Why is it so Honorable to mention things?

Some things make it to the top, and some stop right before they get there. Now, while some people seem to think that it is honorable to mention those that just missed the cut, I'm pretty sure that I remember reading in high school that "second place is just the first to lose." So instead we'd like to give you a list of things that although pretty good, we would still put a bumper sticker of Calvin pissing on them on our F-350 super-duty dually harley-davidson edition lowered badass trucks (yes, they are rolling on DUBS).

Or maybe we'll just list some stuff and then write some stuff about that stuff so you can read it and be amused or not amused while you try not to think about whether or not you are getting carpal tunnel in your mouse arm.

*My favorite video....None Shall Pass by Aesop Rock. C'mon, dude wears a cartoon pig hat.



*Record I hate but that plays all the time because it's listed first in Amarok.....Myth Takes by !!!

*Guiltiest Pleasure: Lil Wayne

*Most overused band photo: Put 'em in animal masks...Seriously that shit was a conspiracy.

*Most overused Band Flash Website Idea: Bugs. Dragonflies and buzzy bees on every freakin site.

*Some records that almost made it to the top 10.

Emerald City by John Vanderslice...Damn fine record. Damn fine live show. Nicest musician of all time.

Neon Bible by Arcade Fire....Amish or not I like this record. I got tired of reading about it every second of every day but, i did like it.
Popular Demand by Black Milk (myspace). Some great hip hop.

The Wishes and the Glitch by Say Hi. Came out of left field. Songs from the heart.


Oh and Happy New Year.

My New Year's resolution: Somehow do even less. Less is the new not as much.
