Thank you, Grammys

I normally have absolutely no use for the Grammy nominations, but one category gave me a cause for celebration. Among the five nominees for best new artist is Fall Out Boy, responsible for this year's poster song for the Stop Saving Rock campaign, "Sugar, We're Going Down".

You see, there is a mostly supported curse on the winner of the new artist award. Granted Mariah Carey and Sheryl Crow have heartily survived the curse, but you also have to consider past winners such as Milli Vanilli, Men at Work, Arrested Development and Sheena Easton.

So now there's a one in five chance that the curse will soon haunt Fall Out Boy, ensuring that I won't have to hear them cock it and pull it for too much longer.
