We attended midday soiree today. I have to say I appreciate someone planning an event for a Sunday afternoon and having the consideration to pick a weekend when the Giants' game is on Monday night. Now that's social grace. Unfortunately, right before our departure, the server crapped out, and something seems to have impeded getting this attended to until now, so apologies for the downtime.
