Essential? Important?

I love subjective lists. I reckon if we all sat down and wrote our own list, there would be some occurring more than others.

Still wouldn't be essential or important. May not be folk, unless somebody actually defines folk. I have dismissed as many definitions as I have had thrust upon me.

If they were essential or important to anybody other than baby boomers with beards, ethnic skirts and sandals, then Simon Cowell would be making money out of them.

I love alternative realities. They give me a warm feeling when I visit them.
