We're on a mission to post one best-of-2008 list each day inDecember. That's 31 lists, reviewing all of the greatest, worst andmost memorable entertainment moments of the year. Day two belongs to Kanye.

There's no point in listing 2008's greatest celebrity bloggers — in The Monitor's eyes, there's only one man and his name is Kanye West. To celebrate his body of 2008 writing (July was a particularly good month) here's a list of our favorite posts from Kanye's blog (topped with our favorite photo):

• 1. NOT FOR ME BECAUSE I'M STUPID RICH AND CAN JUST BUILD A FIREPLACE IN MY WALL, BUT IF IT WAS 5 YEARS AGO IN MY OLD APARTMENT IN NEWARK, OH YEAH!!! SEXY TIME! — April 1, 2008:
  It's this type of refreshing honesty — and lifestyle advice for the less stupid rich among us — that we can't get anywhere else.

• 2. HARPER'S BAZAAR .....I DON'T HAVE A PAINTING OF MYSELF AS AN ANGEL — July 6, 2008:
  To quote the mighty Wooderson, "It'd be a lot cooler if you did."

• 3. NO ANGER MANAGEMENT... IF ANYTHING I NEED ANGER ENHANCEMENT! LOL!!! — July 7, 2008:
  I told the media you can't make up lies about me because I have a media outlet myself. ... Check this out...I took a quote from my rant and used it as my headline.. just like a real media outlet would... hahaha

• 4. I DON'T KNOW WHO THE HELL THIS IS... BUT I COVERED HIS NAME AND FACE SO HE WOULDN'T GET THE PUB HE WAS OBVIOUSLY LOOKIN' 4!— July 16, 2008:
  We didn't believe that ghost-blogging story for a second, Kanye.

• 5. NO SERIOUSLY... THIS COVER IS ILL... ARTISTICALLY... THE WAY SHE'S RIPPING THROUGH THE WORDS... NO SERIOUSLY .... THAT IS A DOPE ASS IDEA!!!!!!!! — August 20, 2008:
  Kanye has got to be the best headline writer in the business. No, seriously.
