'When thou
makest a dinner or a supper, call not thy friends nor thy brethren nor
thy kinsmen nor thy neighbours who are rich; lest perhaps they also
invite thee again, and a recompense be made to thee. But when thou makest a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame and the blind. And thou shalt be blessed, because they have not wherewith to make thee recompense: for recompense shall be made thee at the resurrection of the just.' (St Luke 14:13)
Our Lord's dinner party guidelines are surely among His least popular and most rarely observed teachings.

Some who are last will be first and some are first who will be last.
You have Dolan dead to rights.
