Great moments in sideboob.
Any fine, hand-made cigar has two ends, the "cap" at the top which you cut and put in your mouth, and the "foot" at the bottom where you light it. I always take a look at the foot when buying or smoking a cigar, but the other day was the first time that I really sat down and inspected one with a magnifying glass. It was only then that I truly saw the mlange of colors and textures and patterns that are in a fine cigar.

Incredible Space Pics from ISS by NASA astronaut Wheelock
No summary.
The Paris Metro and the service it provides are deeply intertwined into the fabric of the city. As the 4.5 million Parisians who ride it every day will probably attest it's the quickest way around whether it's for work, for play or both. The metro's distinctive art-nouveau style is unmistakable and the plant like green wrought iron entrances topped with the orange orbs and Metropolitan signage designed by Hector Guimard which sprout up all over the city lead one down to the gleaming white tiled platforms to be whisked away all over the city. On my first trip to Paris I arrived into Gare du Nord and entered the dense maze that is the metro. Despite the crowds, the noise and the distinct odour of meep, I was in love. The kind of love which inspires one to risk life, limb and deportation to get up close and personal.
