So does it me Ric, agreed, but only because it reminds me how mortal I  
am ...

These two guys share the essence of humanity, whatever it is they are  
actually sharing cig, booze, bonuses, etc.

It is as such an outstanding street photograph: the guy counting how  
many cigs he can give and still remain within his comfort zone, the  
other one, expecting at least one or a rebuttal, or ...

who's who? he is what I was , he was what I am etc.

So human, poignant, and so symbolic of life as it is.

Kudos Don Lluis - HCB will be furious you copyrighted it ;-)
