So here we sit... 11:30pm... going into second overtime in a win or die situation for the Pens and thankfully a commercial came on that made me bust a gut and relax for a nano-second.
Ah, the good old days of the '70's when I thought Peter Brady could do anything. He was hot with that Puka necklace, right? And so sweet when his voice was breaking... and as he graduated from striped tee's to Greg's funky cast off shirts, his hair got moppier and dimples, well, dimplier. He could do it all- sing, surf, ride a cool big handle-barred bike up into the back yard, throw a football... but there is ONE thing Peter Brady aka Christopher Knight apparently CAN'T do..
The German wheel; which is some circus trick involving a huge wheel with a performer in the middle acting as human spokes as it spins lower and lower to the ground kind of like a spun-out quarter. Some big bulky guy in a singlet did it easily- Look, ma! One hand! And then, in a wonderful advertisement for an upcoming NBC must-see-summer-hiatus-filler-trash-show- Celebrity Circus- they pop a safely padded Peter into this thing, give him a little spin and the whole contraption just crashes flat to the floor with the middle Brady well, right in the middle. It was HIL-AR-ious.
(Apparently CK can't get enough... from The Surreal Life to My Fair Brady... now this. Is he a Reality Slut or did mom and pop not invest those earnings very well? What about residuals?)
Just a little commercial break from our regularly scheduled SATC programming... gotta go, second sudden-death overtime starts NOW.
