2005 Year in Review 

So 4 people sent in replies. There was a mixup with one of them and we got a blank reply, but hey, A for effort! I am answering this as I put it together myself. Then, you know, I waited for like, 8234 months to write this up. There were some clear-cut winners, but mostly everyone had completely different opinions, so I just wrote it all up for the world to enjoy. Um, and also, all italicized comments are courtesy of me, your faithful, loving and ever-so-timely editor. So enough with the excuses, letīs give it a whirl!
