Four cornered bottles is right. My friends were on to me in high scholl, forbade me from tequila. Had my first shot in the friendliest surroundings recently, besides with Mexic food obviously, and it sent my soul to elsewhere, 8 hours of house painting to roll on round wheels again. I want to recommend Daniel Clowes's "wilson" book. Your library has it. Back of the book blurb from the Guardian says c " has created a monster. But one that inspires us..." i donot know, maybe there is some great drama in our resignation to small victories...kind of like good taste, that could be a way to interrupt the heroic stream, since it comes with BIG WORDS duties, to end a story in good taste, responsibilities and maybe recriminations? Hmmmm.

I've never had the white person with tequila experience - thank god! That's supposed to be a brutal initiation. Very lucky to be spared that.

After 50 years of doing mostly successful couple counseling, I've come to believe a couple like the one in your good story has a chance of getting more easily attached over time. I've seen it. Real companionship is powerful.

My teacher said, "I take you for my pain in the butt," should be part of any wedding vows.

Thank you Ed! I kind of agree. I think this couple will work out actually.

Great story, cleverly written with a total lack of sentimentality.
