Another homage to people I know, I suppose:
But even after controlling for nearly all imaginable variables - socioeconomic status, level of physical activity, number of close friends, quality of social support and so on - the researchers (a six-member team led by psychologist Charles Holahan of the University of Texas at Austin) found that over a 20-year period, mortality rates were highest for those who had never been drinkers, second-highest for heavy drinkers and lowest for moderate drinkers.
Apparently 1-3 drinks per day is considered "moderate". News to me...
Why I'll be voting against Gray shortly:
Gray's appreciation for the HBO series is such that when the Sex and the City 2 movie came out earlier this year, Gray even snuck out of work to catch it at Gallery Place. Alone.
Hmm. Guess I'll be voting for the creepy Oberlin graduate!
This perversely reminds me of the time Brad rolled up to a seven-eleven, chatted up a hot girl*, and walked her to her house before consuming his spicy bite at home. If only this troubled youth had had a better role-model!
I guess the issue might be related to his penchant for the 80s combined with a serious case of "emotional instability".
Zero legs of the triangle for him!

totally fictional serial killers - like, I don't know - Patrick Bateman.
Incidentally, I hated every single one of his other books that I've read. But that one was amusing, if only for the awesome rhapsodizing about Phil Collins.
Today was an epic day for posting. I've commented twice here and even posted once there. Must be some sort of record.
My first thought is that serial killers could peg all three:
I think "emotionally stable" could be replaced to say "boring" and you'd get the same effect. Which is to say, who needs anyone who's emotionally stable?
Apparently, the Tea Parties have a rather limited space in DC they feel safe in:
If you are on the subway stay on the Red line between Union Station and Shady Grove, Maryland. If you are on the Blue or Orange line do not go past Eastern Market (Capitol Hill) toward the Potomac Avenue stop and beyond; stay in NW DC and points in Virginia. Do not use the Green line or the Yellow line. These rules are even more important at night. There is of course nothing wrong with many other areas; but you don't know where you are, so you should not explore them.
Someone recommending the Red line over the Green/Yellow line, eh? Click the link above to see the helpful map and other "tips".
