One of the major delights in my life is a young man named Xander. He belongs to a pair of friends of mine (his mom and dad).
This post is because this DELIGHTFUL child turns ONE today!!!! It is amazing, because it seems like just yesterday this little urchin weighed 10 lbs and slept all the time. Now he is walking and talking (albeit talking in his own language).
If you don’t watch Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert then you are missing some good times. Colbert’s report on Captain America was absolutely wonderful and he continues to hang the Shield on set.
Once again, I know I know, this is NOT ABOUT BOOKS. But, the super bowl WAS last night, so why not?
My favorite was GM’s sad robot.
And my other favorites, in no particular order.
The Budweiser “Rock Paper Scissors” commercial.
Doritos “Crunchy, smooth?”
I thought this was fabulous. I also enjoyed that Doritos opened it up to people to come up with the ideas instead of just using their own marketing team.
Coke had a good set of commercials. My favorite of their bunch was “Grand Theft Auto.”
Budweiser seemed to be the only beer doing commercials. Left and right there were Bud’s and Bud Light’s. This was my other favorite Bud commerical. I also enjoyed that the dog was (seemingly) half golden half pit.
What was your favorite? Also, check out Nosheep’s top commercials!

I love Joss Whedon.
There, I’ve said it. Now that you know that, you should also know that I have seen all of Buffy (7 seasons) and Angel (5 seasons). I also own Firefly and Serenity. I went to a pre-release screening of Serenity, with two of the actors from the show there. So yeah, much love.
Buffy (the show, though I also loved the movie) was an amazing show. It survived one possible cancellation, but shows can only go on so long. Joss, as the creator had never really given up on Buffy, and now, Buffy returns in COMIC form!!!!
The entire reason for this post is because Zach has done an entire post Over at Nosheep.net. Make sure you read his article because it has all the facts that will help to build your excitement!!!!!Also, here at TvGuide.com there is an interview with Joss. Here is a quote from the article.
But the idea of doing movies about some of the ancillary characters got me really excited, because I love those actors and I love that world. That kind of fell through, but when I started working on the comic… I sketched out this sort of broad arc that would connect everything. Now it will probably only appear on the comic-book pages, but it will be really well drawn.
So check out the full article at NoSheep.net and start getting psyched for the return of Buffy!
