Is Tomato Basil a player?

For those of you who missed any or all of the Super Bowl commercials, here is your chance to see them. Super bowl ads, but try to get some work done

One of the best is the donkey Bud ad.

I cannot repeat enough that the Carl's Jr. ad with the hottie riding the mechanical bull to the tune of Foghat was clearly the outright winner. Of possibly all time.

Go here, follow links to "on the TV" in upper right corner

What Julie did on the challenge was totally not kosher.

I really do not like Julie. I used to think she got a bad rap, but editing or not she comes across as a total bitch.

I never saw Veronica's season but she is pretty hot. A total skank, but hot.

I can see myself hanging out with the Miz. We could audition for Tough Enough together.

Darrell is the effing bomb. I love that guy. I want to invite him to my next party.

dont watch Real World so I cant help. Lex- I remember Salon had this great line about how he thinks he is the ruler of the world while he is actually a middle management guy or somehting. he was on the colby - tina survivor right? but i thought he placed second. confused

the red haired crooner kid is great especially since he is so yougn. i am a little annoyed they didnt spend more time in the deliberation room. i dont know why the country girl got booted. pretty and great. i guess simon and randy hate country

Lex was kissing Ethan's ass in Africa, not Colby's ass (where was he? Outback?).

Ethan is still and always the best looking Survivor ever. God I hate Richard Hatch and his naked ass. Almost enough to boycott the show until he's gone.

That's what happened to the Mississippi gal who sang about the gay boyfriend--she remembered all her words, her song was funny, they told her it could be a country hit, then BAM! they cut her.

Who the hell wants a country american idol? Shania Twain? Hot. I'm okay with her. Everyone else? Who cares?

My favorites are Fantasia ("my lips are big, but my talent is bigger"--I was bummed when they cut her off before the high note in "Think"; she was singing it a bit higher than the original and if she pulled it off that would be really something) and the Rose Bowl guy who came out of his first audition singing opera.

Your favorites suck. Fantasia is a stupid name and her lips weren't that big. She sounded like a loser when she said that.

And Rose Bowl guy needs to go. Now. I'm so sick of hearing his comparisons of when he was in the Rose Bowl (yeah, we heard you the first time, jackass) to his current experience. Bleh.

We're also following with amusement John Peter, the "pen salesman." Best we can figure, he's a recently returned Mormon missionary who goes to BYU-Hawaii, and came to his first audition straight from church (when he came out, he was holding his yellow slip in one hand and his scriptures in the other).

That guy couldn't be less charismatic or entertaining. Yawn.

Scooter Girl is very funny, but what I've heard of her voice so far is really more Broadway than pop.

Wrong. Scooter girl is not funny. She is a nerd who gets ignored everywhere she goes. This experience won't be good for her because her personality (which is turned up to 'high' because no one listened to her before the show) is going to be 10 times worse when this is all over. Her voice sucks too.

The model girl has really egregious too-far-apart fake boobs, is not a great singer and has way too cavalier an attitude to last much longer in the competition.

She is the type of cavalier that is born of being hot. She's always gotten by on it and she will continue to do so here. I don't like her, but I'd fuck her. She will be on as long as she wears very little clothing and keeps jumping in the pool.

There are a bunch of really anomalous people, and I'm hoping they show more of them: baby dyke Brianna Garcia, the little girl, red-headed kid crooner. I don't hold out much hope of any of them lasting in the competition, but it's nice to see something different.

How far does baby dyke think she's going to go? I don't think I've heard her sing, but her attitude and look ain't cuttin' it.

The red-headed step child is interesting. He'll be on for awhile, even though he's doing a straight up Crosby impression. How the hell does that voice come out of a 16 year old? That would freak me out to the point where, if he was my kid, I might take him to see her:

apparently Darrell's hooking up with Leah from RW Paris this challenge. That is what makes this show concept the best -- the infighting and the random hook-ups. What more can viewers ask for?

I had never seen the dude Jeremy on the RR team before Monday night.

Nutty case sensitive: I thought I got all of thurgreed's race-baiting socks already. I mean, seriously, this is still going? Anyway, I don't really care who gives a fuck what I think about mentoring exclusivity based on race and gender. I say what I want here and back it up. (And I might ad, I back it up better than your "No, I swear, X is good for you!" rant until even you realized how stupid it was.) I hold my tongue enough at work at around my friends' annoying kids.

Slave: I hang around with some occasional x users, all of them former acid users who would use acid if they could get it today. They can't. And when they do, it is expensive and you can only get a few hits. They call X concert tickets now, mostly because it's great slang that was perfect to describe something illicit without anyone outside of the community having any idea what you're talking about. So, maybe I have assumed that everyone does this, so forgive me. P.S. DOOD, can you score me some concert tickets!!??!!

Heroin: The problem with heroin is that there is no out. You don't really get off of it. You eventually kill yourself when you overdose on the shit, even if you get really good shit and are really careful.

Addicted mormons: A BYU-grade partner at a Chicago firm, claims the OB, got drunk the other night, drove, got into an accident, got arrested, then attacked some cops and tried to break out of jail. And I thought that my partners had bad judgement!

ND football: If there is something more pathetic than a derisive fight song customized for the opposing school bringing middle-aged losers coming back for a visit together with college-age losers still living it, I don't know what it is.

These threads tie together in no regard except that Notre Dame is probably the last place on earth I'd ever want to trip.

Acid blows the doors off X. Its like comparing a Benz S Class w/AMG package with a Lexus. Mushrooms fall in between the two... like a BMW 7 Series (before the ugly new body style).

Mormons have the right idea with the whole polygamy gig, but they have to let the women marry multiple men as well. Its only fair... However, any positive to what those waterheads preach is destroyed by their anti-substance policy. If I couldn't have coffee, I'd kill myself, and the idea of a life without at least social drinking gives me angina.

Don't forget the whole blessed underwear requirement.

Well, that, and perhaps waiting until your niece is of the age of consent before you marry her off to your brother.

I have an arena football question.

Austin has a new franchise starting this year and I have been shocked (shocked!) by the ticket prices. The solicitations I've seen have listed ticket prices in the $160/ticket range, about the same money we pay for great seats to the Spurs.

I cannot imagine it's worth it. Are Austin's tickets an aberration or is the entire AFL charging NBA money for good seats?

The best seats for the Chicago Rush are $355 for the entire season. $48 for one game.

Word. She is someone who is trying too hard to be funny and she never drops the schtick. Extremely tiresome - she'll be booted soon.

I tried for 2 days to figure out who the red headed guy sounds like. I thought Crosby, no - Sinatra, no - Sinatra Jr. - no, then it finally dawned on me - Steve Lawrence. Only thing he's missing is Edie Gourmet.
But he's got that voice that sounds like it's coming from another body - a lot like Clay sounded the first time you heard him.

Has no one commented on the Staples supply-guy commercial? That was freakin' hilarious! (Saw none of these live -- not really a football person...)

Guy in neck brace: "I've got those muffins I owe you..."

This is funny. I was trying to think of another celebrity whose last name looks funnier with a different spelling of the same word and couldn't do it. Perhaps it is because I'm wickedly hungover* on a Wednesday for the first time in a long time. Perhaps the hangover explains why I'm finding Edie Gourmet funny as well.


*so far underwear has stayed intact though.
