Ramblings…

It’s the time of year where everyone comes out with a “Top Ten/Best XXX of 2006″ list for everything. Originally, I was only going to talk about Rolling Stone Magazine’s best songs and album of the year list, but why limit myself to two when there are so many? Here’s a rundown of some of the ones I found most interesting. (As a society, why do we have the need to clasiffy things like this? And why do we like reading about them so much)?
