I read Sex, Drugs, & Cocoa Puffs a few months ago. Good stuff. Klosterman has a steel-trap mind when it comes to obscure pop analysis and useless information. He's from North Dakota originally, but I think he went to school somewhere in Ohio. I'm surprised I haven't hung out with him before. Just bought Klosterman IV but haven't got past the first chapter. Which, by the way, is about Britney Spears and is dead on (especially with the recent pictures that have been floating around).
