The Year-End List

One more time for 2025…

• People always say college was the best time of their lives… but the only thing I miss from that era is the chili cheese fries from Deli Haus in Kenmore Square.
• Chocolate chips in your pancakes, blueberries in your muffins. This is the way.
• An open letter to the brewers making eleventy bajillion IPAs: Orange juice is for breakfast, not beer. I am not a crackpot. #stoutsforlife
• If I owned a radio station, its call letters would be WUSS — and it’d play nothing but power ballads.
• Kenny Wayne Shepherd should’ve been a superstar. That dude could SHRED.
• The best thing to happen to baseball in the last decade is the return of the bullpen car.
• Widescreen HDTV did more to improve hockey than FoxTrax ever did — or ever could.
• I’m no expert, but I’m fairly certain that Queen biopic made Young Einstein look like a documentary.
• Proof that I’m not a writer: if it were up to me, that crate in the Pluribus finale would’ve been filled with blue meth.
• I HATE “special editions” and “director’s cuts” of classic movies… but if James Cameron would stop wasting time on Avatar and just clean up the effects in The Terminator, I’d pay a TRILLION DOLLARS to see it.
