John Bowe (ed): Gig: Americans Talk About Their Jobs

Sarah Vowell: Take the Cannoli
Howard Zinn: People's History of the U.S.
So, like more Americans than I care to imagine, I am watching The O.C. and mocking it.
But after every episode, a day or two later, I start to yearn for some dishy dishy young-horny-teens soap opera. I reflect fondly on Adam Brody. I crave me some Peter Gallagher.
And more than anything, I long to hear those magic words:
"Welcome to the O.C., bitch. This is how it's done in Orange County."
