1. When I was in high school, I aspired to be worthy of my intellectual friends. I would only buy Penguin books, which, for the most part, I had to force myself to read. So silly.

2. I also subscribed to Harpers and Atlantic Monthly, which I always read and enjoyed.

3. Now I belong to a book club and I hardly ever read the books in their entirety. The last book was "Three Cups of Tea." We met at an Indian restaurant, which was the best part. That, and seeing my friends.

4. My first concert was Seals and Crofts. They played in a movie theater, where people actually lit lighters at the end of the concert. Ah...the good old days.

5. I was invited to Billy Joel concerts twice in high school. Both times, my parents found reasons to ground me.
