hopelessly devoted to deconstructing popular culture and conventional wisdom, one blog at a time

WHY AM I ON TV? Ah, yes. Some of you may have read the previous post and arrived at that question yourselves. I go on NECN every Friday afternoon to talk up local happenings and entertainment -- and in doing so, promote my paper, the Boston Herald, and my weekly calendar page, Seize the Weekend.

This afternoon, NECN host Leslie Gaydos decided to throw a pop quiz my way (for her amusement or for the viewers, I'm not sure) and ask me about pretty much everything I had written on the page. Good thing I wrote it all, eh? Hope it looked and sounded fun on your end of the tube.

Here is today's column. Enjoy. Unless it's raining from Ophelia, in which case, pick only the indoorsy events.
