  1. Mixcloud iPhone app–about time!

  4. US soccer fans (that’s right–we call it soccer, bitches.  Deal with it.)
  5. George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire series–am on book four now, and book 5 comes out in July.  Good times.

Top 10/Bottom 3: June 2010

The Roadhouse--Longplayer

Top 10

  1. iPad (software still iffy but device is amazing.  Watching Netflix in my office between classes is awesome)
  2. M.I.A. (new album should be interesting)
  3. Sly and the Family Stone’s Fresh (have been listening to this a lot–forgot how awesome it is)
  4. Wind (hey, in the desert, when the wind goes away, the heat arrives–and stays)
  5. Vernor Vinge’s A Deepness in the Sky (even better 2nd time around)
  6. Emeralds, Does It Look Like I’m Here?
  7. Mutek 2010 (damn–I’ve been wanting to go to this for 10 years, and I haven’t made it yet.  Perhaps next year…)
  8. BBC America (has replaced Comedy Central as my default channel)
  9. Steak (mmmmm)
  10. John Scalzi’s Whatever

Bottom 3

  1. Lost finale (massive cop-out to turn the flash-sideways into purgatory.  I never thought I’d say this, but Star Trek: The Next Generation kicked this show’s ass as far as complex, intelligent finales)
  2. Angels (Kowbell’s broken leg encapsulation of the season)
  3. Oil
