10 Children's Books

Randi and I are so addicted to the Series of Unfortunate Events. I'm on book 12 now. I think these books are so funny and clever and dark, that they just can't be for kids. I've been reading a lot of so-called kids books lately. Here are some of my faves from now, and as a kid, in no particular order.

1. Harry Potter
2. The Chronicles of Narnia
3. Alice in Wonderland
4. The Adventures of Winnie the Pooh
5. Are You There God It's Me Margaret
6. Series of Unfortunate Events
7. The Story About Ping
8. Where the Wild Things Are
9. There's a Monster at The End of this Book
10. Marvin K Mooney Will You Please Go Home

* This list could be be 500 instead of 10!

10 albums you'd take to a desert island

I was driving to work today and the station formerly known as KRock had a thing were listeners could send in their top 5 picks of albums they'd take on a desert island. Then the station would play music blocks based on those picks. So I started thinking which 5 I'd take, and well, I always over pack so I thought of 10.

1. The Beatles - Abby Road
2. The Beatles - Revolver
3. U2's Joshua Tree
4. U2's All that you can't leave behind
5. Indigo Girl's Rites of Passage
6. Rolling Stone's 40 Licks
7. Bruce Springsteen's Born to Run
8. Pearl Jam's Vs
9. Frank Sinatra's Songs for Swinging Lovers
10. Madonna's Immaculate Collection

What would you take????

10 things

This is going to be my new blog dedicated to list of 10. I love top 10 lists and generally have way too much time on my hands. So feel free to join in and add your top 10s in the comments.
