First Post... Counting down like the 12 Days of Christmas!

Merry Christmas, everyone who happened to stumble upon this blog!

Last year, I made a set of private "Best of 2014" lists, an idea that I've had since mid-2013 at the earliest. What started out as a list of my favorite songs on the radio that I heard that year grew into something like 10 or 15 countdowns in pop culture categories like music, movies, and sports. 

This year I thought I'd take it one step further and share my Best of 2015 lists with the world. I'll do my best to get them all in before January 1 rolls around, although with only a few days left in the year, it seems unlikely. But I'll try!

I'll have my first few up in the coming days, and let me begin by saying that if I've omitted one of your favorites, I can only apologize and say "eh... maybe next year!"

As for the rest of the blog, let the countdowns begin, and here's to a happy and peaceful 2016!
