ABOUT BRAND
The name Gevril benchmarks fine taste, a quality born of exquisite workmanship and distinguished style. Born in La Chaux-de-Fonds in the Le Locle Valley, Jacques Gevril began his career in the mid-1700’s as a restorer of timepieces. He was a sought-after master of horology, and in 1743 he created his first Chronometer. Most notably, Gevril became the first exporter of Swiss Timepieces when he was called upon by His Majesty the King of Spain in 1758 to produce a personal timepiece. Gevril set out for Madrid on an historic journey to present his masterpiece, impressing the King who was so astounded by Gevril’s talent that he appointed him Royal Swiss Watchmaker to the Spanish Crown.
Gevril became known for his impeccable craftsmanship and for creating timepieces of unmistakable quality and beauty. He passed his legacy onto his family, who to this day continue to make the finest timepieces in the world.
Gevril timepieces are displayed in museums across Europe–most notably the Museum Geneve and the Rolex Museum (where a Gevril pocket watch is displayed in the collection personally selected by the Wilsdorf family, the founder of Rolex).
Creating a Gevril timepiece is exhaustive, and Gevril expends years into the design and manufacture of its rare and enduring timepiece collections. It manufactures only limited edition collections, with 6,000 Gevril watches created each year and each line limited to 500 (stainless steel) or 100 (gold) pieces. The company also sources only the best materials and accoutrements.

AHHH, what’s that sound?
Jeff laughed as he watched his father sit in his computer chair playing video games. Jeff’s father, Samuel, was a bit of an anomaly in his age group. When video games started taking the world by storm, Samuel was there every step of the way, not caring that the target demographic was the generation below his. He bonded with his son over this eventually and Jeff had a special treat to bestow upon him.
Of course, as Samuel got older he lost touch with the evolution of video games and instead had to focus with children and work. Jeff, however, had all the time in the world to play away and Samuel practically lived vicariously through his son. All the latest games and technology were in the house, including the Logitech X-530 5.1 Surround Sound Speakers.
On a weekend, Jeff dragged his father away from household chores to show him what his new system could do. He threw in one of the classic games Samuel used to play and hit the power button. The sound boomed outward, causing Samuel to let out a loud shriek.
“OH MY GOD, IT’S SO AWESOME! SO AWESOME! WAIT…WAIT…I THINK IT’S TOO AWESOME! I DON’T KNOW IF I CAN HANDLE THIS! I THINK I’M DYING, SON…I’M DYING!”
No, just kidding, he was fine.

