I'm surprised no one's mentioned Jsdfjk Bwsefhjkler in guitarists! (you pretentious fucks! :) ) But seriously, one of my favorite guitarists is Marc Ribot because of just how understated his playing is. He never wanks all over songs, instead choosing to put choice, often simple patterns into songs. He could just get up there and do 19-finger, two-testicle tapping on 128-th note runs, but instead he just plays those nice little understated junkyard riffs that so perfectly compliment Tom Waits, etc. 2nd Person Books: My favorite series of second-person books is the "Choose your own adventure" series. "You wake up in a small, damp cave. Outside, you hear rushing water. There's a lightbulb hanging on a string and a rotary hatch on a door." "If you open the hatch, turn to page 27. If you investigate the light bulb, turn to page 23." :) andrew
