Rob
rob is the one in the yellow tie. he hails from the rough-n-tumble streets of suburban detroit, where people constantly get into "beat it"-style knife-fights. he went to high school with zubin. after graduation, rob moved to ann arbor to begin studying for the mcats. meanwhile, an elusive and echoey voice constantly urged him to form a band. he did. when not tallying (meaning counting - these activities are unrelated to the band), rob contemplates molecular and cellular biology. he may be a doctor one day. rob's songs are specially designed for romantic comedies starring hugh grant. here are some other things about rob: 1. a large baby, rob broke his mom's coccyx during labor. 2. rob is an eagle scout. 3. rob is english for "to steal" 4. rob likes kurt vonnegut, barack obama, and aaron sorkin. 7. npr is the greatest, says rob. 8. rob owns but has never read the following books: 8a. "the federalist papers" 8b. "the tao of pooh" 8c. "the social transformation of american medicine" (a pulitzer prize winner!) 8d. "8d: a study in sub-division" 9. rob isn't a palindrome, but do you know what is? if so, good for you. if not, better luck next time, friend. you'll need it. 10. rob loves you.

sincerely, thomas jefferson.
