Best feeling in the world. Better than sex.

I suppose one's mileage may vary on that score. (Italics were added by me.)
That said: I will "me too" the exquisite sensation of a longing gratified after prolonged denial -- like that first cold beer after we spent 48 days on the gun line (afloat) off of Beirut in '84. I can still remember how delicious that beer was. It helped that it was a draft Molson's. Beer now and again tastes almost as good as that one did. Caveat: Guinness after a Hash House Harriers run is in a class by itself. :D
