Fall seems to be the time when everyone wants to compile lists. Everywhere I turn I see another party compiling the "Best of..." list. My favorite is the list compiled by the Shepherd Express. Some of my usual stomping grounds can be found there such as Beans & Barley, the Oriental Theatre, and Harry W. Schwartz Bookstore.

But, I'm always surprised by some of the winners. Especially some of the winners from the Shepherd. Boston Store won best Female Clothing store!?! Are you for real? Boston Store! Of all the options for women's clothing and a big box store wins?!?! What about Ma Jolie, Fred, Fashion Ninja, or Lela? I wish I had as many choices when it came to quality men's clothing....

Anyways, back to my topic. So, WISN Channel 12 is also compiling their "Best of" list which they are calling the A-List. I can only imagine who some of the winners will be. My predictions are it will go something like this:
Best Restaurant: TGI Friday's
Best Mexican: Spicy Chicken Snackwrap from McDonald's
Best Men's Clothing Store: Wal-Mart
Best Watering Hole: Orange Julius
Best "Alternative Lifestyle" Establishment: Milwaukee Art Museum

With all the list compiling going on I thought I'd just do one of my own. Feel free to add some of your additions.
