What could be better than books on TV?

It’s Friday, the weekend is almost upon us, and you know what that means—Book TV. Yes, if you’re nerd enough to watch C-SPAN 2 (the second of three Cable-Satellite Public Affairs Network feeds) you’ll know that it covers the US Senate during the week and devotes itself to non-fiction authors on the weekend.

Mary and I have printed the schedule, highlighted all the authors we want to hear, and have the popcorn ready to go for good stuff like Jonathan Eig’s, Opening Day: The Story Of Jackie Robinson’s First Season…the only thing better would be a Ken Burn’s marathon.

Apparently, there are other diversions going on. Something called the NBA is doing something…I don’t know what. I understand that David Stern (whoever he is) is a doodyhead in Phoenix. Strong words.

Embrace your inner geek. Have a good weekend.
