回复旁白的评论: Have you heard of the saying "Last Flight Out" specific for Key West? In my mind, that is all about max out every day of your life - 活著的每一天! You will see it on tee-shirts, store names, soveniours, etc in Key West. No wonder Key West attracts some of the most interesting people such as Tennessee Williams, Hemingway, and Henry Truman. Get a drink at Sloppy Joe's - it's a tourist thing to do but that was an old Hemingway hangout.
