Super Security
Over the course of the last few days we have had the fortunate opportunity to see some of the amazing security measures taken here at the site of Super Bowl XLII. In fact, throughout the Phoenix Metro Area, security is tight. At the PGA golf tourney, official hotels, team training sites, even at the parties, security is all over the place. Specifically here in Glendale, Customs and Border Protection has some amazing new high tech scanners in place. Also ICE is conducting raids, ATF and FBI have provided significant help in the effort. We got an amazing Fly Along in the new Customs and Border Protection Blackhawk Helicopters as they help enforce air security and a 35 mile radius no fly zone. Here’s a behind the scenes look.

Mascot for today
Kathy–
I posted somewhere a thank you for the picasa link– much appreciated–
say hi to Leftie–
Alfredo–
Carla is a pretty name too–
I just saw your video– the people trying to get milk– Now did I hear correctly- Chavez just gave Nicaragua millions of dollars? And they are stopping the buses used for transporting food? And one chicken has to feed a family with ten kids? This is unreal– to minimize it– I like the one girl’s declaration– she wasn’t afraid to stand up to Chavez– This is pathetic– And this has been going on for weeks– I am very angry! Someone needs to get Venezuela some food– but Chavez will prevent this– that President is beyond locura–
I can feel your anxiety– Poor kids– they are going to have malnutrition at this rate– and then disease will start– and given the poor health care system- the numbers are going to start and go higher—
————————————————————————————————————–
Jen-
Rob says hi– he is fixing Ken and himself breakfast– Ken gets a good breakfast when Rob is here- as to his high fiber cereal I give him everyday–
I was going to tell you what he is fixing but now I feel guilty- watching Alfredo’s video–
Shamefully– it is a good breakfast– I don’t eat breakfast– I get full and want to sleep- so I usually eat a few hours into the day– I have to feel hungry-
xxxxxxx
Charlotte, Susan names i love Carla like the new French president gorgeus wife, model Carla Bruni, I also like Camila, have a niece with that name, and th other one is named Paola, like also Carlota, like the mother of Price Raniero of Monaco.
Must be the Italian and Spaniard influence we have.
Check out the new French First Lady, an Italian!!!
My Brothers, Augusto, Leonardo and César.
mama has good taste!!
Hello Rob Susan’s Friend—-
I’m her friend too!
Enjoy your evening together and help her fold the laundry and do the dishes!! She’s had a tough week!
————————————————————————–
Avi-
I will leave this here, in case you come back to check….. Don’t know what book you are reading for the Holocaust, but the book Night by Elie Wisel is a must. He lived it, he knows. Be good my Young friend.
Susan: I think i might be left handed, but trained so i can write with my right, i can write with both hands. I can also write with my feet! Maybe i’m just ambidextrous.
DH is a lefty too. Susan did you use picasa? I downloaded when I was trying to combine a new camera pix and old camera pix. I like it more than any other one I have used.
Yep Lefty and I are tied at the hip, maybe foot and paw.
I like the story of Charlotte’s Web. Of course a spider web can be a dangerous thing for innocent creatures; they may fly into the web and get caught.
But in the story of Charlotte’s Web, she is a Hero, she helps others and says nice things in her web.
oops-
Leftie knows …..
Kathy–
I like Leftie– I am left handed–
Leftie know a good thing and is afraid it is going to go away– like little children when they cry when mom and dad leave- until they become teenagers and beg for mom and dad to leave
Charlotte–
You are way cool- name my daughter after you– 56 here in a few months– maybe I can suggest to my daughter when she settles down and has kids- Charlotte is a good name– I like that name- and I like the name Christina too- Pretty names– soft-
Alfredo– I know Adam hasn’t forgotten Venezuela– as a matter of fact- he is even willing to risk his life to go back to Venezuela– he said something like- I won’t be going there real soon- when the guy from Mass. asked him about Venezuela– Note- Adam didn’t say- I can’t go back- he said- not immediately– The man has guts!
xxxxx
You all have been very busy! Susan Lefty has to learn to stay with the rest of the family. No idea how to do that though.
Nice to hear about the excitement.
