L.M.'s Top Ten art stuff of 2005 (from my shadow Office of the Governor General in my shadow government, in a tiny perfect universe)
The list and images are in the comments.
Election time: VB is starting to get a bee in his bonnet reading about all this Sam Bulte STuff on the BoingBoing and AccordianGuy blogs.
remember: "Home taping is killing the music Industry... and its about time".

Some alert participants have noticed that I did not put out a call for Top Ten this year. That's cause I'm a no-good lazy-arse with a head cold. But if anyone is motivated like Tino, please send 'em in and I'll post 'em for sure!

Oooooooooo, Harper baby. Say my name! Say my name!
Débat des chefs!
Dernier affrontement de la campagne!
Les chefs des quatre grands partis fédéraux croiseront le fer en français, ce soir, pour la dernière fois avant le scrutin du 23 janvier.
