That's not my interpretation, and this article seems to confirm that it's Sarah's makeup artist.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.

I believe his implication was that he was getting an incredibly good deal, perhaps to the point of suspicion. I imagine Thursday would have been substantially more expensive, but after Thurs and Sunday, the networks have pretty lousy product, so maybe it's within reason. We do know that 30 seconds during the superbowl averages several million. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She's out of touch. www.abcnews.go.com/GMA/Politics/story?id=6142799&page=1... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.
