Top 5 Reasons Toni Daytona is Rotten:

1. She knows Brad has a thing for her, yet she keeps leading the poor guy on. Come on already, quit messing with the lads head.
2. She used Brads infatuation with her to make Dirk jealous. Not only did Dirk get screwed around, but Brad also got punched in the jaw.
3. She used Dirks unhealthy love of her to help her station win the toy drive. The guy was trying to turn his life around, but little miss head games strikes again.
4. She has no moral conscience. She keeps screwing with mens heads and showing no remorse. In fact, it sems like she kind of enjoys it.
5. She does stupid things like kiss Brad on the cheek, then proclaims that they have a great friendship. Damn it, don't do that to a man. You can't get a man started down the road of infatuation on purpose and then play the friend card. That just aint right.

Top 5 Dave Matthews Band Songs (An avoiding work list)

1. Busted Stuff - such a smooth groove. I love it.
2. Warehouse - arguably the best Dave song of all time. So intense, and yet, so happy.
3. Lie in our Graves - The definition of a jam band song. Listen to the "Live in Chicago" version. It's like 10 minutes long, and Victor Wooten and Tim Reynolds have these crazy long solos.
4. Bartender - I find its pseudo-spirituality inspiring. And it's so pretty.

Top5 StopFive Unsolved Mysteries

5. Why does everyone keep calling their friends creepy? Sometimes it's fun to act creepy, but only because we are so obviously the farthest thing from it. I don't think any of you are creepy. Do you agree? I need answers.
4. MattyRob. Who in the frackin' verse is MattyRob? Someone please tell me. Please.
3. Are Jenn's top car names intrinsically valuable or do they symbolize the uniqueness of the cultural icons they represent? I'll try to guess: Stella DuBois Kowalski, Marvin the Martian, Spock son of Sarek, Bea Arthur (golden), and Mike Waszowski? But maybe they're just good names. What do I know? (rhetorical)
2. Is tuna/ketchup KD better than bacon/butter KD? I've heard a lot of talk, but seen no actual effort go into convincing the general readership one way or the other. However I'm willing to host and judge a StopFive cook-off to settle the matter once and for all. If Dan and Jenn are really convinced of their recipes' superiority or just want to further the cause of science, they can let me know. Also I'm hungry.

Top 5 Movies I watch when I'm Sick

1. Almost Famous. This movie is pretty much my favourite movie of all time. And Kate Hudson is comforting. And beautiful.
2. Star Wars 4-6. These movies require little thought, and are chalk full of adventure, fun, wookies, and the occasional golden bikini. Plus, when you're sick, you can identify with whiny characters like Luke Skywalker.
3. Garden State. Comforting, and it has a great soundtrack. Coming of age films are good when you're sick.
4. Braveheart. It's long and inspiring. And some book told me it would make me feel like more of a man.
5. The Royal Tennenbaums. Also a great soundtrack, and funny. But funny in that quirky grin kind of way, rather than that laugh out loud and start a coughing fit kind of way.

Notable Exceptions: The Saint and Family Man.

Top5 Strange Things I do

5. Turn my room into a furnace with this little space heater. I like warming up and being cozy, but like the frog in the pot, continually fail to notice when it crosses the threshhold to sweltering.
4. Wash my face all the time. It always feels dirty and oily, even after I wash it. Perhaps one day I will be able to carry spare faces with me at all times and just switch faces when one feels dirty. The faces I'm not wearing will be in disinfectant.
3. Not eat meals. My roommate shares this strange non-habit. I do eat nutritional foodstuffs, sometimes as often as once a day, but whatever else I consume is purely recreational. I don't get people who eat regular meals. They frighten me.
2. Sleep on a pillow full of dried barley husks. It centers me.
1. Hunch my right shoulder more than my left one. They both hunch, but my right shoulder is reprobate, and it hates me. Call me 'hunchy'.

I could go on and on, but I think I've made my point: I do strange things.

