SUPER BOWL - Remember I said I didn't care about who won the Super Bowl? I admit, I did care about that last minute touchdown by the Steelers before the half. Something about having 7 and 7 in some sort of pool or something. Not enough to really scream about but enough to cover the cost of the brownies I made. But you could probably hear me down the street yelling for Harrison to keep inbounds and run like hell!!
DORITOS - So what was your favorite ad? Though none really knocked it out of the park for me I did have a few favorites. The Doritos crystal ball commercial really made me smile. Did you know that the commercial was thought up by amateur's for a contest and won them a million dollars? For more info (and to see the other commercials that were up for the prize) go here. I like the Cheeto's Pigeon commercial along with the Coke ladybug ad. You can check out all the ads here. And I want to see the new GI Joe movie too.
FREE GRAND SLAM - I did like the commercial where the mob guys were trying to talk and the waitress kept whip creaming their pancakes. But the best part of the commercial was that Denny's is giving away a free Grand Slam breakfast to everyone in America tomorrow the 3rd. From 6am to 2pm, stop by your nearest Denny's and order what I consider, an iconic American breakfast! For more info go here.
UPDATE: I drove by the Denny's at 1st and Alma just before 8AM this morning and the line to get in was out the door! And, frankly, it looked like most of the folks in line could really use a hot meal. I noticed an Eyewitness News truck parked in front getting ready to do a news story too.
FREE SODA COUPON - And if you can't make it to Denny's but are still looking for something free, how about a coupon for some Diet Dr. Pepper? I actually like the diet version of Dr. Pepper. Yes, I'm a Pepper, wouldn't you like to be a diet Dr. Pepper too? For more info go here.
You want to get up early and go for a Grand Slam or go for lunch? We have not done that in a long, long time.

Loved the part where the Denny's waitress topped off the pancakes with a soul patch. Funny!

My favorite commercial was the one with Connan O'brien.

Mom -The line was out the door, we would never had had time to go. We'll have to go some other time, like a leisurely weekend morning!
Louise - The soul patch was what made me laugh too.
Noble Pig - I love the flack all these big ad agencys are getting since this idea came from fans.
Peabody - I saw an interview with Connan about the commerical, looks like he had fun doing it.
Chef Barbie - They gave away MILLIONS in free Grand Slams!
