Good Sucking

After a most delightful evening of food, conversation and companionship with my cousins last night, they, as always, loaded me up with after dinner mints as I made my exit.

The wonderful thing about a mint is that once you tire of sucking on it, you can put it down, anywhere, leave it there for days, weeks, or months as you please, and then when you go back to it, brush off whatever dirt may have accumulated and finish it up.

Not everything sucks so bad.
