We are taking a rare Friday off so that each member of the ‘loper team can do what he or she does best. In no particular order, this may or may not involve sleeping, eating, reading, catching Casino Royale, indulging in a The Wire marathon, shopping, complaining about shopping, hanging with the in-laws, catching up with the TiVo, or designing the perfect media room. Other activities may involve drinking and visiting youthful haunts. Also football.
