Jens Lekman is also rad, even if impossible to pronounce correctly unless you yourself are Jens Lekman.

(re Rent: All concerns about the music and its intermittent insipidness aside, I keep wanting to go to Park Lane with a silver permanent marker and cross out the slogan that’s there currently on the Rent movie posters and replace it with “When life gives you AIDS, make lemonAIDS!”, which strikes me as far more appropriate. It is more optimistic, you understand.)

Still mostly lurking,

Yeaaaah.

Luke: What you are doing with your Top 100 list is similar to a hypothetical scenario wherein Peter Jackson got mad because he did not win any accolades for the first two Lord of the Rings films and then decided not to release the third one until someone fucking ASKED for it explicitly. People had been enjoying the saga all along; they were just waiting until the END to reward him! I will reward you greatly if you finish it soon! I will comment and everything! And recommend you to friends and loved ones.

Andrea: I have a thing for capital letters. I used to use them FREQUENTLY a few years back, but reigned the habit in after everyone told me it was excessive. But now, as we move into the year of our lord 2006, I feel it may be time for a RETURN.

Everyone: I have decided to award ANOTHER Honourable Mention to Chris Parnell and Andy Samburg’s “Lazy Sunday”, which you can download by clicking here.

We’re about to get taken to a DREAM WORLD OF MAGIC!

I look forward to your list of movies. And just to save you some time: Kronk’s New Groove was not as good as one might think.

I totally thought you were inventing the 8 Mile quote. What a blast from the past — not the fact that I liked 8 Mile. I still think it’s great. But the fact that I said things like “Uh, 8 Mile? Hello?” I’ve clearly become much cooler over the last couple of years, and now just say things like “blast from the past.”

Also, I think I’m just going to not post the final 20 songs on my list to Sports Den until eventually somebody points out that I suddenly just stopped posting them, with no explanation whatsoever. Although even then, I may not have time to do them yet, what with the HUNDREDS (give or take) of Christmas mailings I have to prepare… it was such a good idea in theory. Anyway, I expected an outcry over the fact that the list wasn’t done by Friday, and am somewhat offended that I haven’t received one yet.

And for the record, “For Real” will be on my list too. Whenever I finish it.
