Do we love to solve puzzles or do we love puzzle solvers?
I have been watching those T.V. Seres House M.D. and there are even books out that talk about his medical history (I am a fan of medical thriller books, medical books in general) and this just intrigued me.

Re: What music are you currently listening to?
On the way to work I was listening to Michael Buble and Billy Joel. You can't go wrong with Billy Joel! I started listening to Michael Buble on the radio and really liked his voice-like a cross over of Harry Connick Jr. and a young Frank Sinatra. Billy Joel, well, he's Billy Joel!

Re: Assassin's Creed: Renaissance
Working at the library, I get to see what a lot of people to read, and the majority of young men love reading books that are from video games. American/Japanese video games, doesn't matter to them. As long as there is action and they can play it, it's their favorite book to read by candlelight!
