Musing

December's Balls of the Month Award or And I Thought Greyhound Stations in NYC Were Bad... This kid is pretty unbelievable. I'm not saying I agree with his statement that terrorists are "pure evil" or other such moral ideals, but to run away to Iraq at 16 to get a good story, that kid's gotta have the biggest rocks in Florida. Way to go, kid. Now the question is - where do I have to go to beat that?

The 2005 Ho Music Awards Contestants or Yes, This Is Rather Late Here are the current nominees for each award for this year's HMAs. Usually I like to get these published by the beginning of November, but the past month was very busy and it had to be put off. Song of the Year One of These Days ~ Doves Pass Me Down the Wine ~ Oasis Hollow ~ Better Than Ezra Fix You ~ Coldplay Now Comes the Night ~ Rob Thomas Album of the Year Some Cities ~ Doves Rebel, Sweetheart ~ The Wallflowers Don't Believe the Truth ~ Oasis X&Y ~ Coldplay Retro Songs of the Year [As usual, these songs are simply listed instead of debated over, since I can choose as many as I want. Therefore, those songs stay unlisted until the day of the awards.] Discovery Artist of the Year Elbow Glen Phillips Toad the Wet Sprocket Input is always welcome, although in the end I hold total veto power.
