Timmy and The Broncos Get Cold Cocked!!

Burrrrrrr!! It was 17º @ 7:30am in The Big Apple, The Greatest City In The World. Wind chill makes it even colder - estimated to be down to 4º. Burrrrrrr!!


And ... speaking of cold==>the Patriots cold cocked the Broncos last night. WTF!! Where was the defense? I mean ... Brady passes for 5 TDs in the first half? Get real people.


It was an embarrassing loss for Timmy’s team. At halftime I just turned the tube off and did crosswords until it was time for SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE.


So ... on to other things ... like ...


Billi Pod’s report card on the Tennessee Williams so-called “comedy” PERIOD OF ADJUSTMENT==>NF<==as in Not Funny.


Yes, as I had predicted in yesterday’s posting ... there was an over-abundance of anger, frustration and yelling from the opening lines to the final bit some 2+ hours later.


Not sure why I didn’t leave at intermission but I didn’t. The theater was so cold that at intermission I had to put on my heavy jacket.


Now I know why Tennessee Williams wrote only one so-called “comedy.” So ... my loyal and faithful readers in the Tri-State area ... see this at your own peril.

Billi Pod’s entertainment event for today is ...


2:00==>PSALMS AND SONGS FOR THE NEW YEAR @ Avery Fisher Hall - “An afternoon of choral masterpieces, featuring John Rutter's magnificent ‘Mass of the Children’ and Leonard Bernstein's colorful ‘Chichester Psalms’.”

(complimentary ticket)


Even though it is still very cold out I am lucky that this event is at Lincoln Center because the only time I will be out in the elements is walking from PHC the block and a half to The Port Authority Bus Terminal. The subway exit uptown is in the bowels of Lincoln Center ... so no exposure to the cold.


When the concert is finished I will return to the cozy confines of PHC to watch the GIANTS/GREEN BAY game @ 4:30 at frigid Lambeau Field.


The Packers, behind Aaron Rogers, who is having an awesome year, are 7.5 point favorites. I think this will be a shoot-out with the Packers winning by a field goal in the final seconds of regulation. We will see ...


Totally enjoyed SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE, hosted by Daniel Radcliffe. The funniest skit was the one about Radcliffe being unable to leave Hogwarts, even some 20 years later.


Wow!! It is hard to believe that little Saylor Elizabeth Falletta is now one week old. It’s even more difficult to believe that her father, Army Guy, hasn’t already traded her in for a newer model.


GO GINA! GO ARMY GUY!! GO SAYLOR!!!
