Some people missed the entire halftime show.

I think that I was one of them.

But as an apology, Time Warner Cable sent out $5 Target gift cards to customers living in affected areas.

I have not received my gift card.

How do you feel about this kind of thing, though, this kind of we're sorry, here's $5 to Target, which then means you have to go to Target?

And what can I get from it?

I just think the tiny, this is a tangent, but the tiny rewards that you might think are something.

Those don't mean anything.

They're such a, okay, so I'm going to tell something that I should take to my grave.

But for a very brief time, Lean Cuisine has a rewards program.

They tout it on their box.

Wow.

You can get a little timer in the shape of a tomato.

You can get matching dish towels.

You can get silicone bowls and other stuff.

So I thought, I eat lean cuisines.

I'm just throwing the boxes away when I could be racking up my rewards bonus points.

So I did this for a while, informing Daniel of the loot that would be in our future.

And then I realized...

I can't stand having to cut the cardboard box things and type this in.
