McSweeney's lists

Just came across this, and am finding it intermittently hilarious: http://www.mcsweeneys.net/links/lists/...have only dipped into it myself, but I do particularly like "Things Heard During John Cage's Folsom Prison Performance of "4'33""" (unfortunate conjunction of double quotation marks and all).

I'd imagine that the rest of the McSweeney's site is in a similar vein. Ah, Dave Eggers - love him or loathe him (or, as in my case, a bit of both), there's no avoiding the man these days (symptomatically, I read a few days ago that he's somehow associated, presumably as a screenwriter, with a mooted film version of Where The Wild Things Are!).
