Guilty as charged of Laodiceanism, indifference, unconcern, passiveness. I attend only if it is convenient, if the weather is nice, and if there are no special programs on television.

Does that mean I pay only lip service?

Yes.

If I can haul my arse all the way to Chennai why can't you? It's just not cricket.

Make sure you buy and try a bottle of each of each of the Goan Red and White ports which are available in India. Goa has a long and rich Portuguese heritage and it shows in their production of indigenous port-style wines.
