If you were hoping for a gourmet kitchen, sorry to disappoint you. You’ll look in vain for stainless-steel appliances or cabinetry from this millennium. That range is no Viking (although it might date from the time of the Vikings). And there’s not even a dishwasher — the horror, the horror!

But Keith Peterson actually doesn’t mind the lack of a dishwasher, as he told the Times:

“I’ve always preferred washing my own dishes; it’s therapeutic for me,” said Mr. Peterson, who enjoys writing his own lyrics to popular tunes. “I write my song lyrics while I am washing dishes. I think them through and sing them to myself.” Think: “Pretty sane am I, according to my therapist; And, after all, I think a doctor should know,” sung to the tune of the Beatles’ “Penny Lane.”

What kind of tune is he singing in the bedroom?
