Super Bowl 59, mind

Apple Watch in front of TV
February 9, 2025. Winter. Florida. We sat outside to enjoy dinner and Super Bowl 59.

Why is yesterday’s Super Bowl 59 important?

Three-peat potential.

And of course, the commercials.

”You are somebody”. (SB59 Commercial)

There is news this morning about yesterday’s video, “I am somebody”, origin. Here’s a taste from 1973. And here’s another from 1963.

Note: Heard the going rate for a 30-second SB59 commercial was $8m.

Back in the day

Walt Disney at a tropical location
Some of Walt’s inspiration for his World-Famous Jungle Cruise Attraction came from real life adventures.

Back in the day, i used to be a Skipper on Disney’s World-Famous Jungle Cruise Attraction.

Back in the day i used to wear a crucifix.

Back in the day i used to smoke cigarettes.

Back in the day, i never dreamed of being a writer or a professional speaker.

Back in Washington State, we dreamed of living just five minutes from Walt Disney World.
