Let’s handle our business.

› Rushmore of musical Peters — Frampton, Townsend, REM’s Peter Buck and Peter Pan.

› Rushmore of Josh Brolin movies — his turn as Thanos in all Marvel universe vehicles (yes, the Lil’ 5-at-10 and I will be attending the new Marvel feature film tonight; it’s tradition), “No Country for Old Men,” “Goonies” and “Deadpool 2,” which I thought was hilarious. (Have not seen “Sicario” but appreciate the praise from folks around these parts.)

› Rushmore of Burt — Reynolds, Ernie’s manpanion, Lancaster and Burt Young (aka Paulie from the “Rocky” films).

› Rushmore of swimmers — Phelps, Spitz, Ledecky and Travis Henry’s baby-makers.
