The Men's Retreat

A real triumph (Does "tri-umph" mean three uphs?--Ed No clue. Resume narrative. . .) tonight, with a beef tenderloin accompanied by Turley and Denner wines, and after-dinner readings from Melville, Gibbon, Erich Auerbach on Dante and the importance of the Roman Catholic church--accompanined by the canon of Phish, Jethro Tull, and moe. Poor young Thomas is a bit confused by the combination of St. Thomas Aquinas and skirt-chasing.
