Amazing what one single daiquiri can do for a shopping mall.  True, it’s 32 ounces, frozen, and made with tequila but still, moments ago the air-conditioning was the only thing good in this whole place and now it’s all one big sparkly candy store!  A heavenly procession exits the shoe store and ascends.  Tall men in white suits, gorgeous women the entire width of the escalator.  In front of the hot pretzels a man has burst into song.  All of the rest of us are clapping along.
