Ghost Stories..I simply love it. The only downside is that the rules are fairly badly written but once you get it the game is extremly fun, hard and rewarding.
We usually just use all four monks and collaborate on the moves (i.e. all players play all monks). I like it quite a lot more than Pandemic. I really enjoy coop games, Arkham Horror is pretty nice as well.
I wouldn't explain GS drunk eventhough it's actually pretty easy but the devil is in the details. But it's an excellent game to play drunk once everyone understands the game. Done it quite a few times...pretty fun to bitch about the ghost draws etc heh
GS is pretty solid as a solo as well.

my understanding of vinci is that it is almost exactly small world only with no theme and colored cubes. not sure why a person would want both in a single collection of games
Yeah this is pretty much correct.
Also two two player abstracts you should investigate are Hive and Yinsh. Yinsh is probably my fav abstract eventhough I haven't really figured out a great strategy and we played Hive on our last microbrewery tour. Good travel game.
