February 12

Today a day of public pageantry and ritual. A great day in sport, to be sure, wherein the participants rage at each other on the field, and the celebrants consume food and media indiscriminately. But equally, for those not given to the game, a time for rituals of engagement in the erstwhile busy and often oversubscribed city and its infrastructure. A day to hoist your child above your head on the playground, a day to run through the public parks with abandon, a day, in the ultimate assessment, to give to the gods some portion of your communal pleasure.
