Because they're gone, though I'll leave out the actual names.

One of the participants in July married into one of the (many) branches of the Kennedy family. We sat with her at the opening dinner, and she told us how her family dropped her off at the bus station to send her off. So my colleague asked if they were staying in Boston while she was here. She said, "oh, well, (husband)'s family has a house on the Cape, so they're staying there for the month."

Hello understatement of the year! No shit they have a "house" on the Cape! And please, "house"? My friend's family has a "house" on the Cape, complete with an outdoor shower. Does your husband's COMPOUND have that?

I died. Seriously. It was so funny. Just like when she talked about "the Irish singer Bono," as if he was some dude who played at the Black Rose on the occasional Saturday night, hee!
