Something that's been puzzling me, Sharon--

My mother's neighbors did a "shivaree" when they were on their honeymoon at the cottage, banging pots and pans; and she cannot recall the event without a shudder of sheer revulsion and horror. She absolutely hated it.

(I've got to side with my mom-- I think I'd shoot someone who came banging pots and pans around my house.)

I take it you see this differently? was that the "good thing" Maura was trying to get Gamba interested in?
