Bye 2007 The end of year is upon us and once again we are look to the past and review what went well and what didn't and all that.
Or, in this case here is my year in review of other people's year in reviews.
Ten of them.
In no particular order.
10. The NYT Automobile Section My grandfather (on my mother's side) was a mechanic and when he died my grandmother (also on my mother's side (oddly)) presented me with a box of his old magazines.
Road & Track. Car & Driver.
I was in the 5th grade and had never really paid attention to these magazines, but quickly became a fan of all things auto and have been since. When the weekend NYT arrives (or doesn't due to our crappy paper delivery person) I usually read the auto section first.
There. I said it.
8. Roger Ebert: The year's ten best films and other shenanigans
OK, I haven't seen Juno and don't really plan to, but is that really the best film for 2007?
Also, has anyone else noticed that the Chicago Sun Times website is really badly done? Why there are broken links to Ebert's other articles on the front page, I don't know.
For instance, this page here.... none of the links seem to work. Right now.
