All-time Fave Superbowl Commercials

This year I'm working on Superbowl Sunday, which is ok with me as I no longer really follow football. However, I ♥ the commercials that are shown. Some of them are just so freakin' funny!

To this day, I ♥ the Budweiser frogs & clydesdales! Another funny one is the Kevin Ferderline commercial because he seems to be poking fun at himself. One of my fave clydesdale commmercials is the one with the donkey that becomes apart of the team...very cute!

There was a vote for all-time favorite at cbs.com. The top three to choose from where Team Clydesdale, Mean Joe Green, & the talking stain.

Here's my pick:

Watch CBS Videos Online

Apparently, the Mean Joe Green commercial has been the reigning all-time fave since this particular show started 8 years ago, and the commercial will be retired from future votes. I happen to really like that commercial & enjoy seeing it when it's on, but I also happen to love that Clydesdale commercial with the freakin' awesome Rocky theme!

The winner this year?

TEAM CLYDESDALE!!! WOOOP!

Hope those watching the Superbowl tomorrow have a great game to watch!

Meme: Blog type

snagged this from Christine @ The happily ever after: What Blogger type are you?

Well...it's been a long couple of days at work and I'm exhausted. Therefore, I can not make up my mind if these analyses of my 2 blogs are a bunch of hogwash, or dead on...especially as I always seem to be two minds about things!! ;p

Perhaps I'm a happy, or unhappy, blend of the two.

Blog @ blogger:

ISTP - The Mechanics
The independent and problem-solving type. They are especially attuned to the demands of the moment are masters of responding to challenges that arise spontaneously. They generally prefer to think things out for themselves and often avoid inter-personal conflicts.

The Mechanics enjoy working together with other independent and highly skilled people and often like seek fun and action both in their work and personal life. They enjoy adventure and risk such as in driving race cars or working as policemen and firefighters.

Blog @ LiveJournal:

ESFP - The Performers
The entertaining and friendly type. They are especially attuned to pleasure and beauty and like to fill their surroundings with soft fabrics, bright colors and sweet smells. They live in the present moment and don´t like to plan ahead - they are always in risk of exhausting themselves.

The enjoy work that makes them able to help other people in a concrete and visible way. They tend to avoid conflicts and rarely initiate confrontation - qualities that can make it hard for them in management positions.

Looking at these now...I think I am a blend of the two. Interesting to note, I'm a nurse and so, I'm always putting out fires of a sort & dealing with crises. I work in a profession that can support me financially, as I am single, but also let's me help others "in a concrete and visible way". Personally...the only way I exhaust myself is by being too damn lazy!!! Which seriously needs to stop as it only depresses me! bleh!

Alrighty then, how 'bout you? Try the Typealyzer!

btw...the following is my Chinese zodiac sign:

Chinese Zodiac - Pig

Personality
Occupying the last position in the Chinese Zodiac, the 12th, the Pig symbolizes such character traits as diligence, compassion, and generosity. Pigs enjoy life and because they are entertaining, others enjoy their company. Pigs are giving souls and reap much enjoyment when they’re helping others, but sometimes they give too much. Honesty is what Pigs give and it’s what they expect to receive in return.

Pigs seek peace and will do what is necessary to maintain it. This trait, while admirable, sometimes makes it easy for others to take advantage of Pigs. Pigs are always doing for others, helping anyway they can, but rarely will they ask others for help. This can overwhelm and stress them, but Pigs don’t mind.

When it comes to money, Pigs enjoy spending more than saving. They gravitate towards name brand items. Thriftiness happens only occasionally, but Pigs do know how to find great deals.

Health
Always seeking fun, Pigs often indulge more than they should. Excessive eating, drinking and smoking can cause sickness. Pigs aren’t very active and, combined with their excessive behaviors, cause them to gain weight. Pigs are social and being alone makes them unhappy. Pigs would benefit from adopting a healthier lifestyle.

Career
Pigs enjoy helping at work and can always be counted on. They enjoy opportunities that allow them to express their creativity. Pigs are detail-oriented, a trait admired by management. Pigs aren’t afraid to take on responsibility. Some good career choices for Pigs include: entertainer, caterer, doctor, veterinarian, or interior decorator. They’d do well in retail or hospitality.

Relationships
Supportive and giving, Pigs make great partners. They’re affectionate and sexual and prefer staying home to going out. They enjoy what they have, especially their home and family. Once they find the right partner, they’re typically committed for the long-term.

Pigs and the 5 elements
Metal Pigs – Years 1911 and 1971
Metal Pigs have a tough exterior, and this strength can be seen in all areas of life. They work diligently and love with all they have. They’re outspoken and trust others right away.

Water Pigs – Years 1923 and 1983
Water Pigs are trustworthy almost to a fault. Others can easily influence Water Pigs, but Water Pigs are also good at influencing others to get what they want. They’re extremely social and enjoy having a good time.

Wood Pigs – Years 1935 and 1995
Wood Pigs are the most helpful and are always seeking ways to work with others. In fact, they’ll help others even when others say help isn’t necessary. Big hearts and strong minds characterize Wood Pigs.

Fire Pigs – Years 1947 and 2007
The fire in Fire Pigs comes through in everything they do. They’re gutless risk-takers and once they put their minds to something, it’s all or nothing. That applies to work, romance and goals. Fire Pigs make excellent leaders and bosses.

Earth Pigs – Years 1959 and 2015
Earth Pigs are most content at home, with family. They never approach a task without first formulating a plan. Earth Pigs are better at being led than being a leader.

Compatibility
Pigs are most compatible with a Rabbit or Goat and incompatible with the Monkey and Snake.
