Adjust your attitude with an afternoon at the Golf Club, laugh or dance your cares away, or vent some rage with a slasher classic.
After a long week, it's hard to blame someone for needing an Attitude Adjustment, Fridays from 4 p.m. until 7 p.m. the Brookline Golf Club hosts a weekly session with complementary cheese and crackers for their visitors. Mike White signs books tonight at Brookline Booksmith. For those who don't know White's work, he wrote a book called "Impossibly Funky: A Cashiers Du Cinemart Collection," which gathers 15 years of funny, deep, and sometimes unexpected films.
