  3. Deadbolt - "Tiki Man"
  4. The Police - "Greatest Hits"

Tubers

...wherein local TV connoisseurs intimate what keeps them on their couches.

  1. "Arrested Development" "It's the only smart comedy on television that's not on cable. I have cable, but I don't support that kind of thing. My fiance likes watching the Food Network."
  2. "Seinfeld" "Best show ever made. George Costanza is the best sitcom character of all-time."
  3. "The Office" "It's kind of like the Christopher Guest mockumentaries, but a sitcom. It's not like classic 'Monty Python' British comedy."

Bound Up

Currently reading: "Titan: The Life of John D. Rockefeller, Sr." by Ron Chernow "I really like books on the Industrial Revolution. I don't why, but that stuff fascinates me. The buildings look so cool and everything was black and white."

One book everyone should read: "The Devil in the White City: Murder, Magic, and Madness at the Fair That Changed America" by Erik Larson "For someone with more than a passing interest in The Gilded Age, it will more than satisfy you. It's got a murder and shit about architecture."
