Some More Music Lists

'Tis the season for making lists. Last week I presented my favorite music from the last year. Here are a few lists from the professional music critics:

-The A.V. Club tallied up their votes and came up with the 30 best albums from the year.

-Here is a list of the top 40 albums from Spin.

-Paste ranked the year's 50 best albums.

One interesting note from these lists is that the #1 selection for the A.V. Club and Spin, is the #50 selection for Paste. I don't care much about the rankings from these sort of lists, but the nice thing is that they usually provide readers with some new music to check out.

Sarah Palin: Redefining "Idiot" Every Day

Have you seen the video of Sarah Palin giving a news conference with turkeys being slaughtered as the chosen backdrop?

I found this on The Onion's A.V. Club website:

Mr. T And Snickers

I kept forgetting to post a link to this story. From the A.V. Club, comes a story about how a new ad campaign from Snickers, featuring Mr. T, has come under fire. The story includes the commercials, which have been posted on YouTube. Check them out...they're pretty funny.
