Comebacks
Okay, so you lost a few bucks last month. Well, more than a few bucks. And your dignity. And your confidence. And your sense of self-worth. And … well, let’s not let this get out of hand.
But there are always comebacks in life.
Brett Favre, after all, retired from football completely, then managed a painful comeback, culminating in a tryout for a team he took footsteps from the Super Bowl.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn came back from the Gulag to win the Nobel Prize for literature, a stretch in Vermont, and a dingy studio apartment in Moscow.
The Yankees are coming back from a dismal first half to another AL East title. (Of course.)
So what are you thinking? Naturally, you’ll come back.
Right.
Anyway, be here at 8 PM, Wednesday, Aug. 6 to see where you rank against the great comebacks of history. Like Richard Nixon.
Best,
The House

What are the odds that the one-and-only Manny will COME BACK to haunt us in October? What are the odds that an E-Bay (he’s made 8 of them already this year) will cost the Sox a critical game? I look forward to pondering these and other great questions of our time with the local cognoscenti on Wednesday evening this week.
As they say at Star Island–”We WILL come back!”