Na na na na, NA na na naaaaaa…SCIENCE COPS!
Tonight, SCIENCE COPS use TECHNOLOGY to SOLVE the CASE!
OPENING CREDITS: a flashy MONTAGE of CITY STREETS, flyovers of SKYSCRAPERS, and gratuitous scenes of SCANTILY CLAD WOMEN. A focus-grouped ‘70S ROCK ANTHEM blares. We see CLOSE-UPS of each star in descending order of fame with their names underneath. CUT TO BLACK and overlay PRODUCER CREDITS.
INTERIOR: SCIENCE COPS CRIME LAB. Pan across various SCIENCE EQUIPMENT and COMPUTERS, stopping on a JAW-DROPPINGLY BEAUTIFUL FORENSIC SCIENTIST. Rack focus until she goes all BLURRY in the background and we see a piece of EVIDENCE on a TABLE, because that will look pretty SWEET.
GRUFF BUT STILL CONVENTIONALLY HANDSOME DETECTIVE enters, followed by HEADSTRONG LADY COP and LOVEABLY AWKWARD LAB ASSISTANT.
GRUFF BUT STILL CONVENTIONALLY HANDSOME DETECTIVE
Any word on our victim?
JAW-DROPPINGLY BEAUTIFUL FORENSIC SCIENTIST
Male, late 30s, Latino, heavily tattooed indicating gang affiliation, and his name was Rogelio Juarez.
LOVEABLY AWKWARD LAB ASSISTANT looks at the EVIDENCE on the TABLE.
Woah, you got all that from this tiny patch of his shirt?
JAW-DROPPINGLY BEAUTIFUL FORENSIC SCIENTIST
No, I got it from his wallet. Found it in his pocket.
GRUFF BUT STILL CONVENTIONALLY HANDSOME DETECTIVE scowls as LOVEABLY AWKWARD LAB ASSISTANT looks confused.
HEADSTRONG LADY COP
Rogelio Juarez? As in-
GRUFF BUT STILL CONVENTIONALLY HANDSOME DETECTIVE
The Juarez Cartel. Get the Captain on the phone. Tell him to get ready for a blood bath.
LOVEABLY AWKWARD LAB ASSISTANT runs out the door, as if a person in his position on the social hierarchy could just ring up a police captain and say something like, “A detective told me to tell you there’s gonna be a blood bath because of a dead Latino man.”
JAW-DROPPINGLY BEAUTIFUL FORENSIC SCIENTIST
Well if you like that, you’re gonna love this.
GRUFF BUT STILL CONVENTIONALLY HANDSOME DETECTIVE
What is it?
JAW-DROPPINGLY BEAUTIFUL FORENSIC SCIENTIST uses her Razer TRON Gaming Mouse to click a couple of buttons and suddenly an IMPOSSIBLY COMPLEX CGI MOVIE displays on a HOLOGRAPHIC MONITOR that COULDN’T EXIST in the most scientifically advanced computer labs on the planet, let alone an under-funded city police department’s crime lab.
JAW-DROPPINGLY BEAUTIFUL FORENSIC SCIENTIST
I spectronomically analyzed the data set from the strip of clothing. By examining the polymer ions of the fabric we can-
GRUFF BUT STILL CONVENTIONALLY HANDSOME DETECTIVE
Wait. Go back.
The BULLS&%T CGI ANIMATION stops.
JAW-DROPPINGLY BEAUTIFUL FORENSIC SCIENTIST
What is it?
GRUFF BUT STILL CONVENTIONALLY HANDSOME DETECTIVE
There. Enhance that image.
JAW-DROPPINGLY BEAUTIFUL FORENSIC SCIENTIST, despite no indication of what or where the detective is looking, taps on a keyboard for a few seconds and the IMAGE zooms in.
EVERYONE in the room gasps and looks stunned at WHATEVER IT IS THEY’RE LOOKING AT.
HEADSTRONG LADY COP
This case just got a whole lot more complicated.
Rack focus to GRUFF BUT STILL CONVENTIONALLY HANDSOME DETECTIVE’S FACE.
GRUFF BUT STILL CONVENTIONALLY HANDSOME DETECTIVE
You ain’t kiddin’.

And we’re back! The United States of Songs continues barreling through the alphabet of states to find the perfect song to describe each. I know I go through it pretty much every time I write one of these, but people seem to forget that the rules specify the song title has to have the state name, and the song must be about the entire state. Which means songs like the great country march “Let ‘Er Go,” while great recommendations, just don’t apply to today’s state:
The state: North Dakota
The song: “North Dakota” by Chris Knight
Hoo boy, it’s tough to find a good tune about North Dakota. That’s not to say it’s a particularly BAD song; it’s not. But it’s really stretching my “song about the state” rule to the breaking point, I know. And honestly, I probably would’ve gone with the current state song, “North Dakota Hymn,” had I been able to find a version of it online that isn’t absolute crap.
It’s particularly tough to find a good song for North Dakota because the whole state’s a mystery to me. I’ve never been there, and all I know is the winters are cold and there’s currently a modern day gold rush going on in the oil fields; they can’t find enough bodies to fill the jobs up there. Apparently. Like I said, it’s never really been on my radar. So at least this tune covers the cold winter part.
The entire state has roughly a third the population the Seattle metro area does, so it sounds like the kind of place where you could carve out your own little kingdom on a piece of land and not have too many people bother you. I could get behind that, if it weren’t for the whole, y’know, desolation thing. The problem with the lonesome prairie is there aren’t a lot of opportunities for sarcastic internet copywriters. I think, though, that the general vibe of this song captures what I think the vibe would be in North Dakota.
North Dakota, I did the best I could. Hopefully a few of you guys can show up and suggest some other options I may have missed!
Runner-Up: ”North Dakota“ by Lyle Lovett
Most Laughable Suggestion: This monstrosity.
What do you think? Got a better pick for North Dakota? Want to make a suggestion for next week’s state, Ohio? Let us know in the comments!