2. kiss
3. Play Fantasy Football. This is a massive obsession with me. I cant really explain why I love it so much, but I do. It is my hobby.
4. Hope. I am constanly in this delemna of seeing more than is given, of wanting more than I have. Its like this constant reminder that life is always changing for me. Kinda puts alot of pressure on any relationships I have. But yeah, I do it
5. Advice homeless youth. It really is this weird thing that I do. Completely demanding of humility, while having some sort of confidence in my thoughts and words that they could make a differnce.

and the game continues. All stop fivers must do a list, by the way.

Top 5 Surprising Elisha Cuthbert Appearances

1. 24 - I remember when I first started watching 24. I was at my friend Brad's and right away I recognized one of my childhood crushes from the Tv show popular mechanics for kids. I gotta say the crush hadn't really died, it was just dorment till then.
2. Perfect Situation Video - I actually didn't know that part of Weezer's history, but I am glad I watched Much Music today.
3. Love Actually - This is one of my favorite movies. It is a guilty pleasure of mine (beautiful and romantic movies). but yeah, she was super hot in it.
4. Old School - .... sorry...
5. Are You Afraid of the Dark - She actually made her first appearance in the early stages of the show, in 1996. but it was when she started attending the late night fires that I took notice.

anyway...

Top 5 Signs Oprah Could Be the Anti-Christ

1. Oprah was originally named ‘Orpah’, after the Moabite woman in the Book of Ruth. Biblical roots – in a pinch (such as "The End of the World") it will secure allegiance of at least 77% of evangelical Christians (as recent theological studies have shown that really, less than 23% of Christians are 'elect').

2. She was born on January 29, 1954. Just another year? Not so. In 1954 the words “under God” were added to the United States Pledge of Allegiance; the first Sports Illustrated was published; the first Miss America Pageant was hosted; West Germany joined NATO; stop signs were changed from yellow and black, to red and white.

With so many exciting things happening, who would anticipate it as being the year of the birth of the Anti-Christ? Had I been alive at the time, I certainly would have been none the wiser.

3. The
Apostle Elisabeth Elijah Nikomia had a dream. God told her Oprah is part of Satan’s antichrist regime. You can’t argue with dreams from God.

4. Oprah walks into rooms and people fall prostrate before her. In fact, whenever she comes on TV, I fall prostrate. I actually hurt my hip the other day because of her.

5. Oprah is the most powerful celebrity in the world. A friend of a friend of a relative of a friend of mine told me she once sneezed in a restaurant and a man involved with the mob died instantly of a “heart attack”. Coincidence? I think not.


Top Five Things That Need to Find a Place in My Room

1. The super over powerful desklamp. It has been roving all over the floor, for months. It was on my bedside table but fell off, and has since been replaced by alot of things.
2. My Street Walk Sign. I found it in Vancouver in an ally, thinking that it would be a rad contribution to any cool guy's room. It has yet to contribute to anything but sitting behind my closet door.
3. Clothing. I have too many of these. I just don't have enough room. I am about to inherit more.
4. My Video Camera. I think that it needs to be in a very accessable, but poinent position. Maybe a full time tripod in the corner would be cool. I really don't know. It is on my bedside table, where my lamp used to be.
5. The organizational pixies.

I am off to the orthadonist, at 23. what a sucker I am.

Top 5 Songs that Intrigue Me

1. "Wheat Kings" - The Tragically Hip. I've only heard this song twice. It is beautiful. I don't feel like I know a song until I've heard it at least 5 times. Thus, it intrigues me.
2. "Soul meets Body" - Death Cab for Cutie. I saw these guys perform it live on SNL. I now want to see them live. They're all hilariously beefy.
3. "Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars" - David Bowie. I mean, seriously, what's that all about?
4. "Screaming Infidelities" - Dashboard Confessional. I've just never heard such an epic drum part for such an acoustic song. Always gets my attention.
5. "Where are You?" - Our Lady Peace. Is it happy? Is it sad? You be the judge.

Top Five Things That Prove I Am Magical

4. I enter rooms in a cloud of steam.
5. "Could it be Magic" by Barry Manilow....one of the very few songs with my name in it....coincidence???

Top 5 Reasons KD with Bacon is better than KD with Tuna and Ketchup

Because for some reason, I can't resist taunting someone I've never met.

