Default Guilty pleasure?

I probably shouldn't be admitting this, but my workout today reminded me of it. My iPod finally started working again, and rekindled my weakness for 80's music. But not just any 80's music: Huey Lewis. Seriously, there is nothing that can get me kicking at the end of a hellish 5 mile run like hearing "The Power of Love."

And with that, I'll crawl back into my hole.

What are your guilty pleasures??

Chinese food. Supposed to be a big no-no for me. But once in a while, its a great hot and sour soup, followed by a pu-pu platter, followed by some roast pork lo-mein!

Why feel guilty about a pleasure? Pleasure is great and there ought to be more of it in the world.

OK. At times of stress (like now, as it happens) I walk down the street singing to myself -- often Country and Western (sounds great with a posh Brit accent!) or Everly Brothers. It's a pleasure for me, at any rate.

What are your guilty pleasures??
Oh dear. I have two pleasures that raise eyebrows. One is Football, which makes people look at me like I'm an alien over here. The other is Metal.

My guilty pleasure would have to be acting like a goof at work. Considering my management position it is highly inappropriate for me to be skipping down the hall, doing a couple of Michael Jackson 'Billie Jean' moves, or gimping along like Walter Brennan.

That would be great....but, unfortunately, I think it's closer to thin Jerry Lewis.

Laguna Beach.

I am in my late twenties, but I still watch a reality show about teenagers.

Oh, and Justin Timberlake. A very yummy guilty pleasure
