All that inconvienence so that one moron can throw a ball to another moron.🙄 The earth would be a better place if people would care more about what goes on in the world that actually affects their lives instead of some idiot with a ball.

I don't want to debate the merits of football (American), but we all need entertainment. That's why you like DIY audio and music. Who are you to judge others choices?
Ok, I'll make a judgement... The Black Eyed Peas at half time? OMG that sucks. Green people are cool though....
The costumes were really cool. The staging wasn't bad until they lost a section of led panels. The mix sucked. Stagehands did a great job as always getting all that gack off the field.
Usually the blackouts around here are caused by downed power lines and it almost always happens in the spring or summer. I don't really understand why they don't just bury all of them. I know it makes it harder to service them but it would also make them rarely have to be serviced wouldn't it?
Once upon a time during a sleepless night I happened to watch a BBC educational programme about underground power lines. I did not realize that they have to be liquid cooled to stop them from melting without the cooling effect of the air. Just extending one was a major undertaking.
Without special economic or safety concerns it will always be cheaper to just run them overground and keep fixing them.

I was about to write something but thought better of it. You said it better than I would have anyway so... thanks. Maybe CBS is having a bad day.
Cheers.
Go Packers.

ConEd installed a section of feeder in lower Manhattan not long ago that is really a superconductor. It's able to carry something like 10X the current of a similarly sized conventional feeder. It's done so well they are replacing more and more sections all over the island.
Fortunately at half-time, BBCA carried the bus competition on Top Gear.
Ah, too be so lucky....
Christine Aguillera was just painful to the ears, and she muffed the words -- "Twilight's last reaming?" wtf?

That's why she makes the big bucks....
Sigh, at least she was still better than the halftime show...(need puking emoticon here...)
Who listens to these peoples music? Someone must enjoy it, I don't. Any Aguillera or PEP fans out there care to let us in on why they rate?
Good game though, not epic, but fun to watch.
It was... awful. My comment at the time: "I didn't know the word 'yeah!' was in the national anthem."
I knew it is cheaper not to bury them. Initially anyway. It very well may be cheaper in the long run though when you don't have to pay huge amounts of workers overtime to run around town fixing them all the time.

Are we talking Christina Aguillera and the Black Eyed Peas here or are we back on power lines??
