Gone With The Wind

Morys is the storied dining club at Yale. It is apparently the largest Club in the World. You can still listen to the whiffenpoofs sing on Monday nights. But the number of undergraduate members now has dwindled to a few hundred (out of an undergraduate body of what? 5000).  Like a lot of WASP institutions, that aren't authorized by Ralph Lauren, this is a world that may soon be gone with the wind. and that probably is not a good thing.

Thinking of RL & Co.,  - - -  So funny how the pastiche is preferred to the reality of all this stuff.

Does reality not look or feel real enough to us anymore?

Only when we see things in films and adverts do they have any sort of authenticity for us these days.
