Party, or Really Party? That is the Question

I've invited bunches of people to my house this coming Sunday to play music and share potluck food. Three days ago I was informed that this Sunday is Super Bowl Sunday, and I might want to reschedule my get-together.

Should I waste my breath railing against a society that values a televised football game that is basically an excuse to eat junk food, drink beer, and exercise vicariously above a few hours of live, musical fellowship and revelry?

Nah. That part of my holy crusade against culture is over. Go ahead. Watch the stupid game. If it were the Red Sox in the World Series, I'd probably do the same thing.

  1. It was the Patriots in the Superbowl, and you KNOW you'd be watching the World Series if the Red Sox were playing. Not that you have to worry about that any time soon.

    1. Oh, ye of little faith. Jacoby, Adrian and Dustin are going to drag that team into the World Series this year.
