    I always had a crush on Cheryl.

    Had a poster of her on my wall in college.

    Her and a girl with a wet t-shirt from the neck down showing large underneath cleavage and it said in very simple terms "Study Hard" I wish I still had that poster for my LSU room. You know one of my prized possessions to this day is a plastic drinking mug from the 1970's that is of Farah Faucet in her swimming suit. I have had that mug for close to 40 yearsand it is in a primo spot on my bar.. If it were not for my wife you would all meet me on that show hoarders.lol

    I just finished no easy day. Not sure if it's been discussed in this thread. I found it very interesting. Not too amped up about american sniper. I'm sure I'll read it at some point.

    I just started catch 22. I've actually never read it.

    He is a really good writer, Gone baby Gone is one of the books in the series I'm reading now, I burned through the first 3 books in less than 2 weeks. Gone baby gone is taking longer because I'm not as motivated being I saw the movie, but it's still really good.

    He also wrote a bunch of "The Wire" episodes, and the story for the movie "The Drop", which is really a good movie, slow but worth it in the end.
