Something jerked a memory of wintertime Christmas depression.
Christmas eve.
An Alaskan bar. 2315 local time.
I shot off my mouth and offered a ride to midnight mass to anyone that wanted a ride. Nobody was interested but a hooker came up to me quietly and said I could drop her off in the parking lot.
I said, "No. You're coming with me. As my guest."
We went to mass together.
Later I got a lot of shit over it from a few self righteous people.
40 something years later I think it was my finest hour.
