Give thanks and say hallelujah. Our very weird year is just about in the rearview mirror. Only a handful of days remain before we hit ctrtl-alt-del on the calendar, pop the corks and hope that the New Year is substantially better than the one we just had.But before we close the books entirely on 2017, I wanted to take a couple of minutes to look back on some of my favorite stuff from the past year, whether that was journalism, music, film or television, or whatever.1.
