Happy Birthday, American Style
202 years ago today in Boston, arguably the nation's most well known writer, Edgar Allan Poe, was born.
So today I looked at the TV listing to see what offerings were on in celebration:
A&E (Arts and Entertainment) will celebrate our poet with back to back airings of Dog the Bounty Hunter followed by consecutive reruns of Storage Wars.
Bravo (our other station designed for the arts) will air Top Chef reruns culminating in Restaurant Wars.
SCIFI is airing Ghost Hunters, but nothing special about that, it is their regular Wednesday night thing.
So I will spend the night listening to the Caedmon Edgar Allan Poe Audio Collection, 5 hours of his work read by Basil Rathbone and Vincent Price. And maybe a little Absinthe, as Absinthe makes the heart grow fonder.
