Self-Proclaimed Champion
Happy Anniversary everybody! Oh, you may be wondering exactly what sort of anniversary you might be celebrating... well January 2007 marks the completion of my first year of the adventure I like to call blogging, and in order to celebrate I decided to post my favourite entry from the past year. Also be sure to peep the limited edition, digitally remastered content in the re-release (marked by a *).
That said, I can think of nothing better than to issue a public challenge to my blogmates to get the competitive juices flowing. So, Mike, Jon, and Cas, I dare you to post your favourite personal entry from the past year if you even think it has a remote chance to stand up to mine, let alone be included on the same webpage. We all know which of the horsepeople is pacing this here blogging apocolypse; I'll give you a hint...

So readers feel free to comment on your favourite once everyone has posted, or just comment in general on whatever you feel. It doesn't even have to be relevant, or understandable, or even in English.
Um, Yeah! Here goes...
Pretty Sweet Band Names
The other day I was bumming around and listening to Jimmy Eat World when I was hit by a ridiculous band-name related epiphany. I'll let you in on my thought process:
Thought 1 -Jimmy Eat World is a pretty sweet name for a band
Thought 2 - Jimmy Eat World is a sentence that is totally ridiculous grammatically
Thought 3 - Jimmy Eat World is a sentence that is totally ridiculous grammatically because it's just a name, then a verb, and some random noun
Thesis - Jimmy Eat World must not be the only pretty sweet name for a band that is just a name, then a verb, and some random noun
So then I started coming up with pretty sweet band names of my own, here are a few:
Martha Urinate Firetruck
Eugene Lick Isotope
Gertrude Backflip Vaseline
Aladdin Jumpkick Envelope
Napoleon Ransack Pineapple
Beowulf Interview Electron
Geoffrey Fight Aristocrat
Matt Is Awesomest-Thing
Erica Breakdance Underwear*
Logan Uppercut Detergent*
Macy Somersault Sunglasses*
Edna Snuggle Elastic*
Sigfreid Digest Urchin*
It's actually a mildly amusing exercise, so try coming up with a few on your own!

PS - If you or anyone you know is actually in a band and want to use these pretty sweet band names go right ahead, I won't be needing them for awhile anyway.

i would have to say... Erica Breakdance Underwear is my favourite. you'd THINK its because of the underwear reference (since i like any opportunity to say "underpants") but its actually the verb "breakdance" that made it stand out the most to me.
thanks for being so entertaining! hope 24 was good ;)
Dear Lesley Breakdance Underpants,
Oh yeah, it was Hella Good...
