Alright this is something that very few will actually sympathize with, but dammit I never knew until it was gone!
Two times in my life I went into a SC and started partying and having a good time while I received some.... gratification - while having a damn good cigar.
I will now wax nostalgic about sitting in a dimly lit room, music blaring, strong alcoholic beverage in one hand, $10+ cigar in the other, and a young beauty, slowly, gently, then strongly and feverishly... then slowly and gently bobbing on the knob. The nicotine and booze flowing through the blood, the smell and taste on my nose and lips, the sensation well... elsewhere until I would have to put both the drink and stoggie down to see nirvana.
And then a relaxing swig of booze combined with a long draw on a fine tobacco stick.
All gone. To the morality police. Because my portly ass won't die of heart disease WAY before my once a week cigar habit kills me. It just occured to me that I may have to leave the country to ever enjoy this kind of simple (yet perverse) pleasure again. Is there a major city in Texas where I could have a chance at this type of thing again? - I think not.
*Sigh* I guess there are always memories, but damn I hate the nanny brigade. Ok, this ones for me:
Anyone else?
