Riebe’s Artist Materials
Muses flit among Riebe's Artist Materials' bouquets of brushes and kaleidoscopic sprays of pastels, whispering lore accumulated during the shop's 89 years in business. Managers Bob Riebe and Bryan Di Bartolomeo pilot artists of all levels through a sprawling prairie littered with gear including drawing tables, easels, and brushes. After spotting acrylic paints from brands such as Golden and Liquitex, rainbows rush off to change outfits, stomping past an armory of clay-modeling tools and drafting templates.

The Groupon Guide to: Primetime Television
Primetime is the time of day when people watch the most television, falling between dinnertime and family silence hour. Here's a list of primetime show premises that you can use to make your primetime sitcom a hit:
• A single lady living in a city can't find anyone to date, so she has to move into her father's dog's apartment.
• A family full of embarrassing parents, cool teens, and unlimited aunts struggles each week with the teen daughter's decision to get a nose ring.
• Two post-adolescent guys who live together and fix bikes have a crush on the same bike.
• Six sexy friends share life, laughter, and a never-ending supply of sexual tension. They are also all moray eels living in an underwater cave.
• A small town has a football team it loves, until it finds out that the quarterback is dating everyone's wives.
• Two women open a shop that sells small handheld cakes, and one of them has the sassy ability to predict when someone is about to sneeze.
• A tight-knit group of 17 criminal investigators sets out to find out who the killer is but ends up finding out that they're all siblings.
