Two More Cents

ANOTHER list? What is this, BuzzFeed?? Anyway...

• If you ask me, Tom Hanks deserved just as much credit for "Joe Versus The Volcano" as he got for "Philadelphia" and "Forrest Gump."
• Gelato is vastly superior to ice cream in every imaginable way. And I WILL die on that hill.
• I freaked out when my kid swallowed a quarter, but the pediatrician said he’d be fine — as long as he didn’t make change.
• Sometimes I wish I could boldly go where no one has gone before… but there's always so much traffic on the Merritt.
• Let’s settle the Thanksgiving pie debate once and for all: Oronoque Farms beats Beardsley’s Orchard every day of the week and twice on Sunday.
• Even after all these years, watching Bob Ross paint is still the best sleep aid on the market.
• For me, it's not Christmastime until I hear Dan Fogelberg's "Same Old Lang Syne" on the radio twice in the same day.
• Using capitalization and punctuation in texts is the modern-day equivalent of sending thank-you notes — very few people actually do it, but the ones who do are the ones keeping society from completely collapsing.
• A bag of Cool Ranch Doritos, a Mint Snapple, and MTV’s "Remote Control"… now that’s childhood nostalgia. And speaking of nostalgia…
• I'm probably the biggest "Miami Vice" fan alive, and even I think another reboot is an atrocity. But if you’re convinced you have to do it, do yourself a favor and cast Donald Glover as Tubbs. You’ll thank me later.
