Several weeks ago I saw a piece of paper on the desk of one of my co-workers. Curious, I stole a glance to see what was on it. It was a typed list of TV shows that air during the week. He watches so many (18!) that he needed to make a schedule for himself to keep track of them all. Apparently, sidewalkers prefer "living" through fictional characters...
