That's just the multiple layers of fur. And don't judge us by our skin color. Put us down on a hot beach and we turn bright red like the rest of you.

Sometimes it's tough to tell with Canadians. You all look alike to us.

Hockey thanks you for your kind words, Orlando.

Sorry to be so late commenting on your fine blog, Sue. I only just noticed it.

And I'm a guy, dammit. A guy, I tell you.

I don't mind hockey, actually. As long as I can cover my eyes when they check really hard or start fighting, I think it's kind of pretty to watch. Very graceful.

O, you're just lucky the government is so preoccupied with this stimulus crap, otherwise you'd be so already in the process of being escored to canuckistan, where you'd have to learn to love pro hockey, (and moose of course).

i think the fact that we had someone liveblogging the COMMERCIALS for yesterday's Super Bowl proves that this is no guy blog.

and thanks for the reader post, sue. My mom is an Avon lady herself and appreciates how the job offers her some income (albeit not nearly as extensive as you have gotten, apparently!) with the freedom to set her own hours.

In reply to Avon Ladies on the Superbowl

Guy blog? We did have a sports-themed weekend, but I suppose that's fairly normal for the Superbowl. I was all set to put up a post about the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, but I thought it would be rude to trump the live blog.

While I agree that an Avon ad during the big game may seem strange on the surface, there are plenty of women who follow football with as much enthusiasm as any men, so maybe it makes sense. I don't think I've ever seen an Avon ad on television before. Maybe they decided to make a splash in their debut.

I can't comment specifically on the game or the ad because I am in the demographic that doesn't buy Avon and doesn't watch football. I didn't even turn the TV on yesterday.

I've been wondering today if America is going to revoke my membership.
