I was just not that into the Super Bowl this year. No affinity for either team and just did not feel the need to see the ads. While home with the boys in the afternoon (the weather was not apt to outside activities), we stumbled across a sanitized version of the Mel Brooks classic, "Blazing Saddles" on AMC. We had a blast watching it and I have not laughed like that in a movie for a long time. The humor still is original and the story line was great. While the boys did not understand much of the humor,(e.g. Nazis in the American west during the 19th century) they appreciate the physical comedy. For the record, I would not have let them watch the unedited version. But while Rachel was working, it was quality father/son time that I always cherish and enjoy. Thank you, Mel Brooks!
