if we ignore him will he go away?

brett's farve-teen minutes of fame were up farve minutes ago:

It seemed everyone and their uncle was talking about Brett Favre yesterday. I promised my listeners I wouldn't. Told them I was tired of the whole on-again, off-again shenanigans of Green Bay's former quarterback turned Minnesota Viking.

However, for an hour yesterday afternoon, I read the current time with a slight twist.
"It's now Favre-fifteen" and "It's Favre-thirty", etc.

When the temperature reached the mid-70's, I announced that it was seventy-Favre degrees.
