Come on guys, I know you're disappointed. But in the long list of things that are messed up in the world, I am not sure that this one qualifies as being "truly tragic." Nobody died. Nobody even got hurt. It just means that you won't have a ball to go to. Oh well. Life will go on.

The editorial now reads that the loss of Founder's Day is "rather disappointing." Much better. Apparently the reaches of my influence are limitless.
We all died a little when we heard that Founder's Day was canceled. I still feel the pain, Mike. It hurts, oh God it hurts. You're right that life will go on. But do we really want to live in a world without Founder's Day Ball? Is that really living, Mike? Is it?
