After the first batch of 2010 league posts was whittled down, there are 40 posts left. Any suggestions?
I’d like to get this down to about 15 pieces, but maybe we could go as high as 20. If we do that for three years, though, we’re looking at a Journal of Ordinary Gentlemen with 60 articles. It might be a bit much. Honestly, this is a mindboggling task. I’d appreciate it if, in the future, the writers here would publish lower quality posts and more mindless fluff. Thanks.

All 40? Not an option? (How many pages are we shooting for, here?)Report
I was thinking a full sized newspaper, black and white, and about 20 pages, which costs about 70 cents to print. I am open to suggestions though.Report

Doin da best I can boss, doin da best I can 😉Report
I’m both flattered and chuffed to see Consumerism, etc.. on this list. At the time the piece was very much a meditation/pep talk to myself. My goodness a lot has happened in the year since then.Report
Yeah, I see nothing wrong with making this long – why not 120 posts? Few of them are much longer than a page or two…
Realistically, though, why not include 2011? It’s almost over, and you could take your time that way, have this out by Spring.Report
I fully intend to include 2011, but my hope is that someone else will go through those posts and I think Mark is looking at 2009.Report
Liberalism is elitism should be on the list.Report
