Seriously, it's hysterical! No creepy dudes smooching the women... just flat out hilarity.
Why doesn't this come on when I can watch it?!

The other bowl!!
As we all know, the football game isn't the only thing worth watching on Super Bowl Sunday. A few hours earlier in the day, there is a mesmerizing broadcast on Animal Planet known as... THE PUPPY BOWL!!
In case you are unfamiliar with the greatness that is the Puppy Bowl, let me allow Wikipedia to break down its many complexities:
The Puppy Bowl consists of a number of puppies playing in a model stadium ("Animal Planet Stadium") with no audience (but with canned audience cheering), minimal commentary, and instant replay shots. A "bowl cam" provides shots upwards through the transparent bottom of a special water bowl built into the stadium floor, with a wide-angle lens that allows viewers to watch the puppies drink water (and walk through it) up close...The puppies are given a wide variety of chew-toys and bones to play with, and they are free to tackle, bite, and do as they wish...When a puppy drags one of the football-shaped toys into the end zone, a "puppy touchdown" is declared. "Penalties" are issued for puppies relieving themselves on the field. Timeouts are called if the water bowl needs to be refilled, or if the puppies begin to fight (a behavior called "unnecessary rrruff-ness"). In Puppy Bowl VI, substitutions were made whenever a puppy fell asleep on the field. Puppy Bowl III, V, and VI also featured a tailgate party outside the stadium with several other dogs watching the event on televisions with cuts to their reactions throughout.
Phew! Hope y'all were able to follow that. This year's Puppy Bowl really reached new heights of adorability, thanks to me and Syd's personal favorite pup, OLIVER!
HOLY CRAP THAT IS A CUTE PUPPY! He is a Great Pyrenees, and is very fluffy. Unfortunately his well-deserved title of Most Valuable Puppy was usurped by upstart pup CB, whose manic racing around the field caught the attention of officials.
Okay, fine, he's stupid cute as well. When you watch the Puppy Bowl, everyone wins!

Follow up Super Bowl post
YAY! The Packers won! The rapist lost! I love the city of Pittsburgh, but I am not a fan of rape, so screw you Steelers. However, my main takeaway from last night's sporting event is this:
How awful was that halftime show?! Pro-tip: Just have Prince do the damn thing every year.

Super Bowl Post Fail
I wrote a long and awesome Super Bowl breakdown and then I accidentally deleted the whole thing. I cursed a lot. I am not retyping it, so here's a video of a chipmunk scratching himself in slow motion instead.
GO PACKERS.
GO PACKERS.

Sam's new tattoo
Sam wants a new tattoo, and has come up with the great idea that instead of the more traditional THUG LIFE, he should get one in gothic script that says HUG LIFE, given his love of hugs. I fully support this endeavor.

Back with a bang!
I got busy with work and wedding and didn't post for a week. WHOOPS. Anyway, here's the cutest video I've seen all week to make up for neglecting my loyal readers. Hold on to your hats:
I told you to hold on to your hats, goons! Now your hats have been blown off by cuteness and your heads are cold. Try and listen a little better next time, yes?
