Once, at a coffeehouse show, Arlo noted that "Alice's Restaurant" was 18 1/2 minutes long. Coincidence? Arlo thinks not.

He also designed the IDS Center in Minneapolis, my still favorite building in town.

I considered him for my list this year but left him off. My Angel of Death powers must be waning.

The time has come for someone to put his foot down.

RIP Dean Wormer.

How are you going to take a 99 year old off of your list?

He defied the odds last year, he could have done it again. Plus, I wanted to go with picks which might favor tie-breakers, as there are always a few surprises each year.

And really, with your track record, you shouldn't be asking these questions.

4-way tie for first place -- woo hoo! (Angel of Death, Atticus, Mr. Man and I all had him). Have there been any other hits this year?
