The leading search for Friday, February 2nd, 2008 is for a 7-foot Spaniard.  Pau Gasol, formerly of the Memphis Grizzlies, was traded to the Los Angeles Lakers today.  Maybe my boy Colorado Kobe will now quit his complaining and be content with the pieces around him.  The Laker’s now feature four All-Star caliber players (Colorado Kobe, Andrew Bynum, Lamar Odom and Gasol).  Unfortunately, the NBA’s Western Conference is absolutely loaded and the Lakers will have to get through super-powers Phoenix, Dallas and San Antonio before they can be considered elite.  But, it is a start and will definitely make the rest of the NBA take notice that these Lakers are ready to compete.

The smash-hit Lost returned to ABC last night.  I must say, the new episode was amazing and it does not surprise me that today’s search has included many Lost associations including Lost Blogs, Lost Ratings, Lost cast, and Hot Girl In Lost (to that I ask which one?!?).  Unfortunately, only eight episodes were created before the writer’s went on strike.  Enjoy it while it is here Lost fans because we may be seeing the last eight episodes of Lost ever.  Maybe they will finally be found….doubt it.

As I mentioned the other day, the temperatures here have been consistently in the the low teens and even dipping into the negatives at night.  It is needless to say that I am ecstatic that Saturday is Groundhog Day.  That little SOB better see his shadow because I am ready to get the golf clubs out.

Expect this weekend will be full of Super Bowl searches.  I hope the New York Giants can make it a football game as I have decided that my traditional wager will be placed on the Giants (Vegas is giving 12 points c’mon!).  Also, expecting the commercials to be searched extensively.  Look for the usual Budweiser ads as well as CareerBuilder.com, Cars.com, Coca-Cola, Frito-Lay, Garmin, GoDaddy.com (these are always entertaining), Kraft, Pepsi, Proctor & Gamble, Sales Genie and VICTORIA’S SECRET!!!!  I’m excited……GO G-MEN!
