somewhat mit perhaps

i'm reading a book right now called "The Reality TV Handbook"

amongst other delights, it tells you how to:
-fly under the radar
-form an alliance (and keep it)
-use alcohol to your advantage
-display emotion on cue
-lie and get away with it
-discern whether your date is actually wealthy
-make fire
-swallow a live bug

this actually might come in handy in REAL life...
