Yeah, that's a very nice perq.
Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Sighhhhhhhh
I need a Petrelli break.
(Though given the choice between a Petrelli break and the chance to smack Mohinder upside the head I'd be torn.)

I was remarking to my roommate that the Wandering Stones must be the most-deserted Irish pub in the history of bars. No wonder they have to turn to crime for a profit....

For that matter, aside from Matt, Monica, and Ando, how many of our "Heroes" have actual job-jobs (as opposed to cover jobs or nefarious work for The Company)?

I assumed they are not a pubkeeping family who turned to crime, but a crime family who run a pub as a cover story.
For camparison, I understand that in real life Al Capone kept a used furniture store as a cover. Every now and then when someone clueless wandered in to price furniture, whoever was there (sometimes Capone himself) would treat them kindly, but honestly admit that neither their quality nor prices were of the best, and that so and so down the road offered better deals. As far as history records, this was more than sufficient to discourage inconvenient interruptions by would-be furniture buyers.

When/how did Micah learn how to play piano? Was it when his parents barely had enough money to keep a roof over their heads? Hmm.
Nikki agreed to Jessica's first mass murder (that we know of) to get money to send Micah to an extremely expensive private school. I got the impression from what Nikki has already spent and still owed for the quarter that is was well above the $20,000 per year mark. So it was likely that piano lessons were offered at that school. Alternatively, if Nikki was spending that much on the private school, she might have thrown in a little extra for piano lessons somewhere else.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Or it's possible that, with Micah's big brain, he learned on his own. Just think what he could do with a player piano!
And, Typo, I love the idea of Al Capone and his "staff" going with the truth in advertising thing.

How freaking adorable was Micah in this episode??? I want one!
And for your Crazy Theory of the day, I'm putting my kittens on Not!Veronica being Bennet's daughter.

Hmmmm . . . but when? Who? Where?
And was she phoning Bennett? Or was she raised by somebody else?
