Where is the game? On UNC turf or Duke? I don't think I want to be
driving (or parking) in Chapel Hill on a game night....

If it's in Durham, it'll be OK. (Though, on rereading Uzi's post, it
looks like he said open mike night *starts* at 10, not ends at 10)...

Skylight is Okey-dokey by me...

My brain seems to have a circuit-breaker-like mechanism that, when I get
confused and befuddled by the overwhelming monstrosities of my life,
causes a default to the simplest and most pleasant of thoughts. Like
Marshmallow Peeps. I *like* Marshmallow Peeps.