1. Bacon, in all respects, is a superior meat to tuna.
2. Ketchup contains tomatoes. And although I like ketchup, tomatoes are a primary member of a dismal and little know food group called the "blueberry food group". This group has all the losers: blueberries, tomatoes, olives, and sometimes onions. In fact, I think tuna may very well be a member, although my research is far from complete.
3. I use a special type of KD (better than the original).
4. Butter and bacon is a beautiful combination. It's metaphorical in a sense. The union of bacon and butter can be likened to the beautiful union of a man and a woman in holy matrimony.
5. Tuna, in all respects, is an inferior meat to bacon.

Top 5 personal Favourite Bass Songs

1. Classical Thump by Victor Wooten
2. Seven Nation Army by The White Stripes (idiot simple, but still has a solid groove)
3. My Generation by The Who
4. Salvation is here by Hillsong United (the only christian song to make this list, because it is such a great Bass driven song and so fun to play)
5. Flowers from In Medias Res. Not really any particular song, I just really like his groove and his intensity (some may call it flailing) during there live shows.

Top 5 Strange Things I Do

Since Kyle tagged Stop Five Records in general, I thought I would add my list. This is my best 5, selected from a veritable buffet of choices.

1. I talk to the radio. Not just the DJ's, but the musicians too. I tell them how much I like/hate their songs, what they could have done better, etc. I also have a habit of trying to imitate James Blunt's voice everytime "You're Beautiful" comes on the radio.
2. I can only sleep in one position, ever. On stomach, one hand curled up to my face holding blankets, other arm stretched flat towards my leg. I then notch the heel of my front foot in between the big toe and second toe of my back foot.
3. I go to the mall. Not really to buy anything. Just to wander and watch people.
4. I airdrum while I drive. This one freaks people ot sometimes.
5. I refuse to drink milk with pizza. It just disgusts me.

Top 5 Reasons I Think Dan Could Take me in a Figth

3. You Are Goodlooking. Rule number 43: Goodlooking people are great fighters.
4. You Are a Great Friend. Only a great friend could really understand the emotional pressure points needed to defeat me. Seriously, the Judas angle.
5. You Would be Fighting for the Honor of Your Family. What more noble cause is there. To quote Tupac "You know what gang violence is, mostly... and the people don't want you to hear this: somebody shoots your family member, so ofcourse you retaliate."yeah, I get you man.

... you would win.

Top Five Most Intriquetely Orchestrated Plans Recorded on Film

1. Kevin Holds Fort *HOME ALONE* - Our little Hero has like a day to prepare after finding out his house is gonna be the victim of robbery. Break out the Crayon blue prints, and write in havoc. Hell raising havoc. Planned with enough time to still attend a Christmas Eve service and inspire the crazy old man down the street to take a chance on his family, and forgive himself.
2. Amelie Returns Talking Photographs *Amelie* - How to: first: be in Paris, then call the boy at work, tell him to meet you in a park and bring a franc. Draw blue arrows on the ground leading from a phone both to a pedestal and a telescopic pay viewer. Hire a man to paint himself the color of stone, and stand pointing at the telephone booth (a kiss on the cheek should cover it for you cute girls). Hire a little Child to tell the above mentioned boy "When the finger points to heaven, the idiot looks at the finger," when he stands in front of the statue. (5 gi joes should cover this) Call the phone booth nearest him from another phone booth nearby. Watch the plan unfold, and when he uses the franc to look back at the phone booth, return the talking pictures.
3. Revenge of the Gypsies *Snatch* - haha... get real mad, talk like a crazy guy, bust someones face with one punch and then kill everyone. Don't forget to look super rad all the time.
4. Steal From Your Ex-Wife's Boyfriend *Ocean's Eleven* - Daniel Ocean basically got a bunch of cool guys together (basically Brad and whoever, that's a group of cool guys) who wanted alot of money. Than they elaborately staged a theft of a huge casino, but wait they make the jerk think its his other casino. All the while Danny never took his eye from the prize, Julia freakn' Roberts. Well done, well done.
5. The Swinging on a Star Theft *Hudson Hawk* - A classic moment for me. I remember when I first saw this. I just love idea of using songs instead of stopwatches. Super funny, super efficiant. It doesn't even matter if it worked. This is ultimately the most "Orchestrated" plan. hehehehehe

