Ridiculing him for ridiculing Sander's shoeshine seems a perfectly reasonable alternative. That sounds a little stalkeriffic if you ask me.

Fox 5's studios are on 67th between 2nd and 3rd. So Deutzman lives two blocks from the subway and works two blocks from the subway. Who wants to stake out his house to make sure he's traveling on the trains from one point to the other? According to Zabasearch, John Deutzman lives on 16th St. between 6th and 7th.
