12.Nov.2010 Reviving the Top Five (11/12/2010)

Back at the University of Vermont (UVM.edu) I posted my top 5 songs every week on what is probably the closest precursor to this site that there ever was (something like http://bsad.uvm.edu/jthibaul which was created with Microsoft Frontpage; thank goodness UVM taught me something useful in technology…NOT).
