Champagne - Scotch & Red & Black Pumps
Sunday, April 02, 2017
You would think that the two people here would have nothing in common. That is not exactly the case as what they have in common is a shared experience that I had with both.
Tarren won the Golden G-String prize in Las Vegas many years
ago. Since I was there courtesy of Maclean’s and the Vancouver Province, I had
a double scoop in my hands. A Vancouver Canadian had won amongst a large roster of
American and foreign ecdysiasts. To celebrate the occasion Tarren suggested I
drink some Champagne from one of her red pumps. This I did.
Yevgeny Yevtushenko and I connected in the late 90s. To
our mutual surprise we both spoke Spanish. His was a delightful Cuban accent.
We were joined by a young Vancouver/Russian poet who had stellar eyes.
Yevtushenko asked for one of her black pumps and we all drank Scotch from it.