Alfredo,
I can only read English is there a site that has English about your plight? I have no doubt El Diablo is ruining any amount of wealth people once had, look at Cuba. My prayers are with the people of Venizula.
lol– true story– I flagged him down– what was my excuse? Help me– My friend here can only walk short distances–
it’s true– it takes us an hour to walk a block- You should see us at the grocery store– I walk ahead of him as he pushes the cart and then I lose him and I am hollering all over the store- Ken- where are you? People stare– Rob says my house is funnier than the Osborns-
Today at the grocery store, Ken had the cart- I make him carry the groceries from the cart to the car– arm excerise- so I went out to the car and opened the trunk- Ken comes out and says to me- the lady wanted to know if I had a receipt– I looked at him and said- “What- is she like a pendeja? You shoplifted all this stuff and then bagged it and walked out?” The guy getting out of his car heard me- and cracked up– We have so much fun together– I love my Ken-
OK– too much fun here too–
Tamera- posts some pictures— plzzzz–
I better go do my lasagna thing–
have fun you guys!!! My leg hurts– I wonder what bit me? Kathy- a spider?
This is Rob, Susan’s friend of 24 some years. It’s true about Susan. She is a “real” person and has a nack for befriending officers of the law. Why it was just on the 4th of July that we gort a first class ride to the front row to watch the fire works, then we got a ride back. We thought it was cool when he turned on the siren and flashed the lights. Have fun at the Super Bowl tomorrow. We’ll be watching from Susan’s house just 5 miles away. Rob
Alfredo,
You and your people will NEVER be forgotten. We might go to different stories for a time. But that does not mean that we have forgotten you.
I pray for you and your situation constantly.
Tammy
Adam made a new post, it’s a cool one, no pun intended
Terri… i was laughing because of your post… i was agreeing
Alfredo… thanks for posting that link, I promise you none of us will forget about Venezuela! Adam always gives us coverage of Venezuelan because it’s such an important topic and always new controversy going on there. Anytime you have any updated information please post it in here.
How did it go with the bank robbery by you? Last I heard they were caught when the officials cut off the ambulance.
Children die of hunger, in this towns in Mara, Venezuela.
Where is the revolution for the poor? While revolutionary military men own Lambhorginis, and Venezuela is giving away millions of dollars a month, free oil t poor in the USA
This brakes my heart. no food, nothing.
funeral hme sell more than 35 children caskets a month.
for those of you that understand spanish.
pass it around please.
Susan,
Don’t you just love it when someone is as nice as you thought he’d be.
Thank you for your compliment on my name. You have my permission to name your daughter after me.
Patti!!!
Alfredo–
no way– get us back on track– and Adam said after the Super Bowl he is going to post more stuff about his Guyana– so I will be back hating Chavez–
By the way– yesterday– We brought up Chavez– I was telling these guys from Mass. how Adam had gone to Venezuela and he is now a persona non grata– so you are not forgotten–
saludos–
al rato- voy a regresar a leer lo que puso– tengo que ir a la tienda- tengo horas diciendo esto
Y me imagino, que me va entrar la rabia otra vez–
Terri-
you too are nice– and pretty–
I am getting out of here– I love you guys– you are the best-
Adam, Susan, Rod, Tammy, Karen, look at what is going on in Venezuela, months without milk, sugar, rice, toilette paper, and look at the video when a supermarket has some milk.
for those who want a revolution here, see for yourself and think twice.
that happened in Valencia.
http://www.noticierodigital.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=334930
Don’t forget about us.
Terri!!
Well you know that old saying Susan…
It’s nice to be important…
but
IT’S IMPORTANT TO BE NICE!
*wink*
Susan: fold what?
patty: here’s some kleenex
Susan,
Here’s the thing though…the true measure of a reporter isn’t how he or she performs on the jobs they love. It’s how they do on the ones they hate, or are indifferent to. I think Adam should be over at the 16th doing live shots after every foursome goes through
-Rod-
Uh oh. He’s dead meat. Pulled it long and left on the 16th…they’ll eat the poor guy alive.
Avi.. isn’t it baseball where they do the big screen thing, someone is always proposing?
Tamera would be off guard with a football game! *evil grin*
I can say one thing about Adam.. besides he’s very handsome…
I don’t think I’ve ever seen him smile so much while reporting… this Super Bowl deal is suiting him nicely.
