Doesn’t anyone else besides my friend Rick Storrs and me have parties in their homes anymore?  I’m starting to get a complex that the only thing I get invited to are bar nights promoting people’s friends and DJ’s and other things that I don’t relate to.  Maybe I’m just getting old.  And this isn’t just a Facebook phenomenon. This has been going on for quite a while.  Maybe it’s a California thing?

My family, of course, invites me for no special reason all the time, but I’m beginning to worry that many of these so-called friends are just opportunists.
