I'm a Loser, Baby...
Give me a break. Tufts' (my alma mater) commencement speaker this year was Meredith Vieira? I mean, come on, Bryant [Frickin'] College got George H.W. Bush, and the best we could do is a professional leg model and TV chatterbox who hosts a show that nobody under the age of 40 has ever watched once in their lives? Were Elizabeth Hasselbeck and Star Jones booked?
This was preceded by my 10th reunion, held at the Joshua Tree in Davis Square, which achieved a certain sort of platonic perfection: people I couldn't stand 10 years ago, hanging out at a place I avoided like the plague 10 years ago. Having attended the 5th, which reminded me of nothing less than a trip to the dentist's, I decided to sit this one out and regretted it not a bit.
