I am voting on sdrealtor’s theory as the most likely reason. There is one thing that binds suburbanites and that is alcohol. If a neigbor shows up with a bottle of wine, insist on opening it right there and sharing it don’t just accept it as a gift, that is how I invite myself over. If you don’t get the welcoming comittee, become the chairman and start crashing other people’s houses with wine as a “gift.” All you need is one taker and you will be in the club and get the invites. It also lets you know who the non drinkers or religious wackos are so you can avoid them in the future, life is too short to have sober friends. Cheers!
