In his monologue last night Jay Leno explained how he came to do the Super Bowl commercial with Oprah Winfrey and David Letterman. Jay said he and Dave had lost touch over the years: "Letterman and I hadn't seen each other in over 18 years. We lost touch. He found me on Facebook. He made a friend request, I accepted, and we hooked up and watched the game."

American Airlines will now charge $8 for a blanket and pillow on domestic flights lasting longer than two hours.
USA Today reports:
Beginning May 1, coach passengers on American's domestic flights that last more than two hours, as well as those on flights to Hawaii, Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean and Central America, will have to pay $8 for a blanket and inflatable neck pillow. The airline will throw in a $10 off coupon for purchases of more than $30 at Bed Bath & Beyond stores.
*****
On domestic flights of less than two hours, coach passengers won't have access to blankets at all. Premium-class passengers on all American flights and coach passengers on longer international flights will continue to get free blankets and pillows.
"Everything we do is evaluated in terms of what's best economically for the company while still providing services customers want," says American spokeswoman Andrea Huguely.
"I don't think it's an unreasonable fee," says Henry Harteveldt, travel industry analyst at Forrester Research. "It gives the passenger some control. If they want a blanket they can pay extra for it; if not, they didn't pay for it as part of their fare."
Airlines are scrambling to find new and larger sources of "ancillary" revenue -- money paid for services or items other than a seat. The Centre for Asia Pacific Aviation expects airlines globally to take in $58 billion in ancillary revenue this year -- 12% of their total expected revenue.
Air travel gets more obnoxious each month it seems. Filthy planes, poor air circulation, no leg room, delayed flights, lost luggage and security delays have turned air travel into something miserable. Charging for a germ-filled blanket is just adding insult to injury.

Super Bowl 44 was the most watched tv program in U.S. history. The BBC reports that the viewership of 106.5 million people eclipsed that of the Mash final in 1983.
The figure tops the 1983 finale of medical drama M*A*S*H which drew 105.97 million viewers. The previous Super Bowl record was last year's game between Pittsburgh and Arizona, watched by 98.7 million.
There had been much interest in the game between The Colts - considered the favourites after winning the title just three years ago - and The Saints who were appearing in their first NFL title game.
The Saints' resurgence had been seen as a mirror of the ongoing recovery of New Orleans after the devastation of Hurricane Katrina in 2005, and the underdogs' story propelled viewership.
The Super Bowl was extra compelling because of the New Orleans Saints. Many people were hoping the Saints would pull of the upset because it would be a good thing for the city of New Orleans, which is still recovering from Hurricane Katrina.
