The Trainspotters' Guide to Buffy and Angel: #48: Prof. Walsh
http://buffyandangeltrainspotters.blogspot.com/2010/05/48-prof-walsh.html
Wednesday, May 26, 2010. 48: Prof. Walsh. Professor Walsh is entirely a season four phenomenon, débuting in the Joss Whedon-penned season opener, “ The Freshman. 8221; and going on to appear in eight of the first thirteen episodes, often as the stock university professor (she is the only one of any real consequence we ever meet). Her swan song, season 13, “ The I in Team. 8221; Inasmuch as it even counts, her five-word appearance here is her briefest appearance. Total words spoken on Buffy. Collects rand...

The Trainspotters' Guide to Buffy and Angel: #39: Snyder
http://buffyandangeltrainspotters.blogspot.com/2010/06/39-snyder.html
Tuesday, June 8, 2010. Principal Snyder is a pretty good example of tenacity: he makes it onto this list, at 39th no less, without ever really being a character of any consequence. There are no 'Snyder episodes', and most of the time he's just a minor annoyance: a mosquito buzzing around the ears of the main characters. Snyder makes the top five precisely twice: finishing fifth in “ School Hard. 8221; and finishing fourth in “ Band Candy. 8221;, is the last episode of season three, and the last episode f...

The Trainspotters' Guide to Buffy and Angel: The Top Fifty Buffyverse Characters
http://buffyandangeltrainspotters.blogspot.com/2010/05/top-fifty-buffyverse-characters_21.html
Friday, May 21, 2010. The Top Fifty Buffyverse Characters. A significant portion of this blog is going to be dedicated to statistical analysis of the dialogue of the two TV shows Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Still, it's a list with merit, and each of the fifty will get an entry - counting down, one per weekday, from 50 to 1 - listing various stats related to that person. And a picture of each! As the list grows, I'll provide links to each page from here. 48 Professor Maggie Walsh. 32 Principal Robin Wood.

Sunday, June 6, 2010. Horoscopes Monkey Trial: Your week 7 - 13 June 2010. 7 - 13 JUNE 2010. You will find it difficult to sleep without the aid of a lullaby. Hold your breath until you turn blue this week. Then join the Blue Man Group. The Taurus with a thirst for knowledge can expect humidity and a high of 25 degrees on Wednesday.

The worst songs in the world... ever!: "We are the World 25 for Haiti" by Artists for Haiti (2010)
http://worstsongsintheworldever.blogspot.com/2010/02/we-are-world-25-for-haiti-by-artists.html
The worst songs in the world. ever! Saturday, February 27, 2010. We are the World 25 for Haiti" by Artists for Haiti (2010). Well, I've already talked about the aesthetic tragedy that is the 'charity single'. Just to underline the message I feel compelled to repeat again and again, charity singles are for very good causes and are definitely worthwhile things to do. But this record sucks. Big. How does it compare to the original? The whole mess gets going with Justin Bieber. Where you can donate a truly w...

Understanding Google Trends: Google Insights: top-selling artists of 2003
http://understandinggoogletrends.blogspot.com/2009/11/google-insights-top-selling-artists-of.html
Thursday, November 12, 2009. Google Insights: top-selling artists of 2003. I did this search to check on longevity in the music business. Google Insights goes back to January 2004, a time at which these artists would have been, presumably, been popular searches, as they are the artists responsible for the best-selling CDs of 2003 (one reason I chose 2003 instead of 2004 is that it's a more interesting list). To see the stats themselves, the top five selling CDs in the USA in 2003 are:. A bit of random st...

Bungle Jerry: Joe Pesci, Billy Joel and N!xau
http://bunglejerry.blogspot.com/2010/06/joe-pesci-billy-joel-and-nxau.html
Sunday, June 13, 2010. Joe Pesci, Billy Joel and N! Meh A very 'meh' week indeed. Nothing to knock the socks off of those with really big socks on. Just. some stuff. You know, stuff. Strange, because I felt like I did a lot this week. The only time I accessed my 'proper blog' was to complain about Yahoo! A trip to Namibia for the awesome name of " N! Theo Huxtable, who I'm getting bored of, becomes a Pokémon. This week's horoscopes discuss Joe Pesci. For the second week. A Whiter Shade of Pale. The 1970s...

Poll Vaulting: Canada: Un-Cult of Un-Personality
http://pollvaulting.blogspot.com/2010/05/canada-un-cult-of-un-personality.html
Wednesday, May 19, 2010. Canada: Un-Cult of Un-Personality. Image by John Hansen. Measurable, and I think you could make some good arguments that it's not, support for Michael Ignatieff is abysmal. The man is just not very popular - not even within his own party. I have an EKOS poll. That's a few weeks old that tells much the same story - but check out the partisan numbers:. Nationwide: 43% approve, 26% disapprove, 31% DK/NR. NDP: 69% approve, 11% disapprove, 20% DK/NR. The third question is something on...

Last Thoughts on Michael Jackson: Michael Jackson and Six Degrees of Separation
http://lastthoughtsonmichaeljackson.blogspot.com/2010/03/michael-jackson-and-six-degrees-of.html
Last Thoughts on Michael Jackson. Saturday, March 13, 2010. Michael Jackson and Six Degrees of Separation. Anyway, that leads to the Oracle of Bacon, where any movie actor is shown to connect to Kevin Bacon in a similar way - not mutual acquaintances but co-stars. Two people who have appeared in the same movie connect just as, in the original theory, two acquaintances connect. It doesn't have to be. One of Michael Jackson's closest friends, co-starred with him in "The Wiz". Is, of course, Michael's siste...

The worst songs in the world... ever!: "Barbara Ann" by the Beach Boys (1965)
http://worstsongsintheworldever.blogspot.com/2009/08/barbara-ann-by-beach-boys-1965.html
The worst songs in the world. ever! Thursday, August 20, 2009. Barbara Ann" by the Beach Boys (1965). Ah yes, “Pet Sounds”. It truly is. As wonderful as everyone says it is. “Caroline, No” melts your heart into a tiny puddle. “Wouldn’t It Be Nice” confirms to you that music can. Bring eternal youth. Even “Sloop John B”, strangely maligned, is in my opinion great. After it. But it wasn’t an embarrassment either. When it stiffed, the record company put out this. The pile of rubbish and drove the single to ...
