Bang on 5:30PM, like clockwork, Lenny raised his arms to the back of his head, lent back into his chair and took a big sniff of his shirt armpit. Milly could hear him taking in the air but despite the plastic protection the smugsmog very nearly knocked Jenny out cold. "Ah", he said, "You couldn't buy that in a bottle, eh?"

So it was whiff pungent irony that he was snuffed out by the Cosa Nose-tra. I smell a rat...
