Today is December 31, the last day of 2007—Geesh! Already?!—which means it’s almost time for First Night festivities. If you, like me, grew up in an area where there’s no such thing, you might need a bit of a primer to understand what’s what. Thankfully, I’ve gone all out and put one […]
Well, they did it! On Saturday night, the New England Patriots defeated the New York Giants 38–35 to become only the second team in NFL history to go undefeated for an entire regular season. The first team to do the same was the Miami Dolphins in 1972.
But, wait, there’s much more. The […]
As has been widely reported, two-time former Pakistani prime minister and opposition leader Benazir Bhutto was assassinated yesterday at a political rally held in honor of her return to her homeland after eight years of self-imposed exile. The 54-year-old member of the Pakistan Peoples Party received a top-notch Western college education at Harvard and […]
I’m not even remotely a football fan, but I admit I am still pretty psyched for the New England Patriots. When the team plays the New York Giants this Saturday night the members will be going for an impressive 16–0 record to remain undefeated in the current regular season.
The only other team to achieve […]
This post is brought to you courtesy of the many fine ska/punk tunes streaming online at various bands’ websites.

Tomorrow is Christmas Day, and one thing that makes the current holiday season in Boston complete each year is the massive effort put forth by Globe Santa to ensure that December 25 is special for as many young people as possible.
The Globe Santa Fund was established in 1956 by the local newspaper the Boston Globe […]

So, what have the brilliant minds at Cambridge’s Massachusetts Institute of Technology been up to in 2007?
I spent significant time this morning browsing assorted Best Of 2007-type compilations on numerous local publications’ websites. As I expected from one of the most widely read free newspapers around these parts, the Boston Phoenix produced some particularly […]
There’s no doubt the New Repertory Theatre’s stage production of “The SantaLand Diaries” is one of the hottest tickets in Boston.
Based on the famous and beloved essay written by best-selling author David Sedaris and debuted by him during a 1992 reading on National Public Radio, the play recounts the writer’s real-life experiences when he had […]
We’re down to the final four days before Christmas! Fortunately, that doesn’t mean there aren’t still plenty of great events besides shopping going on around Boston, from rock concerts to theater productions. With all the talent in the area, Boston and its artists will continue spreading holiday cheer throughout the weekend and well beyond. […]
