The Scene: Liberty Hall, New Years Day sometime in the late seventies. Joe Nagle listens intently as Mae warns Uncle Joe that he has been working too hard. Off camera Willie prepares the whole poached salmon with hollandaise sauce as spectators Uncle Brendan and The Duke observe with coctails in hand. Jackie drops the needle on a classic Sinatra vynil LP. Patty and Ginny relax and enjoy one holiday that they do not have to cook or clean up. The kids are in the bedroom lobbing water balloons onto Riverdale Avenue. Uncle Joe whispers to Mae "I don't think there is enough food". La Famiglia.

And Gramps whispers to Mae, "The same shit, over and over." Bravo Michael!
Uncle Joe sure looks like he's enjoying that drink.
Long live Liberty Hall!
My kingdom for the good ol' days!
It looks like Pop is asleep.
Johnny, I love the alliteration.
