Well the Superbowl is over, and much to my chagrin, my beloved Chicago Bears did not win.  There of course is always next year, and I am going to send a letter to the Bears’ management tomorrow suggesting a different strategy for the future…….like playing well enough to actually make it to the Superbowl.

The big story, I mean other than the Giants’ win, was that Amanda and Scott were in attendance and had an absolute blast.  (Amanda sent me this picture) Amanda won the tickets in a drawing at her work (Eli Lilly) and they were actually in the Eli Lilly loge.  (Not a luge as I had previously stated, as Amanda does not like cold weather.) I could not go, as I am currently in Virginia for a certification class that was scheduled at this time.  And Scotty has been making the most of it.  He has tons of stories, but the best has been meeting Joe Montana and sharing how mad I was going to be that it was not me.  I used to watch him at Notre Dame.

But I did get to watch the game at the hotel, and while they were fighting traffic, I was in bed relaxing and typing this.  It really was a special time for both of them though, and I am so happy they had this opportunity.  It will be something that I am sure Scotty will remember forever.

Just like the time I missed meeting Joe Montana.

Goodnight my friends and God Bless!
