WHEN I WAS 16 AND LIVING IN MIAMI BEACH, I USE TO GET FREE FLIGHTS ON CHALK SEAPLANES TO NASSAU AND THE BAHAMAS. FAMILY WORKED FOR EASTERN AIRLINES ...I WOULD GO ON A WEEKEND AND SLEEP ON THE BEACH OR A HOTEL LOUNGE CHAIR ... FREE BREAKFAST AND HAPPY HOUR AT THE HOTELS ... THE Y THOUGHT I WAS A PAID GUEST. ANYWAY I WOULD WEAR DARK SUNGLASSES AND A BLAZER ... PUT BLACK EYEBROW PENCIL FOR A MUSTACHE TO LOOK OLD ENOUGH TO GET IN THE CASINO WHICH ONLY OPENED AT NIGHT. I GOT SOME OF MY VERY FIRST CHIPS FROM THESE CASINOS. GREAT MEMORIES, I FELT LIKE JAMES BOND VISITING DR. NO. THE FLIGHT OVER WAS VERY SCARY (see pics) ... MY bIG fISH!
