I met John in the swimming pool bar. It was one of those swim up bars and I was sitting there just finishing my drink when he “sat” down next to me. “What are you drinking,” he said. We were in Hawaii, so I said, “Mai-tai”. “Bartender, make that two,” he ordered. We began to shoot the shit and drink Mai-Tais. It didn’t take long for us to determine that he was here with his wife and I was alone.
About that time, a beautiful woman swam up next to John. The water in the bar was waist deep and I got a good look at her as she took a seat. “Who do we have here, darling?” she asked. “This is Brad and he is visiting Hawaii by himself.” I wasn’t sure why he said it that way, but she took notice and seemed to look me up and down. “I think we better ask him to dinner then, don’t you?” she said. “Ya, how about it Brad?”
