Kamikaze

Alan Catlin
They must have started out somewhere in another country and hit every bar between wherever there was and here. They ended up against the bar around midnight looking for kamikaze shots. “Give me one good reason to serve you guys.” I sd. “We want to fly out here straight into the sun whenever it comes up.” I made them shots.
