We passed the day along, becoming increasingly drunk, while dancing, eating, and playing cards.  Anthony demonstrated his dealing skills as the audience, rapt with delight, kept a close eye.  The Euchre was fierce that day. Ralph and Nick were defeated by Karen and Anthony, but swore revenge.

The party began to rage! People wandered in and out. 

The TV, muted behind the sounds of Talking Heads, brought us Shanghai, and New Delhi.
