Shot Glasses
Shot glasses, as you probably already know, come in all shapes and sizes, all makes and models… As glassware goes, shot glasses have a rather salty reputation. Nothing conjures up images of sordid nights spent gulping coffee, trying to sober up, than the lowly shot glass
Nothing says white-trash trinket collector like a personal shot glass collection, but who are THEY to judge? The fact that I collect a shot glass from every personal location I visit should be no concern of those who would judge me without taking the time to get to know me
I still remember my first shot glass… The Army had given us an early leave from our duties on a week-day (I was stationed with a pomp-and-circumstance infantry unit in D.C.) and a friend of mine wanted to get out and make a productive day of it

We made the hour drive to Baltimore and took in the sights at the Baltimore Aquarium… Beautiful place. After the impressive tour ended, I visited the gift shop looking for some sort of memento to commemorate my trip. After perusing several books on whales and such, a rather impressive shot glass adorned with dolphins grabbed my eye. The rest is history, I’ve been collecting them ever since…
