In the world of design which is my entire life and lively hood, there is one event that always demands the most attention. That would be the Super Bowl. No, I am not a sports far whatsoever but I am a diehard commercial fan, after all this is my business. There is no other time that I know of that draws so many people’s attention for advertising or costs as much per second as the super bowl. I couldn’t tell you who was playing, nor do I care (don’t hate) but I would tell you I am going to pay all attention to everything but the people running across the field in tight spandex.
I did not sit in front of a tv screen while people shout and scream and the drunk craziness of a crowed bar. I instead use this amazing internet to see everything I wanted to. I have to say that I am more impressed with the half time show with Madonna that I would have guess I would. Madonna being 50+ was very amazing, and must be making some serous bank. This half time has to be the best I have seen in a log time as far as the half time shows go, although the flashing from Justin Timberlake and Janet Jackson was pretty good for publicity standpoint.
Ok I have to say I am thoroughly impressed with this half time show. Best I have seen in a long time.
Four Observations of 2012 Super Bowl:
1. How much did Madonna make from this?
2. How much is she worth now?
3. How much did the whole half time cost to put on including props, costumes, stage, lighting, etc.?
4. How much did Vogue pay to be marketed that big during half time?
No wonder the commercials paid on average $3.5 million for a 30 seconds of air space. When your audience is over 111 million people it will come at a cost but should lead a good return on investment.
If you have not seen the outstanding performance by Madonna make sure to check it out here Madonna’s Halftime Show. Also, here are the top 10 commercials. I suggest watching them all.
What are your thoughts on half time? Which was your favorite commercial? Was it on the list of the top 10? If not comment with a link to your favorite so we can see.

Dear Shawn and Curtis, I must tell you how much I enjoy your daily muses. First I am really getting to know you, your life on the water, your recepies,interests,business,adventures; how would this ever happened without modern technology and Facebook? A day doesn’t go by without me being so sad that hard times kept me from your wedding and the fact that you haven’t received our Mazeltov gift yet. At least now I feel some cash would be the right gift for you, and yes, our worst problems are behind us at last!!!! Knowing Miami, I’d like to suggest Epicure for fabulous dishes and deli and bakery. They probably would even deliver!!They have two places, check it out, it would be a treat. Next the wonderful CORAL GABLES ART SHOW is usually held around the 20th of Feb. Not to be missed . Can we send a package to you on Papillon? HOW? Love, cousin Sharlene
So glad u have enjoined following us on or epic journey! If u would like to send us something, money always is great and very much appreciated. We are here in the grove till the end of the month and will be checking out the art festival on feb 19-21. If u plan on sending us something I can send u the address but it would have to be sent ASAP in order for us to get it in time before we depart. Thanks so much for all your thoughts and for following us along.

I wonder why I said “Coral Gables” instead of Coconut Grove Arts Festival? The Grove is the show I love and meant to promote. We bought the shows poster in 2000 and still love it. I can surely mail our offering by Feb. 13 so send me the details. I’d like to use Fed Ex so we’ll have a delivery date and tracking #. Can they leave it if you are not there to sign–maybe at the HBarbour store . We need the dock number and tell me if it should be delv with your signature only or anyone at the address. This would be called a Home Delivery by Fedex Ground. I await your info.
