What is one your guilty pleasures.
Mine is KFC. I know it is bad for you and they are mean to the chickens(from what I have heard).But it is so tasty it is like crack of the fast food world.

4. Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares
I just saw the episode where he says the owner looks like "Shrek in a frock"

Bad but so, so brilliant.

You can watch past episodes on Hulu.com or Fancast.com. I have been watching every day at lunchtime here at the office.

26. I kinda went backwards in my reading material
When I was in my early teens I was reading Kafka, Norman O. Brown, Camus etc, and really didn't bother w/ these kind of books until about 5 years ago when I bought a Brains Benton mystery book (which are fun and well-written) from the early 60's for 50 cents on a lark. I literally was hooked within the first couple of pages and finished it that night, and I've been hooked ever since.

I had a huge score of most of the first edition Chip Hilton books at a thrift store a couple years ago for a ridiculously low price (25 cents a book for 20 books), and I've been taking my time reading them. They really were well written and are a blast to read, and are fairly easy to fine at thrift stores, at least up here.

31. That is very cool.
I wouldn't call that a guilty pleasure though. Why guilt? :)

37. The looks I get sometime by people
When I'm reading them on the bus to and from my day job; I look like what Mrs. E says "a sinister Bruce Willis", so I think they are a little freaked by aterial. Could be in my own mind too, I guess:D

It's pretty pricey, but it lasts a long time and I enjoy it every single time I use it, and am glad it's not full of scary stuff. :)

40. I enjoy watching America's Top Model and American Idol
I especially like watching the first show of the season to pick out who I think could win then the later shows to see how close I've come. The closest I've come on AI is picking a guy (Clay Aiken from season 2) who came in second place and on ATM I picked a gal, (Shandi-from season 2 or 3) who came in third place.

I've lately drifted away from both shows, perhaps catching maybe one or two of either shows over the past couple of years. We can blame MSNBC for that.
