They took such good pictures of the drinks:

Yeah, it's o-kay, I suppose. More like he's a professional, and I'm...not! Those are some fine shots.

However, my "point and pray" style of gonzo photogging does elicit a certain rawness absent from the newsman's pics. Sure, his look absolutely incredible, but do they possess my photos' substance and love of the drink? What I lack, and it's a lot, in photgraphic ability, I compensate for in pure base emotion. Cocktail verite, if you will.

Kudos on the press, El Martiki. I saw the little photo on SFGate's home page and thought, "FI?". Not until The Jab's post here did I investigate the story. Great press, way to go. Maybe I will come and visit Forbidden Island now.
