Just because he arrived doesn’t mean he made it
I’m officially old. My son enjoyed last night’s half time show.
I didn’t know a single song.

Didn't know, didn't care. I felt sorry for the Buick GNX that was swiss cheesed to have so many people move through it from the stage below.
Took the opportunity to do some dishes instead.

While I know who Kendrick Lamar is but not any of his songs, I texted my youngest son (18) who is a HUGE fan right as the show started:
me: OMG hes standing on a GNX!
him: Dad his album is called GNX
And while we both have music interests that span many genres including hip hop/rap (mostly old school for me) I thought the show was meh while he said it was the best one ever. Then again he knows 90% of the words to all those songs somehow.

Much respect for Kendrick, the voice of the future of RnB/Rap. Blew me away 1st time I saw him on the Grammies years ago. But last night was just flat.

The Wild True Story Behind Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl Halftime Show
From the start, Kendrick Lamar wanted to turn his life into a video game for his big Super Bowl halftime show. The team tasked with doing that knew what to do—right down to sourcing a vintage GNX.
I read it was a prop

Whole half time show made me frown, music, uninterpretable lyrics, lack of any wow factor in regards to stage performance, just no... Then there was the game itself, yet another frown, I fell asleep before it ended which lead to another frown when I woke up to turn the TV off. Should have watched a Netflix episode instead. Thank god that GNX was just a prop.

Not sure what the top limit is for my '23 Transit. After reading first hand accounts on the socials and forums, the now recalled for various reasons Transit Trail was limited to 81mph, was curious if that was the case with all Transits. Driving a brick down the highway that fast isn't necessary, but 100mph has been achieved once.
