Yes, Vito, that was indeed vivid. I'm going to ask Geekette to stand over you with a pail of water (because I love the pail of water idea, and now intend to employ it as a behavior-enhancer -- at home, and maybe at the office).
So Big Vito doesn't acknowledge expiration dates? Could we have known that when he opened up the cherry liqueur that had been in Marie's kitchen for almost 30 years, drank the syrup and ate the ancient cherries? I remember that bottle from when I was a kid. I bet he had vivid dreams that night.
