It’s a whole new week, everybody. February is officially in full swing, especially now that the Super Bowl just wrapped up. Oh, I’m sure half of America will be discussing how Green Bay deserved this wonderful honor, and I’m sure the other half will be angry the hard-working Steelers did not come out on top. There might also be the small demographic who complains about how Wiz Khalifa did not play the halftime show. But, the game is over, so now it’s back to reality. Or is it? You could always take a long memory relapse into… Cluster 1! Believe us, it’s quite a trip today.
