"Comfortable!"  What an amazing word!  I can't believe it took me this long to realize how great the word "comfortable" really is!
Being comfortable with your looks is one thing & being comfortable with who you are, is another.  However, to be comfortable with somebody
else is simply amazing!  It wasn't an easy road to take & I didn't even realize how comfortable I was, until Stoly, one of the drunken poets
at The Karaoke Bar, said to me: "Gosh Geo, you guys look so comfortable, together...  You're the 'Bonnie & Clyde' of glassware!"

"I spent three days with this girl,
hanging out at the casinos 'til five
o'clock in the morning..."

collecting glasses for our drinking game "Drunken Chess" & I hardly
mentioned anything about my photography, the web site or The Hype.
Is that a breakthrough in modern technology or what?

Well, on Tina's last day in Vegas, we roamed around The Aladdin Casino.  We tried not to collect anymore glasses, but I couldn't help myself.
I had to find "The King".  I met this bartender named Jim, who poured out two glasses of water, which brought "The King & I" together.  We had so much
fun stealing these glasses, that it didn't even dawn onto us, that we were winning a lot of money in the slot machines.  Ching!  Ching!  70 quarters
& 750 nickels!  We even kept a bucket by our side & poured all of our FREE drinks in it.  There was just too much alcohol coming at us!
White Russians, Bourbon & Cokes, Screwdrivers & who could forget our last two Chess pieces; The Queens: "Two Strawberry Daiquiris, please!".

Tina flew back home to Sweden, before we could finish collecting all the pieces.  I ended up all alone in the Stratosphere Casino, looking like a damn drunk.
I needed four more Pawns (shot glasses) & once I got them, I was through.   The thrill of the game, was gone.   -Geo D. Oliver, Alaska
