So I'd been telling myself to stop launching new blogs... but I've gotten into these 'top ten' list things so much, and I've found that there is just so much to say that can fit into a 'top ten' format, that I was worried my "A Proper Blog" blog would just be swamped by top-ten lists ad infinitum. So I decided, even though it will decimate my "A Proper Blog" readership, to spin the top ten lists off into a new blog, called "A Lust for Lists". You can find it at http://a-lust-for-lists.blogspot.com/ where hopefully it'll offer listiness on a relatively regular basis.
Enjoy!

Bungle Music: the Index
So I've been keeping a good number of different blogs. Not all of them talk about music, but many of them do.

Buffy Overload
Yeah, I've been lax. Too busy trying to find a job and stuff like that. Just thought I'd log in to let you know that... that I've been lax. Which you might have figured out. Turns out the Buffy project has been so overwhelming I've barely had time ot do anything else blog-like. Oh well, c'est la vie.
Of course, the nice column to the left here contains lotsa links to what's new, hot and sexy. Well, probably not sexy.

Joe Pesci, Billy Joel and N!xau
Meh. A very 'meh' week indeed. Nothing to knock the socks off of those with really big socks on. Just... some stuff. You know, stuff. Strange, because I felt like I did a lot this week.
- The only time I accessed my 'proper blog' was to complain about Yahoo! News.
- A trip to Namibia for the awesome name of "N!xau".
- Theo Huxtable, who I'm getting bored of, becomes a Pokémon.
- This week's horoscopes discuss Joe Pesci.
- I've used sights around Toronto to put together a graphic alphabet.
- It's rather obvious that it'd be a two-parter. This week, we look at Google Insights' info concerning Siamese Twins, for the second week.
- On the Buffyverse front, we look at Illyria, Principal Snyder, Drusilla, Jenny Calendar, and Holland Manners.
- And the songs... worst song of the week, "We Didn't Start the Fire".
- Best one? "A Whiter Shade of Pale".

Suzanne Vega, John Malkovich and Siamese Twins
It doesn't feel like I did that much this week. Getting a bit lazy in my old age? Could be...
- The Buffy epic carries on with five more entries: Anne, Sahjhan, Amy, Gwen and Kennedy.
- Pictures of Theo takes on the Spike Jonze movie "Being John Malkovich".
- This week's horoscope addresses the problem of people misspelling 'barbecue'.
- We look at the Google Insights track record for 'Siamese Twin' couplets like 'spic and span'.
- A Proper Blog has a little short story that may or may not have to do with 80s music.
- Speaking of 80s music, this week's Best Song and Worst Song are both by Suzanne Vega: "Tom's Diner" and "Luka". But which is which?
- Oh! And "Lost in Google Translation"..., er... maybe I shouldn't give any clues.
- Up there in Canada, Poll Vaulting looks at the province of B.C.
- And we learn about the Canadian-only Awesome Name that is "O-Pee-Chee".

Looney Tunes, Hannah Montana and Crazy Buttocks
Another week, another bunch of blogs. What have I been doing this week? In addition to eating and sleeping, this:
- I got the Buffy and Angel blog up and going this week, with five entries on five characters: The Groosalugg, Ben, Professor Walsh, Skip, and Caleb.
- I actually added something to my woefully infrequent 'poetry blog' Decapitation Classic. It's called "A City is Destroyed".
- A bit of jingoism from Pictures of Theo, as Theo Huxtable gets mashed up with Uncle Sam.
- Except that's a different country. Up here, I have a blog devoted to Montréal through Google Street View. This week, I did some pictures of the Metro's Orange Line.
- But speaking of that other country, Brits Supertramp sing this week's Worst Song nominee, "Breakfast in America".
- And the Best Song nominee is an American act, singing about a different place altogether: "Funkytown".
- On the topic of music, my once-a-month blog Better as a Single sinks its teeth into, of all things, a Hannah Montana album.
- And, just to show I'm no more mature than Miley Cyrus herself, A Proper Blog this week ogles album covers with nudity in them.
- More anatomy: Living with Crazy Buttocks. Don't worry; it's just a book with an Awesome Name.
- Lost in Google Translation this week takes inspiration from VH1.
- And lastly, some Google Insights about Looney Tunes characters.
- This week's horoscope offers all kinds of sage advice, courtesy of Horoscopes Monkey Trial.

Canada and other Countries
So my second attempt at a weekly run-down. There's 12 entries here for this week, which surprises me, because I didn't think I did all that much this week. In any case, there's no overriding theme, except that three of them are about Canada. So what have I been up to this week? This:
- I have a blog that shows Toronto through Google Street View screencaps. This one is a but different, in that I've taken a few of those pictures and turned them into Tilt-Shift pictures, i.e. made them look like miniatures.
- My blog about Google Insights uses data from that site to consider whether Canadians use American or British spellings more.
- And in Poll Vaulting, I consider the woes of the Canadian Leader of the Opposition, Michael Ignatieff.
- Both my best-song and worst-song blog entries are American, though. Nominee for Best Song Ever this week is Beyoncé's "Crazy in Love"
- Nominee for worst is Michael Bolton's "Why Give My Songs Titles; They All Sound the Same Anyway".
- My poor unloved Lost in Google Translation site has a mixed-bag entry.
- I'm launching a blog that is a bit of an obsessive's guide to the TV shows Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel. I got the introduction up to the Top 50 Characters list that I'll be doing at the rate of one per weekday.
- Pictures of Theo has a Monty Python-inspired GIF. God loves GIFs.
- The Awesome Name of the week is "Bapsybanoo". Tell me you wouldn't name your daughter that.
- My Horoscopes blog has another edition this week: more horoscopes guaranteed to be true beyond any shadow of a doubt.
- And A Proper Blog has two entries this week. First is a silly thing about nursery rhymes.
- The second Proper Blog entry is about bisexuality, and the 'spectrum' of sexuality.