Avi… he dang well better tell us WHEN to watch!!!!!! *L*
*pushing susan out the door*
Sorry, you were saying? Oh yeah. THANK YOU
My attention is on the FBR this afternoon. There’s more people watching golf today than there will be at the Super Bowl. -Rod-
Actually Charlotte– to be honest- I thought Adam might have been arrogant– you should have seen some of the media there– they were either nice or conceited–
Adam falls into the extremely nice category–
I like your name-
It would be funny if Adam propsed to Tamara on Fox… with 90 million people watching lol !
Charlotte–
he truly is– I feel people out and there is not one phony bone in that man-
Now the security guard- SAFE- he is in big trouble– I called SAFE this morning and boy oh boy– teach him- wanna be cop-
(There was a security guy yesterday who was a jerk)
Susan,
I’ve been watching you “stalk” Adam these last few days. Congratulations! Thank you for letting everybody know he is as wonderful as you imagined he’d be.
Poor Ken– he is sitting waiting to go to the store–
bye- xxxxxx
Patty–
they have been together three years- and she is use to his erratic schedule- why not? No one else is going to like his in and outs- plus she is adorable- and they will have cute kids–
(I checked out her pictures on the site Max posted for Dereck to see– she and her sister are like funny– their poses for the camera- this is where I found out she got a degree in Psychology)
John Hook told me yesterday- since his marriage a few years ago, he has three kids now- twins- and one- so if he can do it, Adam can–
sorry Adam– Word Press made me do it-
Susan, do ya think before we get them hitched, we oughta get them engaged? *LOL*
sorry adam/tamera the keyboard made me do it!
Rod–
You will also be getting your package next week– I have it in my car to mail Monday along with some stuff for my brother– might as well do it all at once- and some mail for a couple of my friends here–
Terri–
xxxxxxx– wouldn’t it be cool if Adam had his own spot- and Tamera could co-anchor with him– she can do the psychology part- as this was her major–
Sure, Susan, send whatever you like. -Rod-
Miss Mowry-
xxxxxxx
You and Adam are the best– Although you two aren’t as hefty as Isabel Bloom’s guys
I hope when you two get married, I am invited to the wedding– or at least I have lots of wedding pictures–
I wish you had been there yesterday
I love you both,
xxxxxxxxoooooo
If you people want a little light reading, try Alexsandr Solzhenitsn’s The Gulag Archipelago…
-Rod-
I meant to say- he joined the army and ended up having to be Fox’s bodyguard-
Rod–
hey there– will check it out over there– I have to send the picture of Adam and Dave to my brother– so I will have to head over there– do you want a picture of these guys?
Half of my shots didn’t show up– I wonder what I did wrong with the camera? oh well- I got some- so I am blessed!
Fahrenheit 451 was a great book– burning of the books–
Brave New World is another good one–
I use to read?
Hey Susan,
How goes it? You have mail… -Rod-
Kathy–
where are my manners? Thanks so much for the picasa link– way thanks–
are you still juggling?
Adam–
I posted this last night but Word Press was being mean– I met a guy when I was doing food and margaritas who told me he was Vincente’s Fox body guard and he did not like Vincente– Apparently Vincente shut down a Ford plant and over 3,000 people were out of jobs and he was one of them– And then he joined to the army to be Fox’s body guard–
———————————————————————————
time to hit the store and buy the lasagna stuff from Jen’s great recipe-
read to kill a mockingbird a few times …. it was okk
patty,
Fahrenheit 451 read it last year….. bored me in the begining then it got good….
Patty,
the only book of those that i have to read in lord of the flies ( for literaure class)
the others are for online highschool…
Susan,
Tamera here! Got your present and its just adorable. Thank you sooo much!
xoxo
That was nice of you to write a letter, Susan!
You really are such a nice person.
You’re a little cheerleader… ya know.
Susan.. I didnt have time for the hardy boys, there were REAL boys! *LOL*
Susan… wow bringing back memories! The original Fahrenheit 451 also.
One Flew is Jack’s BEST!!! *S*
Amazing, all the school’s read the same books, doesn’t matter what side of world its on!
DC and Marvel comic books rock–
Patty–
Don’t forget To Kill a Mockingbird– we had to read that– but I love the movie– Gregory Peck?
