The best ____ in the world, ever!

Okay, it's January. It's miserable. We all need cheering up.

I have an idea. It's probably a dumb idea and it will more-than-likely bomb. But bear with me.

You know those Top 100 things they have on over Christmas? In the UK they're usually on Channel Four, and have subjects like "The Top 100 Best Family Films". They get the public to vote, compile a top 100, and then wheel out a bunch of celebrities to talk about the results.

It's telly-by-the-yard, and an no-brainer way for TV companies to fill barren bank-holiday schedules, but I actually quite enjoy them. Especially with a bottle of wine and someone to talk about the results with. As long as there's not too much Jimmy Carr involved.

So yeah, my idea: reproduce this in blog form! And instead of celebrities use hamsters trannies! Not just trannies, basically anyone who has a modicum of taste, and a appreciation for this genderism we call Trans (i.e. anyone who reads my blog).

The process will have several steps:

Step the first: I decide on a topic. Something with a tranny flavour.

Step two: I get you to email me with your nominations.

Step π:
I produce a long list of the nominations.

Step delta: You all vote on your favorites.

Step E: I compile the top 10/20/50/100 whatever.

Step vi: I email out the toplist (in random order) to everyone who's taken part and ask them to provide witty comments and memories about items on the list.

Step 7: I compile a final version of the toplist, ordered correctly and including the best of everyone's comments, and publish an all-singing, all-dancing version on my website.

Step the last: Everyone is overcome by a wave of feel-good nostaligia which sweeps the world, solving the Middle East conflict and eventually bringing about World Peace.

Sound good?

I'm still working on the nitty-gritty. All I need from you now is a show of hands as to whether this is a Good Idea.

Thanks. :-)
