Q&A with CHRISTIE
KELLEY

Q: What song do you put on when you’re driving in your car?

A: Whatever song happens to be on the radio. For long trips, I’ll plug in my
iPod.

Q: What is your favorite Classic TV Show?

A: Cheers

Q: What is your favorite current TV Show?

A: Supernatural

Q: Tell us about your favorite pair of shoes?

A: I’m really not a big shoe person. I know that’s hard to believe! What makes
this even harder to believe is I used to work for a shoe store in college. My
current favorite pair of shoes are a pair of Aerosoles sandals that I’ve had
for five years. This year they decided to start to wear out so now I’ll have

Q&A with ALLEGRA
GRAY

Q: What song do you put on when you’re driving in your car?

A: I have a significant commute, so it usually goes something like this: before
kids are dropped off, children’s songs or Disney (sometimes they’ll let me talk
them into Sheryl Crow). After kids get dropped off, current rock/pop station
until it goes to commercial, then station-surfing because I can’t stand commercials,
then the classical station (I especially like Rachmaninoff).

Q: What is your favorite Classic TV Show?

A: Tough one..I’m a pretty on-the-go person, and the idea of sitting still
long enough to watch a TV show (especially an old one) is kind of foreign to
me. I do like movies though (usually action or fantasy).

Q: What is your favorite current TV Show?

A: Again, I don’t watch much, but I do like the show…

RICKLOFF

A: I keep a few mix CD’s of everything from classic 80’s hits I
grooved to in high school to the latest Coldplay, Vampire Weekend, and DMB singles.

in front of the computer working.

them out of the closet.

Q: What is the worst job you ever had?
