Looking Backward

Inspired by Jeff at Quid Nomen Illius (which is my fancy way of saying I've decided to copy him), I offer a brief retrospective of Rumpus 2006:

Here's what I think about when I can't get to sleep -- besides the "implications."

Sadeeq discusses John Cage's 639-year musical work.

Wonderdog liveblogs the Grammys.

Who draws the crowd and plays so loud? Baby, it's the "Damn it!" Man!

Everywhere around the world, they're comin' to America . . .

Wonderdog and I trade troubling memories of childhood.

Wonderdog offers apologies to Jesus and pens a memorable Top Ten.

Darryl Ann describes a horrifying celebrity encounter.

Stewdog asks an excellent question. Wonderdog asks another.

Madman takes a whiff of The Da Vinci Ca-Ca, so we don't have to.

Stewdog pays tribute to his father, who occasionally lives dangerously.

Stewdog plays the name game.

Madman comments on the Pope's speech and initiates an interesting comments thread.

I review a fabulous new book.

Wonderdog spares a spider.

Thanks for the retrospective. You folks have had a pretty prolific year--and I especially like W'dog's poem about the spider.

Happy new year to Rumpusers far and near!
