Only the Best

With 2008 coming to a close, everybody and their mother has got a "Best of 2008" list.
Here are just a few if you dig this sort of roundup or have been in a coma:

Last.fm
Filter Magazine

and the lists go on and on and on...

While Im on the subject of favorites in 08' I want to mention my favorite album cover.  Sam Sparro's "Black and Gold" album cover seems very 70's/80's, and I like it.


The cover is the work of London illustrator Steven Wilson.
Wilson's client list includes big name companies like Nike and Coke, but he says his favorite projects are album covers. 
Check it out.







And just in case you have been in a coma in 08' here 10 things you may have missed:
1) The U.S. elected the first black President, his name Barack Obama!
2) the global economy is in the crapper and you have most likely lost your job, home and savings.
2) Canada is in a "political crisis"
3) business is bad, and everyone's asking for a "bailout"
4) Brad and Angelina multiplied their spawn...again
5) Madonna gave Guy Ritchie the boot
6) Britney's back...again
7) Mad Men is the best thing on TV
8) Facebook changed it's layout, please join the rest of us in trying to figure out how to navigate your way through it.
9) Sad News, Oscar nominated actor Heath Ledger died.
10) The vampire movie/book Twilight is a really big deal, but I don't really get it.
