Number 2, in more ways than one.

====================
SEX, DRUGS & ROCK
====================

MILES:
In a new book released this week, it turns out that Chilean miners trapped underground requested drugs and sex dolls be provided. I was once stuck for 33 days. In my wine cellar. Not trapped, it's just so big it took that long to get to the door. The only essentials I really would have liked were quail's eggs and an avocado slicer...
