The Listmania! music list is the management's annual attempt to say a little something about the year's finest albums, singles, etc. Many of you will recall having received/participated in the old, lower-tech e-mail version. This year, what with the "blog" and all, you will be able to visit again and again, see cover art, etc. Also, in addition to the ability to comment without the dreaded "reply to all" stigma, you will still be able to submit your own list (The management will be happy to post many of them) and you can even send a link to your site if you have a similar posting. Glee! This is the kind of idyllic community that we can create using the internets!
This all comes up because, in addition to 2004 being nearly over, the first of the geeked-out 2004 music lists has already arrived. The folks over at The Onion AV Club kicked the list season off late yesterday. *bitter defeat* should follow suit as early as next week.
Thanks to Chezzabella for sending this article on an etymological approach to the word "dude." For those of us who [ab]use the term often, it's a fascinating read.
The management will attend a special premiere screening of The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou this evening at MoMA. Can it possibly stand up to expectations? Probably not, but it still looks great. An assessment will follow shortly.
