In the collection of villages known as America, there is one saying of sooth that rings clear: "Midgets are people too." But there is another truism that is as American as apple pie and Southern intolerance: America's relationship with the "Top Ten List." Although only one of them is etched in stone, there are many many more to be found within the abundant pages of the Internet.

We rank everything. From collegiate football teams to baby names. We measure both their power and popularity. David Letterman devotes a weekday-ly segment to this interest. We place sequential order to things such as desirable travel destinations, universities, colleges, and the gadgets that we may use when we head to those places. We decide what's most important out of what we already think is important, and put a little too much thought into this.

After sitting back and viewing one ordered list after another, I've decided to settle a few scores of my own. So take a seat, blogosphere. I've got the floor now, and I'll be showing you what's next in the progression. If you're with me, get ready to rally behind my tally, or tallies, as I plan to catalyze evolution through overload with a top ten list of top ten lists.

100 items in all if you're scoring at home.
