Kitty wants me to e mail her this clip of "Mr. Tambourine Man." From the "Wonder Boys." Well, since you're my destiny and sole mate [ pun intended ] here it is Pumpkin.
Me and Kitty had a ball in Vegas. We traipsed memory lane by visiting our Honeymoon Hotel, the enigmatic "Flamingo. "Man, things had changed. Most of the blackjack dealers were from Vietnam-gotta love the synchronicity and the global economy, but it was kinda bad when I could count faster than our dealer. Which isn't so amazing because yours truly has a gift for adding numbers with a quickness.
Gil was the pitboss and jovial, gregarious was he. There were 3 good ole boys already sitting there when we arrived. One had a goatee and sounded just like Louie Anderson, Jr. Another was called Opie by Gil. Whether it was his real name or not is speculation on my part, but Opie didn't seem to mind and swigged beer after beer.
The other fella seemed the most normal and had more of an idea how to play the game. Louie and Opie were cursing their luck while Kitty was winning hand after hand. Guided by you-know-who.
Gil played our hands a few times, and when we won, he said, "See, it's an easy game!"
Kitty won over a hundred bucks and bought herself a new bag [ pocketbook ] We bade adieu to Louie, Opie, and the other fella. Gil had left by then, leaving us to fend for ourselves.
Me and Kitty want to go back soon. Cos we had the time of our lives. Apologies to Patrick Swayze.
