The Lounge is open!

[EggsAckley]

Anybody got a light...?

[Eastbound]

Whoa! Another Friday already. Okay, Joe, I'll have a beer and a whiskey by. No, make that a whiskey, and a beer by. Better yet, just sink the whiskey glass in the beer. Thanks.

Howdy, Joe. I see you got the ladies all a'flustered on that other thread where Gabz posted the pic.

Great time, great people, and another fantasic memory. Great meeting you in the flesh.

[metesky]

Geez, a lot of threads this week, eh?

My local cigar store is having a tasting next week of cigars made from pre-embargo Cuban tobacco.

40+ year-old tobacco.

It was a pretty awful smoke the last time I tried it. Think I'll pass this time.

[Old Sarge]

'Evening. Do I understand that the bar is open, as well as the smoking lounge?

[KangarooJacqui]

*newbie gal strolls into lounge, flicks her red hair back from her face, and eyes up the clientele appraisingly*

Say, anyone got a light for my cigarette? They wouldn't let me bring my Zippo in on the plane... *sigh*

*Brightens up again* Oh, and the bar's open too, is it? *Smiles mysteriously* Make mine a Scotch and soda, if you'd be so kind? (There... that oughta explode the old myth about all us Aussies drinking Fosters... heh.)

Cheers y'all. Nice to know the entire US of A hasn't gone anti-smoking on me... and greetings from the all-too-warm Land Down Under! (Where it's early Saturday evening as I type, and therefore a fine time to get stuck into my two remaining vices... good liquor and good tobacco.)

[Redcloak]

Nice to see that the lounge is still in operation.
