Fascinating...what does he pitch and why was he in a jail cell. Never heard of him, so if he didn't come down for breakfast...I wouldn't know.

You've obviously never watched really late night TV. The first time I saw him was when he was flogging classified ads. His next deal was 900 numbers. He finally got busted for selling vitamins that were over hyped in claims that they cured diabetes, stroke, heart disease, insomnia, cancer, and arthritis. He was charged with 41 counts of conspiracy, mail fraud, wire fraud, promotional money laundering, and transactional money laundering.

People my age don't watch late night TV unless late night can be somewhere around 8 or 8:30 in the evening. Anyway...sounds like an upstanding kind of guy. Must be his vitamins didn't work very well.

I hear ya. It's a little disconcerting when you go to bed in the summer and you need a fan running to muffle the sounds of the ten-year olds running around the neighborhood.

I have not yet hit 40 and I don't know who he is. On my nights off I also fall asleep by 8pm if not earlier, but I have been on the overnight shift for 7 years now. And the neighbors... don't get me started. Let's just say I really get the urge to mow at 6am.

Because of my roommates and house rules, I have to be in bed before 10 p.m.. As for neighbors, I'd like to rip the basses out of the the cars that drive past. There's a neighbor next to us, but it's a long story. And the ones upstairs are in dire need of soundproofing, as well as learning not to flush other stuff down the toilet--our system is backing up and leaking you-know-what all over our driveway again.
