Even though I'm no fan, no Steve Dahl? Terri Hemmert? Ron Magers? Marc Smith? Hell, a Kevin Coval? Oh, well, that's what lists are for I guess. Not so much to talk about who's on it, but who's NOT on it.

Ware and Ryan are artists - and talented - but for real? Thats a long list without a painter, or sculptor, or visual artist who doesn't work in print. dumbass editors. eek is right.

Roger Ebert is my Chicago hero. Relentlessly creative, funny and ascerbic without being crass. His illness has only made him more of a force. I think he looks like darth vader with the turtlenecks and that is AWESOME.
