#6: The New Technocrats

Soon, oh so very soon, we’re getting a new computer system. Not that you all should care (you shouldn’t really). But in honor of us getting computerified and all, I’ve been going over the last six years of sales, and I've compiled the Sub Super Six Sellers of All Time. Today begins the countdown.


Chuck Klosterman Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs


Chuck K. is the new kid on the block in terms of this list. We first started selling SDCP less than a year ago and it’s been a non-stop favorite ever since. He covers a lot of pop culture ground here: Saved by the Bell, the Sims, heavy metal cover bands, pretentiousness, and so on. It’s a quick read that can be read out of order, and it makes a great loaner for friends (though they might not give it back). Heck, it graced Kelly’s staff pick shelf for months. How can you go wrong? Next up…number 5’s agenda.

Yes, Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs is living in The Village now, trying to find out who Number 1 is and why Number 2 is different every week. Watch out, Number 6, there's a Rover coming! Oh, it's just Javier.