We also had to read One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest for a psych class– Now– I think this is Jack’s best performance– oh and The Shining– those two girls in the hall scared the chara out of me–
Ken is my spell check at this moment– he knows how to spell mockingbird–
Oh yes– Catcher in the Rye– we had to read that one too-
Fun reading for me was Nancy Drew– I use to try to think I was her– and I had a crush on The Hardy Boys
Jen….. did you see the chocolate football this am with Brian from F&F?
i giggled, thought of you… we could so some serious “football damage” with that!!!
Avi…
i read these in high school also (and yes the wheels were round back then!)
Lord of the Flies
Of Mice and Men
The Great Gatsby
Kathy-
Adam is a spectacular reporter!— ditto!
Max…hand me one please
Can we all go back to p*ssing and moaning about stuff, this sappy stuff is getting to me!!!!!
ha ha ha ha ha
and if Jen converts….humph…..i wont like her anymore! *giggling*
wow, i’ve spent way too much time today in the tax stuff!!!
and Terri–
there was a like a gated fence between Adam and me– the one picture- the goofy one of me– I was leaning against Adam– but you can’t tell
xxxxxx
Terri is on CNN again tomorrow for those who missed it Thursday– it is an interesting topic too– as it affects us all–
Kathy–
read your latest– solution– You will have to take Leftie everywhere you go
$500 bucks–wowie- I thought I was doing good with my tips– you are not allowed to tip there so I was shoving money in pockets– Ken and I didn’t go inside so I took our entrance money and tipped the cart guy and the guy who found me a spot to park–
Jen honey– I am doing Super Bowl here tomorrow and I am making lasagna- again– these people haven’t had your lasagna so it will be a Lasagna Experience-
Well- off to the store- and clean this house– I have a bed here with about two weeks of laundry piled up–
Max- get over here and fold- plzzzzzz
Avi– I LOVE Lord of the Flies–
I have read the Great Gatsby and Of Mice and Men too-
Avi–
Adam mentioned on one of his blogs- John Grisham– and a new book came out- The Appeal of which I had a hunch Adam had not bought it yet– and I was right–
Tamera’s present was from all of us-
————————————————————————————————————-
Adam–
Ken remembered you– I can’t believe it– he has no memory– I asked him if he remembered you and he said– I think so- Didn’t I met him yesterday at the game?– So he got the game part wrong– but this is good because he thinks he went to a game- lol
I just emailed Fox-
To Whom It May Concern:
I had the pleasure of meeting Adam Housley yesterday at the NFL Experience.
Adam Housley is one of the nicest people I have ever met. Not only is he an excellent correspondent but he is detached from arrogance as some news media people are. I was extremely impressed with his fine manners as I noted he talked to people passing by. He took the time out to acknowledge us as if we were special people.
I would like for these comments to be noticed by someone high up in Fox. I think it would be wonderful for Adam Housley to have his own spot on Fox as he would attract many viewers from all over the world. Adam Housley is an asset to Fox.
Thank you,
Susan Corral
Susan! Full of energy?? GET OUT!
*wink*
What did I miss? Oh Adam posted! Poultry meeting was fab, glad I went. I learned a bunch of things.
Not surprised Susan is full of energy!
If Jen is converted than Adam is a spectacular reporter!
Adam,
HAHAH you survived lol…. Susan what book did you give him?
speaking of book i have like 5 + to read this semester for both schools
Lord of the Flies
A raisin in the sun
Of Mice and Men
some holocaust book
The Great Gatsby
and more
and everything else …… cosemek
Watching your live shot Adam… wow that’s expensive!! $500 for Super 8
Go Giants!!
Eric–
I keep calling you Keith– what is with that?
I’m glad everyone had a good time!
Susan: do you need some kleenex?
