It's Superbowl Sunday!

...and I couldn't care less. It's neat, I suppose, that two African American coaches are going toe-to-toe. Is this the first time any black coach ever made it to the big game? Maybe. I think too much has been made of this, though. Like, shouldn't we be way beyond the point where if a black person does something good we're all like "Whoa! Lookit blackie doin' all good for himself. Good for him!" It shouldn't be a novelty. Seems kind of patronizing to me. In conclusion, football is only good as part of the morning's highlight reels. A whole game of it is slow and boring as hell. Too much starting and stopping and running of the clock when nothing's happening. What a stupid-ass game. Habs game is on this afternoon, I think. I hope it's reffed better than Thursday's game.

On a lighter and brighter note, Led Zeppelin is apparently (not) gearing up for their first concert tour in over 20 years. Hopefully they're still good and can still rock as well as before. You'd hate for them to come back, stink, and have people remember them for stinking. When I saw Robert Plant's pic in that above article, it made me think of something...


Coincidence? Maybe Zep'll do an Oz-inspired set, including such hits as: "Somewhere Over the Stairway", "Whole Lotta Munchkins", "Black Witch", "When the Farmhouse Breaks", "Wickedwitch Breakdown", "Going to Oz", "Ozmir", and many, many more! Thanks to "RPF" (whoever that is) for pointing out that this article was from 2002. I thought the numbers didn't add up (22 years since they broke up, in 1980). Dang my rusty journalist insticts! Looks like my Led Ozzelin tribute concert has a better chance of happening. Cool!
