Tonight's Topic: "GO HAWKS! to Super Bowl XLIX -- Part 1/2"
Good morning/evening, everybody! Thank you for joining us tonight.
We hope you'll discover something interesting during the time we spend together on the Insomniac Net for the next 90+ minutes.
-- The ever-delightful Shelley [KF7TBA] and just plain old LW [K7LWA] (email K7LWA.INS@gmail.com).

++ "GO HAWKS! to Super Bowl XLIX -- Part 1/2" ++
Tonight's and next week's Friday night's Insomniac Nets are for both football Superbowl fans and non-fans.
As many of you know, last Sunday's NFL Post Season Conference games resulted in the New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks heading to Phoenix, Arizona to meet head-to-head for Super Bowl XLIX (49).
Probably just as many -- if not more -- could care less about any more football or another Super Bowl.
Accordingly, we have provided you a choice of two Questions Sets (QS1 & QS2) -- both with the same Answers.
So depending on your fondness (or not) for the Super Bowl on Feb 1, YOU can pick which Question Set you want to answer.
(Again, regardless of the Questions Set you answer, the correct answers will be the same for either Question Set.)
However, we will only read the Question Set (QS1) about the Seattle Seahawks going to the Super Bowl ("GO HAWKS!").
The other Question Set (QS2) about generic and Trademarked product names is given below -- between the Quote of the Day and the Check-in Roster listing.
(By the way, you can find this Yahoo-groups email posted on our Blog: 2015[04]Q -- Ins-Net Qs for Jan 23, 2015_"GO HAWKS! to Super Bowl XLIX -- Part 1/2".)
So, accordingly, please choose from any of the 3 (reuseable) answers of "A", "B", or "C" (if applicable!) for each question.
Good Luck & GO HAWKS!