Top 5 Reasons not to Watch TV with my Parents

Top 5 Moments in Ben Kweller's life

1. The Catch: whether powered by revenge, or honor, or courage, Ben made history that day and that moment he caught a sword in his bare hand enduring the pain to finally win what was easily one of the Top 5 Sword Fights of all time (see previous archived entry).
2. All was presumed lost (EVEN HIS LIFE!!!!), but Ben rose from the rubble to gain vengeance over his attackers. One by one destroying each one. Ben selflessly took on the role of guinea pig for both a new skin grafting procedure (which he invented) and a new neuron displacement procedure. What a trooper, what a hero.
3. When he ate the Evil Queen's face, thus bringing to end her evil rule.
4. Ben's List: During Nazi rule, Ben used his position to save the lives of over 1100 Jews. The understatement of simply saving their life should be noted, as there lives were to end with extreme brutality and torture. It is for these moments that we can truely thank a great man.
5. The Choice: After the Jedi Council Denied the training of a young child. Ben took it upon himself to mentor him. This boy would eventually bring balance to the force, and I think we all like a good and balanced force. The force needs to be in equilibrium and the scales of forcitude need to be steadied.

Top Five Reasons To Go To London, England

2. the museums and art gallery's have free admission. FREE. no cost to go in and see some of the greatest art there is. da Vinci, Titian, de Goya, Michaelangelo, Cezanne, Bottecelli....i kid you not. free.
3. the accents, ours and theirs....we sound cute to them, they sound cute to us...what could be better?
4. the possibility of finding a way into Narnia.
5. =with a bullet= "Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport. General opinion's starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, but I don't see that. It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often it's not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there - fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge - they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find that love actually is all around."

Top 5 new-ish songs that could change the face of the planet

1. Photograph by Nickelback: Jock (crotch??) rock will one day own the planet. I'm jumping on the band wagon before Chad Kroeger starts shooting people.

3. What Sarah Said by Death Cab for Cutie: Listen to it with a candle burning and you'll see your future.
4. Golddigger by Kanye West: So what if he is a little paranoid and kind of crazy. He writes better music than 10 of me combined. And that is a lot of me.
5. Holla Back Girl by Gwen Stefani: Because this Sh** is bananas B-A-N-A-N-A-S.

Baby we're back!!

4. Run outside in the rain and yell alot. This is generally fun, and also vaguely symbolic.
5. =with a bullet= Kiss a girl. I'm doing this one, since I missed my opportunity at New Years.

Welcome back Stop Five. It's been oh so long.

Top Five Worlds Inhabited by Stop Five Posters in the sights hiatus

1. Narnia: After Posting Top Five games to play in an old and fragile mansion, the four (Lucy, Susan, Peter, and Edmund) happened into the enchanted land through a wardrobe (yeah, I know... I don't believe them either). But we are happy to have Lucy, Susan and Edmund back. I actually took away Peter's posting priviledges until he can prove himself anything more than a complete Pansy with a sword. Rule number 110: If you can't swing a sword, get out of the battle.
2. Gotham City: Batman returned back to Gotham, in the final months of the Previous Stop Five Sight. He got heed of a serious plot to let all of Arkham on the loose. It was the responsible choice, and no grudges are felt for this: one of our greatest heroes.
3. The Labrynth/Oz: It was our guess that when Sarah and Dorothy went into those comas at the same time, that they would be going to the same magical land. This couldn't be the farther from the truth: The only connection between OZ and the labyrinth was a spring break fling between Jereth and Glinda back in the 60's. Anyway, they weren't expected to post during that time, because of there condition and internet access so all is well, glad to have you ladies back.
4. Artangelinskalina: Brad Pitt is still vacationing there. Umm... I don't really know all of why or how he got there, but I trust his judgment.
5. = With a Bullet = The Land of Fantastical Possibilities: This has long been a favorite spot for Stop Five Celebrities, who just want to get away from it all, maybe fight an epic battle, Kiss a beautiful Elf, Journey through enchanted forests, Rescue a long haired princess or be rescued, siege a castle or just chill as the animals and place settings put on a broadwayesque show for you.
