House, Crossword Puzzles, and other Stuff

So I'm working on a crossword puzzle from my local newspaper and watching back-to-back episodes of House, M.D., arguably one of the better TV series today.  I figured I could fill you all in on the random, possibly useless information I've learned.
1.  I found out about the TV show "The Facts of Life", a series that aired from 1979 to 1988.  Supposedly there are now DVDs of the episodes.  More info at:
2.  I finally found out that the Taj Mahal was not a wedding present but rather a memorial and mausoleum.  More info at:
3. "numbers pro", 3 letters may be "CPA": Certified Public Accountant
There's an American Institute of Certified Public Accountants; their website is http://www.aicpa.org/
4.  Alfred Noyes (1880-1958) wrote "The Highwayman"
Website to check out: "Poem of the Week"
(this specific link is to the poem "The Highwayman")

There's more, but I'm bored.

Oh, and by the way, there a bunch of great websites that can help you out with crossword puzzles.  The one I generally use is OneAcross.com.
