Issue 46 Vol 1

Important Holidays: Steelers Superbowl Sunday, Groundhog Day

Weather: Eight more weeks of winter is bearable with a Lombardi Trophy to keep you warm at night. Bust out the black and gold this weekend; it's all the rage on the fashion watch.

Special New Years Weight Loss Section: Ron Jr lost 5 lbs! Go Ron! Carinne's girlscouts delivered their cookies this week, so her diet is officially bunk.

Urbandictionary word of the day: Roethlisburger

A burger, sold at Peppi's on the North Side. It includes a concoction of beef, sausage, scrambled eggs and American cheese. The price for No. 7's namesake sub? $7, of course.

Lynne: Yinz wantto go dahntahn n'at? For lunch I could use a Roethlisburger.

Mick: Yea, and an Arn City to go with it.

Song of the Week: "Here We Go Steelers", both the official song and the chant, by various drunk people at various bars

Notable Accomplishments: Lexy has a cheer tournament upcoming; pictures from the competition have been sent out (they're really cool!). Bev's first yoga class was canceled. Alex was officially initiated into her sorority. Since the Steelers won the AFC champs, Carinne has received 28 Steelers related forward emails and three Steelers related forward texts. Christine's neighborhood psychic predicts the Super Bowl score to be 28-13 Steelers.

Hypothetical Situation of the Week: Would you be willing to clean ALL of the toilets at the Tampa Stadium Monday after the game if you were given free tickets and lodging to the game?

For those of you who the answer to that is "HECK NO", here's another HSOTW. Would you rather be the person who does the laundry for all the sweaty nasty sports gear for both teams, or be the coach of the losing team?

FWN Member of the Week: The Terrible Towel!!!!

The terrible towel was born on December 27, 1975. Its father, Myron Cope, is a legendary steelers announcer. The Towel has been to Mt Everest, and made an appearance on Saturday Night Live. Sales from the towel have accumulated over $2mil, and benefits Pennsylvania schools for students with disabilities. During the 2005 superbowl season, it is reported that 1 trillion terrible towels were sold.

Thanks! (clap clap clap clap clap)

Classifieds: Remember when, you were little, and someone would ask you what city you lived in? You'd say "Picksburgh". Then, your older, wiser, smart a$$ relative would say, "Picksburgh?? Like Pick-your-nose-burgh?" and you'd get all flustered and upset and not have a response? Yeah. Bad times. UM would like to announce that Mrs. Piggy's measurements are 27-20-36.

Look for more next time,

Carinne
