Lol. Guilty of #3 myself. I'm a horrible writer so I rely on things like Top X lists to relay my otherwise undecipherable messages.

Hey Snackster! Thanks for dropping a comment in the bucket. I like the Top 2 idea. Maybe a top 1 list? Minimalism at its best. I thought Letterman invented the top 10 list. But I could be wrong. Blog on!

I like “Top 2″ lists. It is more of a couplet than a real list, and indecisive people to have an inner wrestling match. You just don't get that with a top 10 list.

But seriously, because of Letterman, people expect the #1 in the list to be sort of lame and the #2 or #3 really being the best reason

Top 3 list? Do I smell… PATENT??

I do like me a good Top 10 list and they're harder to write well than most people think. It's because of #5. But I guess a Top 3 List doesn't sound so enticing, does it?

How's that patent coming along?

Hi Curtis and Jaffer. Sorry for the delay in my response…Disqus is now blocked at work, so I can't catch up on replies until I'm home.
I think Jaffer is in a time continuum warp with his numbering. Tis true, Jaffer and I are now inseparable due to comment organizational standards I imposed upon myself at Kathy's blog. Curtis, thanks for the words. I hope you look at Top 10 Lists in a different light now.
