The Emperor's New Trunks

For many years, I bandied about hotel swimming pools and Class VI rapids in a white Gianni Versace swimsuit. It was a work of art with ribbed translucent fabric and a silver belt buckle. The only problem other than it being see through when it got wet was that you had to be built like Arnold Schwarzenegger for it to really pop. VICE power-dandy Erik Lavoie had a pool party for his birthday last month so I decided to give the suit to him. He had no idea he was exposing everyone at the QT Hotel to his French-Canadian action but still I think he enjoyed sporting it. Alas, it was probably a one time occassion for him. I miss her sometimes especially when I am down at creek with a bunch of meth-heads and pitbulls. Gianni Versace is always an ice breaker.
