Hint: I am from the deep south. We don't worry about how slow things are. Seriously most southerners would not have thought anything about it. Life's too short to even make an issue of something like that. I agree with CE, what is funny is listening/reading the comments.

I would LOVE to live somewhere where we don't have to worry about how slow things are. I think that every time I visit my daughter in Eugene, Oregon. Where I live, near Los Angeles, people are constantly rushing and impatient. I've been honked at if I don't start accelerating within 1 sec of a stoplight turning green, and I'm not exaggerating. I've been not uncommonly tailgated while driving close to 80mph in a 65 zone. It's crazy here.

Is there an act for the Super Bowl halftime show yet? If there is, maybe they ought to step aside.

Love me some Aretha.
The Lions? Not so much.

Well, I also love me some Aretha, but I must say that I've always thought the only thing our national anthem had going for it, musically speaking, was its brevity.
I vote next time Aretha just gives us "Respect" or "Chain of Fools."

I vote next time Aretha just gives us "Respect" or "Chain of Fools." Maybe they could have a giant Uncle Sam statue instead of the flag, and the whole crowd could do a sing-along. "For all my life I bought into your game But I found out I'm just a link in your chain "You got me where you want me I ain't nothin' but your fool Ya treated me mean Oh you treated me cruel "One of these mornings The chain is gonna break But up until the day I'm gonna take all I can take, oh hey "Chain, chain, chain (Chain, chain, chain) Chain, chain, chain (Chain, chain, chain) Chain, chain, chai-i-in (Chain, chain, chain) Chain of fools" And then the Ump can scream "Play Ball or Else!" instead of just "Play Ball!" Definitely more appropriate than a War Hymn, IMO.
