In this all-star game, Ron Sexton said he still feels like a batboy.

Joe Hadsall's Geeked Out: Graphic artist recognized
First things first: Brian Huntley is the MAN. The Globe’s graphics guru took an idea from Scott Meeker, a slew of photographs from art walk artists and T. Rob Brown and a bunch of nitpicking and revisions from yours truly. He turned it into the awesome image on the cover. Good on ya, brothaman.

Dave Woods' Booze Beat: Big hearts a staple among ‘bar people’
I love working the Booze Beat because I love bar people. I’m bar people, and in the circles I run, that’s a badge of honor. If I’ve learned anything in the last 25 years that I’ve served suds, shaken cocktails and sipped a few myself, it’s that bar people are a giving, caring and a little crazy breed of folks.

Dave Woods: Oklahoma City full of food, fun
When I tell people that one of my favorite weekend vacation destinations is Oklahoma City, they wrinkle their brows and look at me like I’m a little crazy. OK, maybe a lot crazy.

Benji Tunnell: Kidneys, ‘Bounty Hunter’ trailer cause massive pain
It is a great weight I carry, knowing that each week dozens upon dozens of people anxiously flip to my column, after spending ample time with sports, the weather and the occasional Beetle Bailey, dying to know what “that moron” hated this week.

Jeremiah Tucker: Mayer’s narcissism hopefully not catching

It’s quiet everywhere, except for Grand Country, where the parking lot is packed.
