ShowStarters Monday Jan. 4th, 2013

It was this very day in 2004 that Mark Zuckerberg and three fellow Harvard students launched Facebook... what was the original name?
  • TheFacebook
  • The Hookup
  • Book of Faces

Answer: TheFacebook! If you haven't heard, the website survived and a few people visit it every day.




Number one hits (on this day):

*** "Let Me Love You" Mario (2005)
*** "Together Again" Janet Jackson (1998)
*** "Rock With You" Michael Jackson (1980)

Two robins were lying on their backs, basking in the sun.

A mama cat and her kitten were walking by. The kitten complained, "Mamma, I'm soooo hungry. What can we eat?" To which the mamma cat, spying the two birds, replied, "How about some baskin' robbins?"




And the best Super Bowl commercial...



The Budweiser Clydesdale ad was the best of the best last night, according to the USA Today Ad Meter. The spot, about the bond between a trainer and his horse, barely beat out the commercial from Tide laundry detergent.

I would give the blue ribbon to Chrysler for that two-minute spot about the American farmer featuring the voice of Paul Harvey. Chrysler tugged on the heart strings again with that touching salute to the military featuring the voice of Oprah Winfrey.



My vote for absolute WORST ad of the night goes to Go-Daddy who featured Sports Illustrated Swimsuit covergirl Bar Refaelli french kissing a chubby geek for 18 seconds (with enhanced audio to bring out the smacks and slurps). Thanks for that one while I'm sitting with my kids, Go Daddy.

The game featured:

-- 55 commercials
-- 40 advertisers
-- $4 million per 30 seconds
-- 111 million viewers




Vday Spending Up



Is it the improving economy or just a desire to stay out of the doghouse that is making us spend more on our sweetie this Valentines Day? Valentines Day, believe it or not, is the second largest consumer spending holiday, second only to Christmas. Yikes!

This year the average guy will spend $168.74, and the average women will dish out $85.76.

The survey also found that 20% of us plan to give OUR PETS a gift.




7 things you should have in your car right now



Let's say you're listening to me while you're behind the wheel of your car, and I say something that is (typically) so hilarious that you drive off the road and hit a tree. How long could you survive in this cold? WXYZ in Detroit, where the weather is mighty cold, says these are the 7 essentials for your car right now:

Blanket
LED Flashlight
Bottled Water
Non-perishable food
Flares
Hat
First Aid Kit

Great list... of course, you'd have to use the flares to thaw the bottled water, so bring some extra flares!




She knows you cheated...



Yes, it's true, a woman can tell you cheated just by looking at you. A recent study had a group of men and women look at photos of people, and rate their trustworthiness on a scale of 1 to 10. Some of these photos were of people that admit to cheating.

The results: Women were much better at spotting a cheater than men. Especially when in came to men. They spotted a male cheater in a second. All it took was a three second glance and she knew.

What about men? Men couldn't tell one way or another. Go ahead and cheat ladies, he'll never know. It's wrong, but he'll never know.




Good news, ladies!



There's a reason you live longer than your hubby! A new study found that married women have fewer heart attacks! A doctor studied more than 15,300 people who had heart attacks between 1993 and 2002 and discovered that both married men and women fared best. And it turns out a single woman's risk of heart attack was 65% higher than of her married counterpart --- and a staggering 175% higher chance of it resulting in DEATH.

Why? Experts aren't sure. They think it has something to do with having strong social support, better health habits and less depression.
