Seven Blog Post Topics That Never Got Past The “Draft” Stage In Movable Type (April 2008 Edition)

April 30th, 2008 // 7 Comments

dillinger2-300_lo.jpgOur month-ending Rule Of Sevens column series continues with a series of post ideas that didn’t quite make it to the “publish” stage: 1. AC radio and how it’s become the province of young adults/teenagers (inspired by James Montgomery’s column on Robyn); 2. The Five Greatest Music Videos To Feature Adorable Puppies; 3. In which I fill out the American Idol marketing survey and reveal my complete lack of demographic appropriateness for the show; 4. John Legend: Is his popularity real, or a fever dream created by his ad omnipresence?; 5. Today’s Reason That The Brooklyn Vegan Comment Section Made Me Ashamed To Live In New York (ongoing series); 6. Possible Couplets For The 20th-Anniversary Edition Of “We Didn’t Start The Fire” (NB I’ll probably flesh this out sometime in the next few months); 7. Liveblogging The At-Bat Music Of This Mets Game I’m Watching. [Pic via MetalSucks]

    It could alternate with the Stereogum comments section for maximum despair inducement.

    @bcapirigi: That Vitalic video with the super slo-mo. I promise you will love it. I’m at work and they block YouTube so I can’t find it for you, but just search “Vitalic puppies lasers”. Which you oughta be doing all the time anyway.
