What didn’t suck on this site in 2004? Huh, what didn’t didn’t suck?

Sorry, that doesn’t make sense.

Regardless, here’s the top stuff from 2004:

Huh. So, just a quick update on that list of The Best Movies of 2009 Featuring A Giant Blue Man Being Totally Kickass And Awesome While Dealing With The Threat Of Total Planetary Devastation. Um, yeah. Watchmen is now number two (2).

The Testimony

“Your honour, I concede that I did, indeed, attempt to ‘make out’ with the woman in question well after she’d lost consciousness.  But she wanted me to do it. I know she did. Don’t you know who I am?”

Smallville File, Season One, Episode Twelve: [...]

What Have We Got Ear?

Tip for editors of biographies about Post-Impressionist painters: Vincent Van Gogh: End of an Era? That’s a title extremely prone to typos.

Sturgeon Be Damned 2001

An ongoing look at the 5-10% of stuff on this web site that, in more or less accordance with Sturgeon’s Law, isn’t crap.
