Perhaps not on the same level as the sight of a pretty girl her walking along clad in her Spring dress improves a fine Spring day, but then, every little bit of fine (eye candy) helps.
I know exactly what you mean, especially on the metaphor. I was sitting on campus yesterday afternoon smoking before class and the pretty girls in springtime dresses definitely improved an already beautiful day. It was about 75 degrees, and it seemed like everyone was out walking around. That (and the cigars) almost make school bearable, some days at least.

Formerly known szyzk
When was the last time Rocky packaged the 1992 with a maroon-colored band? 2011? 2010? Either way, this one was boxed in 2009, and today seems as good a day as any to light it up.
Through this first inch it has displayed a pleasant pepper tingle that quickly dissolves into a mix of really strong cedar with sugar cookie, cinnamon, and kahlua bringing up the rear. There's also a far-off vegetal note that sometimes comes through as pure tobacco in taste, but it's fleeting. The retrohale is smooth as can be, the nicotine isn't noticeable, and the burn is razorsharp next to a bright white ash. It's good with my coffee (Pilon) but the profile is bright and bitey and I think it would pair better with a mojito!

I don't have emotions, and sometimes that makes me very sad.

After a long wet week of thunderstorms we caught a break, which means I had better mow while I can! And I also received my CI order and decided to try an Oliva Flor de Oliva Lonsdale that are meant for the grass watering days.
A little more mellow than I recall, though it was a Robusto I believe. Still not bad for its purpose.

Paul Stulac White Blinding Light Toro...6x56. Do enjoy smoking Paul Stulac cigar, but sure to wish he would make some in smaller ring gauge...maybe 42-44-46. But he makes what sells, and I'll from time to time smoke them.

Looks like you're getting a visit from the tooth fairy.
