In the Devil's lair?

*

My paternal grandmother -- a teetotaling Methodist and a founding matron of the Webster Road Ladies' Aid Society -- will probably be spinning in her grave Wednesday as I take in the League of Municipalities convention in Atlantic City.

To be anywhere near so many gamblers and so much hard drink and wickedness would be to enter the Devil's own lair.

Not to worry, I would tell her, I'll be safe. I'll be hanging out with the politicians.
