That should be easy to get across. That way, security won't know we've come in. I know Cindy would love to 'see' me right now, if you know what I mean, man.&quot; &quot;Ha, ya. I could go and hang out with Meaghan, or Sarah, while you do your 'seeing'.&quot; Oh, the stupid things we convince ourselves are perfectly logical, under the influence of alcohol. John often had &quot;great&quot; ideas while drinking. He was a regular bar-stool philosopher. Unfortunately, I was his disciple. If he thought it was good, I would go along.
