If you occasionally want something better than beach schwag but don't have a good connection you may want to try this trick when you feel the need to "turn I loose". After a good meal ask your host for something better than average and have him add it to your meal bill. I did this a number of times with excellent results. Let me post a caveat to accompany this idea: you might want to wait until you're back at your digs.

I'll explain.
One night (I've purposely taken this out of time context to protect the innocent) I placed this order and indulged before we moved on. Mrs. Peel had to step in when the bill came because I didn't think the bill was high enough. I sure was. I checked the record with Mrs. Peel to make sure alcohol wasn't a factor in the next part of the story, she said we'd had two beers with our meal. The reason I asked is because we were walking home on the west end road and absolutely the only way I could maintain a modest sense of equilibrium was by stiff arming the wall of Samsara and La Kaisers. I'd weave hard to the right, then stiff arm the wall to get back to an upright position. I was for all intents and purposes kneewalking buzzed. That spliff laid me lower than any herb I've ever tried before in a rather jaded lifetime.

That was a wave.

Be advised and enjoy!
