  Illustrator Neil Cameron's A to Z of awesomeness is exactly that. "D is for... Doctor Who Defeating Doctor Doom in a Deadly Disco Dance-Off!" which is my favorite for obvious reasons. But I'm pretty fond of X and Z as well.

• Why George Clooney Was Mean at the Oscars, and Other Mysteries [Gossip Roundup]
  He was either drunk or not drunk enough... Gawker has a round up of all the Oscar gossip, re-read my twitter feed if you want my thoughts (I'm super busy today), but I wanted to draw special attention to what they said about Sandra Bullock because I agree with it 100%: "Sandra Bullock, stop trying to make us like you! First you gave the Platonic ideal of a great Oscar speech, then we found out that you showed up on Saturday night to the Golden Raspberries to accept your award for Worst Actress for All About Steve. Way to keep it real, sister." I think winning the Golden Raspberry and an Oscar in the same weekend is just about 229% cooler than just winning an Oscar, but I suppose I might feel differently if it was me being judged. That said, Bullock seems so perfect that I can understand why people would hate her, but they shouldn't. And also her husband is super hot. (Which is also not a reason to hate her. Jealousy is the only deadly sin I won't make some exception for)
