zach, zach, he’s the legomaniac!
I’m really more of a duplomaniac.

What do you miss about college?
The area. I loved the Western Massachusetts towns of Amherst and Northampton.
I know this will sound trite, but I also miss learning. I loved going to class, and I miss that a lot, especially some of my favorite professors.
I also miss not paying rent, and draft beer less than six bucks.
And oh, my friends. Did I mention my friends?

If you had to live in another city, where would you go?
What’s one thing people wouldn’t realize by looking at you?
I’ve considered living in San Francisco or a city in the Pacific Northwest — Portland or Seattle.
I prefer savory over sweet, don’t like horror movies or Star Wars. I was an awful student in high school, but got straight A’s...

In the meantime, help me get started.

If you could have an endless supply of any food, what would you get?
Pizza is never bad. Event shitty pizza is still pretty good.

If you could go on vacation for the next month with an unlimited budget, where would you go?
I would ride the rails around the USA. I’d love to take the Empire Builder from Chicago to Portland, and then the train up through the Seattle to Vancouver. I’d also really like to take the Crescent line through New Orleans.

A very interesting article about transferring the Sydney Theater Company’s sold out production of “A Streetcar Named Desire” from BAM to Broadway. Yes, it was as amazing as people say. And no, I can’t get you tickets.

The Brightest Light
There once was a little candle named Blue. Blue lived in a box with his forty-four brothers, all of them waiting for Hanukkah, when the Boy would reach into the box and place them atop the menorah for all the world to see.
But when the first night of Hanukkah came, and the Boy reached into the box, he did not pick Blue. Nor did he pick him on the second night, or on the...

A fantastic list by the Voice, which includes my personal favorites: Brooklyn Inn in Boerum Hill and Brooklyn Social in Carroll Gardens. I’m surprised Clover Club didn’t make the cut, and though I like Spuyten Duyvil, I’m surprised it landed at number one.
