That will be what happens today in town to celebrate the Super bowl win, a parade followed by a huge rally down at the Point. For those of you who don't know what the Point actually is, it is Point State Park, located at the very point where the three rivers meet in the heart of Pittsburgh, though us yinzers know that the place where three rivers meet is also referred to as a confluence, but that is another matter. I wouldn't be surprised to upwards of 100,000 people down there, but that is just a guess on my part, it may be lower since it is a work day after all, but at least one school district around here has cancelled classes for the festivities, and the number of people who went to work the day after the game was remarkably low, which made my job easier last nite, but that is another story.
By the way, another nickel gets added to the change meter, now at $1.53. I have a legitimate shot at 2 dollars by the end of Feb, which is strangely satisfying to me. I need to get a life.
Well, just a few minutes till show time, so I better get settled in here with my coffee and Almond Joy candy bars (mmmmm, coconut).
