    The pleasure in fine things

    Smoking may kill you, but it is a fine thing to go out in style. I just purchased this for myself because my Zippo needed two hands for me to light it, and the wicks and the flints grew a bit tiresome.

    Here is a segue to way too cool:

    ladies torch

    and I can used it with one hand!

    I truley find pleasure in the simple, not so fine things. Such as a normal tea cup, i can sit in amazement just staring and examining every curve on it, everything is in such an extravagence when looked at closely.
