Who says irony is dead?

Among the groups who have held parties at the former Texas Schoolbook Depository is a lawn and turf services company who wanted to hold a promotional party overlooking the grassy knoll.

Sixth Floor Museum officials aren't entirely tone-deaf. They've heard the concerns about having parties here, and they point to the museum's own limits on what behavior is acceptable. Dancing is banned, for example. And weddings and bar mitzvahs are prohibited, though plenty of people routinely call to inquire about holding such events there.

"We try to be sensitive to the sanctity of the site," says Sam Childers, marketing manager for the museum and a presidential history buff. "We know this is a sacred place. It's not something we take lightly."
