Hell even Matthews?

Chicken thighs make better hot 'wings' than wings do, IMO. More meat, less bone, fat and gristle. You have to cook them a little longer, but that's OK.

are one of the great Marketing successes in the past couple decades! Before that, chicken wings were just meat that poor people ate - and most everybody else put those parts in the garbage. But, thanks to KFC and other food and beer marketing companies, everyone now thinks it's a gourmet treat.
Most of the wings are fat and bone, covered by sauce so hot you can't tell you;'e eating garbage! Best thing to do with 'em is thrown them in a big pot and boil 'em to make chix stock.

Anyone know how to efile my 2009 return (I filed an extension for '09, but never completed. I was due a refund) so I can file my 2010 return? Everyone's "free file" online forms seem to be only 2010, and I need last years PIN from the IRS to submit this year's return.

I just took the mess to my local IRS office, along w/ a book to read while I waited. They probably have your answer, and can do the whole thong for you. I always took it in, filled out in pencil, then if anything needed fixing, it was easy.
me-oww!
Looks like I've got to file at least the old one (and likely the new one) on paper. PITA, since I don't want checks being mailed to my old address.
I've never been to a local IRS office. I usually voluntarily avoid places where people who carry handcuffs travail...

Would the Super Bowl be as popular if it took place on a vacant lot with no TV, no sponsors, no million dollar larger-than life celebrities?
No. It would just be a game.
The TV will be turned off.
...that's a nice hair-shirt you're wearing there. Very special, I'm sure.
Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust.
...all of the commercials are lame.
Reader, suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself.
Erm, aren't commercials always lame? That's why they are commercials. Commercial breaks are only good for taking a piss anyway.
Bite my shiny metal ass.

...but the big deal with the Superbowl is supposed to be impressive commercials.
BTW, the much talked about Eiminem commercial was just on and it was extra lame.

I haven't watched football lately. Where is John Madden? Isn't he with Fox? Did he retire? Don't know his politics but I have always enjoyed John Madden and his football passion.

They also showed GW Botch and the woman who tried to teach him English (his wife) too. I threw up in my mouth a little with that sight.

What was with the reading of your declaration of independance before the pregame show? I guess the koch brothers and the teabbagers paid some heavy cash for that. Gotta love faux i guess
Why is this super bowl so damn political? First Obama and BillO, then the DoI? Geez...

I saw the Obama interview, and I was pissed that Obama didn't punch that smarmy **** O'Reilly in the face. Talking over him, cutting him off, smarmy comments like "What was it like going to the White House, because you know, you had no experience at all".
Having Colin Powell read the Constitution is like Larry Flint preaching abstinence and chastity.
I'm also fucking sick of the "If Ben wins, he's redeemed". No. Just like Vick, if you're a degenerate criminal, you don't magically become not a degenerate because you win a game.
And finally, thanks for the Anthem, Christina. I've seen better renditions from tone-deaf children. At least they don't make me feel like I need a shower after they do their thing.

The only thing out of the ordinary was that he didn't scream "CUT HIS MIC" because, well, he had no control of that in the White House.

did anyone else find the audio very crummy for the halftime show?
all i heard was whatever the Peas yelled into their mics, barely any music...
it got better when Usher came out, but still weak...
kudos to wil am i for his shout out to Obama.
good one.
Yeah. I came here to find out if anyone else noticed glitches in the system. Totally. Sucked for the BEP's but they seemed to power through it pretty well. Cool to see. Still miss Janet though too.
Slash is always good to see. Glad he is still alive.

i couldn't believe it took the sound tech(s) so long to do anything about it... if they ever did...
maybe the stadium heard it better... the sight show was ok - not enough wide shots for effect tho.
.. interesting

Whole bank of lights on the "v" in "Love" was out, the sound sucked, and, yeah, was pretty cool to see Slash (and I'm sorry, but Fergie is just hot).

Good game though.

and kind of developed an affinity for the raw-gut-love they have for their beloved Pack... and also a single GB Packers long-sleeved "T" is the ONLY item of sport/team clothing if own... well, I guess that makes me a Packer "fan."
I agree about the half-time show... Sound Mix SUCKED. They're broadcasting a live music segment to a hundred million people around the PLANET... and they BLEW IT!
So what's happening with he game. I have been watching the Black Eyed Peas over and over and over. Awesome.
/snark
Not too bad though. The sound and technical stuff was screwed up but it always id at the Super Bowl. BTW I am not a BEP fan. I'm too old.
but, "Where Is the Love?" is a favorite, and still makes me cry.
The Black Eyed Peas suck.
Yes, but again, Fergie is smokin' hot...
This coming from a certified old-fart hippie, but, nonetheless, doesn't say that often... but there is a short list of ... no questions asked... my fiancee has approved of the few on that list...
Wish the IT and sound guys would have gotten it together, though... would have been a pretty decent show.

is that we have a Superbowl played by two teams from snowy cities and they play in Dallas? WTF happened to the good old days of playing in the raging snow and cold in the home team's home city?
I am sure I missed something during the last decade but I like a good snow bowl!

O'Reilly Obama Interview Shows That President Still Hasn't Changed Course
Fox News - Christian Whiton - 24 minutes ago
Bill O'Reilly's Sunday interview with Barack Obama revealed a president who has not changed course from the path of the last two years—contrary to the conventional wisdom on both left and right in Washington. ...
Christian Whiton as in Whit(e) on...
