Does getting one's SAG card rank ahead of The Get the Hell out post? The wedding has to beat Tucker Carlson, but does the law degree? All very intriguing. That said, its a bit disappointing to find a decade-end list here at the time when the unwashed masses think the decade is ending, though the true-blue nerd knows the decade has 12 months yet to go...

I'm a sucker for sappy and thought this post was fine. But I will admit, the little asides in the start of your countdown plus the news that my younger sister might be engaged by the beginning of 2010 is - well, "sobering" is the wrong word but probably the most optimistic option.
