A List Of Lists

I’ve always had a problem with lists. Not unordered lists, mind you, but ranked lists. I have a friend who used to have a regular “list Thursday” feature on his blog, though I won’t mention specifically who since he doesn’t really do that anymore. I always wanted to participate, but I just always had trouble ranking things.


I don’t know what it is, but I’ve just always had that problem. I can compare two things, at least sometimes, but actual rankings give me problems. As such, I tend to just make meaningless lists anytime I actually make an ordered list:


In fact here’s one now:


1. grocery list


2. Listeria


3. guest list


4. National Book Award short list


5. sequence listing


6. list datatype


7. mailing list


8. HTML list tag


9. wish list


10. bucket list

Arthur Graham Of course, if they're fresh, that just means I'll have to salt pack them myself...

Might want to do that before drinking the beer.
