Trying to locate my "Greatest Hits"



Black and I were talking last night, right before my shrill, insistent voice somehow lulled him into a comfortable slumber, and he expressed an interest in seeing "every one of my articles from the past five years or so that I ever considered to be any good." Hence, Black is one of my favorite new people, even if he thinks of my voice as something with a soporific quality.

At one point, I told Black that I'd written Top 10 film listings with commentary for the last three or four years, and he told me to send them his way. Here's the thing, though. I told him that I don't have them, for I don't think I do. I mean, I know what my top pick is from the past couple years, but I don't have the e-mails with the rambling commentary anymore.

I'm going to keep looking, but if any of you readers out there happens to have been such a fan of my work that they kept any of the Top 10 listings, please send it along to me. ("Far from Heaven" was my top pick last year, for instance.)

I will be grateful. Black will be grateful. (And if I have to read it aloud to him over the phone, Black will probably fall asleep again, which is probably a good thing because I think he might work too hard.)
