Task: Question Answering
Input (English): Context: Out of the Loop . I spend the weekend at the Old Family Homestead in LA , watching the Angels beat the Rangers and seeing the Bernini sculptures at the Getty . I did n't visit the internet once , only glanced at the local fishwrap , and watched no news on TV . So I missed an entire news cycle or two on Sarah Palin . 
Question: What may have been your reason for not checking the internet or news ?
Output (English): I had better and funner things to do .
