I got the idea for this post after someone pointed out today that I tend to find a new band or singer and obsess over them -I literally consume everything they ever made, brood over every line they ever sang and (for the most part) become a devoted fan for life- for months before moving [...]

June 16, 20091984 was the greatest year ever
June 9, 2009A ton of articles are popping up on this very same topic, so I decided to put in my own two cents worth. However, just to be different, I’m just going to give you a list of everything that came out in 1984 and let those items be proof enough as to how awesome that [...]
