Nick's initial reaction: "It's like I should be locked in a room, my mug filled with coffee, and told to get to work." I thought it would be more like what the proctor for a standardized test might have with them for the intolerable three hours and change--coffee to fight the butt-crack of dawn wake-up and extra pens in case a test taker forgot theirs.
Much like a guy standing next to a souped-up sports car that's not his own to attract women, Nick also thought he could parade around his office with this mug and hit on the women there--pretending he is a law school graduate. "I'm a Juris Doctor of Love."

-They say men think about sex 98% of the time. Since you lived in Georgia, how much of the time was Georgia on your mind?: When you live in Georgia, I think you're thinking about sex even more because of all the cute southern belles in their little dresses. When you're away from the state, I would say Georgia's on your mind a lot more...because of the belles.
-You were a rower. Is it more like powering a Viking ship or a bunch of guys singing "Row, Row, Row Your Boat" and sipping on champagne coolies?: Rowing is definitely tougher than it looks. It's not like Ryan Gosling in The Notebook. I'd say more toward the Viking ship idea.
-You can transpose anything you hear on the radio to playing it on the piano. What's your musical guilty pleasure?: Oh, anything Lady Gaga. [click here to listen to Nick's Lady Gaga piano medley]
