Starting off the month with Drew Estate 7th Ave. Blonde in an Al Pascia meerschaum billiard, dreading my required morning wake-up time of 5:30. The smoke is certainly helping to take my mind off of such a thing--whoever this blonde is, she belongs in a much classier neck of the woods than 7th Ave. Methinks she should apply for a transfer.
