Here's a not so deep, but nonetheless, dark secret.
If I am trolling the channels, I will almost always stop on one of the CSI programs, settle in, hunker down and spend the next hour happily involved in the who, how and why of the crime world.
For those of you who are my more elitist pals- you know- the NPR and Channel 13 only crowd, CSI stands for Crime Scene Investigation.
I think, at this moment in time, the series takes place in New York, Miami, the Navy (wherever they live) and Florence, Italy. Okay, I made up the Florence one, but the thought of the team of forensic specialists crawling around the Uffizi, after having had lunch at La Vecchia Bettola seems to have high appeal, don't you think?
Anyway, I, as you, get hundreds of spam emails daily. My body parts are all the right size, thank you very much, and my bank account information is sacred, so delete, delete. But this week when I received this email, "Want to be a Detective and a Scientist? opened it, read it and did everything in my power to stop myself from signing up. (If you want the link, I'd be happy to oblige).
Maybe it's time to rethink my TV viewing options. Perhaps, I could be the next aging American Idol. Alternatively, maybe I am, clearly, the poster girl, for "Lost".
