evening

Here's a way not to run an evening reception:
6:30 scheduled start of program
6:45 actual start of program
7:30 scheduled end of program
8:05 actual end of program
8:10 people descend on food-and-drink area
8:12 to discover that it's more drink than food
8:13 and some of these things are really not meant to be finger food
8:15 and, hello, dinner time was two hours ago and we came from work
8:45 and the celebrity panelist doesn't seem to be at the reception
9:00 patrons leave, drunk and lightly fed on greasy food
