THIS IS REALLY A LOVE STORY

Written by CHRIS FARAONE Posted February 12, 2019 Filed Under: COLUMNS, Dear Reader

Every line I enter into my computer about the Hub is also part of a love story, because like a parent in the 1950s (or today, I guess) attempting to rationalize smacking their kids, I truly love the objects of my animosity. Oftentimes, it hurts me more than it hurts Boston to level such relentless criticism.

SOME CHOICE WORDS FOR THE ASS WHO TROLLED ME AT A COMMUNITY MEDIA CONFERENCE LAST WEEKEND

Written by CHRIS FARAONE Posted November 7, 2017 Filed Under: COLUMNS, Dear Reader
