Haha! Move in next to me. I've got the cigars and the 30 years younger covered.

Heh. Smells are such funny things. I remember growing up, how I loved the smell of vanilla extract... and then one day, I tasted a drop and... yikes, vanilla overload. Some things are better from a distance than up close. Coffee, the same... although that's a taste I have acquired. And I'll take coffee ice cream over vanilla, any day.

I hope some opportunities find you. And knock just as often as they need to.

I'm not a regular cigar smoker but I have to admit it is a guilty pleasure. I'm looking forward to a good cigar and a sazerac when I'm in New Orleans next month.

I still have not acquired to chops to drink bourbon straight but have had a couple of out of this world bourbon based cocktails over the past year. Familiar rituals are nice to come home to.

What is the point of drinking alone and thinking about lost opportunities?

So long as there's relocation assistance and a healthy severance package, I would consider it. I'd probably need a little more enticement. How's the sushi out there?

Fair enough. As long as you're happy at the end of the day.

I did, thanks much!

I was going to suggest you and d_day have a chat, but I see that's already happened.

I would drink with you.

Sadly they really have no good way to give feedback to the management. They are very defensive and take anything people say very personally. I'm thinking that it is just time to move on.

I wish I liked the smell of cigars. My dad smokes them and I hate them.
