    Within reason.

    First of all, we're both really impressed that you've recently started reading nonfiction books. While we love hearing of the trials and tribulations of Katie Kazoo, Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle, Stink, and that wimpy little bastard, it's nice to hear you spouting off facts for a change. And no, [...]

    It's that time of year again: beginning tonight, the NFL expands its programming to three nights a week! Yeah, baby!
