The sons took some friends and had a blast...

Our origins may not be the same, but it seems that others are reclaiming Columbus Day for their own hedonistic purposes. (psst, theirs dates back to 1996.) Makes me want to research other Columbus Day gatherings.

Believe it or not, only a few pages later, the author makes a random reference to a djellaba.

I'm starting to think I am meant to read this book for some strange reason.
