Going To A Barbecue With Mark


My friend Mark - who works at the University of Denver Library - and I went to the house of one of my former DU Bookstore colleagues last night and had a great time drinking beer, eating hamburgers, and catching up with what each of us has been up to lately.  The three of us also discussed politics and the world situation, but could not come up with any solutions.  Surprise!  We probably just needed to drink more beer in order to come up with something workable.  In any case, the photograph above shows Mark showing us some of his cricket  moves.  Mark tried to explain the game to us, but it seems pretty complicated.  He told us that games can last up to 7 hours at a stretch.  I imagine that is because the game is so complicated it takes that long to figure out the rules and declare a winner.  No wonder the British Empire fell into decline.
