   hate homework. But the love of cricket (Cricket?)
and the depth of obscure complexity, and the, je ne
sais quoi? The sense of inherent, unalloyed
"rightness" about the game (Game?) and how it is
played (and not played)is sorta fascinating.

And it's sure true about the US perspective,
egocentric and what-not. It's like, it's so vast here,
and has everything, so the rest is just some quaint
foreign stuff or whatever, of interest to academics
and immigrant groups.

   serious, I don't know. But, all seriousness aside,
this here very list is a unique, for me, chance to
hang out regularly with them as don't suffer from the
above. Like fresh air, in a way, bearing in mind that
fresh air sometimes can bring a whiff of flatulence...
