• The Wall Street Journal cited statistics showing that forty percent of Americans did not show up for work or called in sick on Monday following the Super Bowl game. Coincidentally it was reported that Americans consumed fifty million cases of beer Sunday. And that includes a 12-pack of Bud Light.

• The Super Bowl offered two top teams the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers Sunday at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. The entire country partied all day in what has become a national tradition. I hope you all had a Happy Super Bowl Sunday or as we Dallas Cowboys fans call it, Passover.

• Daily Variety forecast that Super Bowl TV viewership could surpass the previously most-watched event on TV, the 1969 moon landing. It was an odd event for a politician to pass up. President Biden refused to agree to a three-minute interview before the game, but he did offer to throw out the first pitch.

• The Super Bowl drew huge TV viewership Sunday generated by two great teams and the arrival of Taylor Swift to the stadium in Las Vegas. The NFL went all out to accommodate its new fans. Since more women were watching the Super Bowl than ever before, the pigskin was injected with Botox.

• Sony paid $1.2 billion for rights to Michael Jackson's song catalogue. Thanks to licensing fees and revenue from their hologram concerts, Michael Jackson and Elvis are worth more money dead than alive. In an unrelated story, Paul McCartney's kids plan to take him skydiving on his 82nd birthday.

• Donald Trump appealed to the Supreme Court Monday, arguing that the president can't be held liable for actions in office. He walked into the chamber, shook hands with the air, talked gibberish, failed to remember where the exit door is, then tripped on the way out. Not a Special Counsel can touch him now.

• The White House went into full damage control after the Special Counsel's report saying Biden has too diminished a mental capacity to stand trial. I disagree. In more proof that President Biden knows exactly what he's doing , he just asked Ukraine for $14 billion to help fund his war against Texas.