OOPS– Have a good time tomorrow–
now that you have converted a couple of your bloggers here (Jen for one) to liking football, don’t forget pictures of tomorrow’s event– as I will only see it from the screen here-
And I guess Monday, it is back to work for me when you post the serious stuff-
Darn, I was having fun with you here-
To all- thanks soooooooooo much for those nice comments- especially the ones on the slide show- there were a couple people who I hadn’t seen here on the blog- that was cool-
Just for you strangers– you need to know- Adam is truly a nice man– and he doesn’t forget his bloggers or the names here-
Adam–
You just made me cry– I am waaaing away here-
I love you and everyone who works with you– truly-
And a good time tomorrow– it is going to be a mad house– The nice officers were telling me they couldn’t wait until it was over so they could go home and spend the day with their family-
I emailed you two shots– to your winery– one is of you and Dave– I hope he sees it-
thanks again – so much–
Can I start complaining again? How come I didn’t get to ride with you in the helicopter?
Max….
Hmmmmm. We may have to work on that. You don’t sound like girl to me. lol
I’m off to do pre-game shopping. ……. *go giants*
Tammy–
That happened last year at our church. They had a big party for the youth and invite your friends you know….the issue was the size of the screen showing the game I think. So they pulled the plug on the big screen.
And the idea of football is all about teamwork?? lol
I don’t imagine anyone’s voices, not sure why not. In my head everyone sounds like me.
A person couldn’t ask for a better review than that!!!
And she came bearing gifts; what a generous soul.
Adam……..I love the part about knowing it was her just by the voice….I have assigned voices to everyone here too. What hoot!
Susan,
Great slideshow!
Rod…*LOL* quit that!
Adam YEA!!!!!!!!!
*giggling*
i just cant see susan any other way than what you describe. No pretenses what so ever. I’m glad she is a “real” person!!!
and you too Adam!
Nice to hear you had a good time Adam
Well – gotta go make the family lunch. See ya later.
Adam
That would make a GREAT T-Shirt! “I met Susan…and Survived”
Avi,
Yeah.
_________________
Okay what the heck is up with the NFL going after churches who are having super bowl parties? Do these people have nothing better to do?
Tammy,
God bless your husband
Avi,
Retread = My husband spent 14 years in the military. Got out because his wife (not me) had a nervous breakdown and he was trying to save their marriage. She was having an affair and left him anyway. STUPID woman she lost one awesome man!!
10 years later – he re-enlisted in the National Guard.
That equals RETREAD.
Adam sure does have a cute smile …. and Susan, you look so cute AND HAPPY!
I thought for sure the pic of you and Adam would have been of you hugging him. *giggles*
I would have gotten a “hug pic”.
I do think it would be great if Adam did post the pic of you all standing together.
Thanks for sharing Susan I am awaiting Adam’s next post! Come on Adam!
cool pics
Susan, those were great pics! Was that big guy Adam’s bodyguard? We need him safe from all the wild and crazy fans…or maybe just from Hugo! ha
Susan: Awesome slide shows!
Thanks for going ‘boots on the ground’ for us, Susan……………..I’m not insinuating anything here, ………it’s just a figure of speech in time of war.
Looks like you had a great time and I can’t wait to hear from Adam regarding the encounter. I noticed he tried to escape via a Blackhawk, to no avail………..
Avi…………Happy belated birthday, my man.
http://www.slide.com/r/CMrG9DFEtD8hQ3mSrer7kKI2v5_ZOi-0?previous_view=mscd_embedded_url&view=original
Hopefully these follow together- with my preceding post and this one-
Here are the both slide shows
http://www.slide.com/r/EE8D0fjrpj8fFUifgPrqDBGTOrfuDxD3?previous_view=mscd_embedded_url&view=original
I find some of these quotes just might be a bit of Adam
KT–
Adam is way cool– I can’t even begin to tell you what a wonderful person he is-
If he doesn’t compliment us personally, he has New York to deal with- but he sure loves his friends here– and I don’t mean me- I mean all of you-
He is a good man-
I hope you meet him- you will see what I saw today– and his crew– these guys are a trip- they range from different ages to different personalities– I caught the bird’s eye-
Adam is awesome! Pretty eyes- pretty skin- and such an angelic demeanour to him- he was so cool talking with people on the street- and he was soooooooo tired- but he runs on high energy!
good, good man—
I was soooooo impressed–
That was great slide show Susan!!!!!!
Adam– your post- Super Security
I bet you guys flew over Ken’s mom’s house- lol
I live within ten miles of Luke Air Force Base– I am going to head over there next week and take some shots— It is on the way to the Wild Life Zoo
cool video– when did you manage to put this into your agenda?
