Eight TV Shows I Love To Watch:

1. The Office (yessshh)
2. Arrested Development (too clever for its own good)
3. 30 Rock (has overtaken the Office as the funniest comedy on television)
4. 24 (as ludicrous as the plot gets, Jack Bauer is still the man)
5. Lost (I enjoy it but don't bother to try and unravel the show's mysteries)
6. Friday Night Lights (criminally neglected show - derived from a good movie and great book of the same name)
7. BYU football (technically not a show, but who cares?)
8. Sportscenter

Eight Restaurants I Love:

1. Tucanos (para matar a saudade)
2. Carl's Jr. (the western bacon cheeseburger is all I need)
3. The Lotus Garden (good Chinese buffet on Center Street in Provo)
4. Golden Corral (favorite place to eat as a skinny and ravenous child)
5. Rodizio de pizza in Ribeirao Preto, Brazil (think Tucanos but with pizza)
