The Super Bowl 2005-2006: Iron Men and Girlie Men

Did you watch the Super Bowl? I slept through the third quarter because there is switch in this old mans body that turns to OFF and there is nothing in Gods Universe that can take it off automatic. So I sleep for part of all football games. I just can't get that switch set to halftime.

I also miss part of each game because I read while Im watching the game. If not reading, Im doing a logic puzzle. If not reading or doing a puzzle, Im out in the kitchen brewing something up. So I never see all of a football game. Not even the Super Bowl, the football game of all football games.

Despite my inattention, yesterdays football game was to my liking. Too often the Super Bowl turn into a rout. But this was a match of endurance and strength and the Steelers pulled off a great victory.

Seattle should hold their heads high. They played great and they lost like men. They had some bad luck too. They actually lost by inches if you analyze some of the caught passes that didnt count as receptions.

I live in the Northwest. Seattle is the preference up in these parts. In fact my son and his family live in Seattle. But we lived in Pittsburgh too. So, who ever won was okay for us. But Im glad that Pittsburgh won because I think that the Pittsburgh coach is a fine family man that does not mouth filthy words to his players when they make a mistake.

He said that he wanted to win the game for that old fellow you saw hoisting the trophy before it was awarded to him. Seeing the coach hugging his daughters and kissing his wife was just grand. What a day! Well, I like Seattle's coach too. Two fine men.

At halftime we had to watch the Rolling Stones. They may be of the species that Arnold Schwarzenegger, the weight lifter and Hollywood actor turned California state governor, calls "girly-men." What the hell were they doing on that football field? Well maybe some of their gyrations could be used by running backs.

Why People Attend High School Reunions

High school is an experience that depends entirely on your place in the social realm of your class. For some, it is the best time of their life, and for others it is the worst. More often then not, what follows in college and in the real world is diametrically opposed to what happened in high school.

That is why after several years go by, there is some interest by all classmates to attend their high school reunion. The cool kids want to re-live their youth and visit the grounds where they felt on top of the world, and the nerds want to show everyone how far they have come.

There are other things that come into play as well. As time passes, classmates put on weight, and lose their hair. The real question is how much hair and how much weight. This is the number one thing that brings people together for class reunions - curiosity. Beyond that, there is the desire to rekindle the relationships that were so important in our teen years. We will never forget our high school friendships or the experiences that were critical in molding who we are today.

In a class reunion survey done by http://Myevent.com 87% of classmates that attended their class reunion found the reunion to be extremely gratifying, and said they would attend the next class reunion as well. So, whether out of curiosity, to show off, or for re-establishing old ties, class reunions seem to be more popular than ever. It is indeed noteworthy that reunions have become a fabric of our society. In the last year, many old television shows have had reunion episodes and a whole series was devoted to a high school reunion.

So, if you should get an invitation to your high school reunion, do not pass on the chance to go back in time and re-visit old friends and foes. You may be able to reconnect with some of your best friends you have ever had and establish new relationships with people you didnt even know existed.
