In honour of Under the Volcano
'Tis the Day of the Dead, a fine day to drink and die as discovered by Geoffrey Firmin, ex-consul. Any fans here to raise a glass of mescal in honour of this superior novel (and pretty good film adaptation)?

Hugh: "Let him go Yvonne, he'll drink himself undrunk..."
Yvonne: "No! Something will happen to him!"

Hugh: "You heard what I said Geoffrey."
Geoffrey: "I don't think I did"
Geoffrey: "You little twerp."
Hugh: "Try me Geoffrey you piece of crap."
(Geoffrey punches Hugh with one swift blow. Hugh is looking up to Geoffrey)
Geoffrey: "Hugh, on the threshold of paradise...
puffing over her gills like a codfish,

salt as a wolfin pride.
Let them wallow here in their bliss
with my blessing."
Geoffrey: "Here take this shot. You need it..."
(Geoffrey, while still rambling... Meets another senorita, they get married and sail off into the sunset sippin Margaritas
-The End

Re: In honour of Under the Volcano
What are you on about you piece of crap?
Enjoy the original story from the writer's own experiences.
