No, it's not a typo. We missed the ultimate MAN event - the Super Bowl! I didn't even realize it was happening - isn't it usually in January?
Well, my husband was all over the day. He had finished his work, showered, cleared his favorite chair and hit the button on the remote. Hit the button on the remote, hit the button on the remote. NO, the remote wasn't broken, the TV wasn't broken - FOX just wasn't coming in.
Our television reception is always troublesome at best. NBC usually is fine; PBS is good; ABC is fuzzy; CBS sometimes has a picture, sometimes sound, rarely both; but FOX is the most sporadic. Some nights the reception is great, other times it's just the fuzz race across the screen. That was the case last night. My poor husband nearly cried.
He tried all kinds of remedies - no go. The snacks just weren't the same when watching a video and knowing that the ultimate MAN show was happening on another channel. Fortunately he is manly enough and doesn't NEED the testosterone boost, but it was a difficult night.
Who won anyway? More important, were the Vikings or the Bears playing?
