You can only pick one.
Mine would be going to bed knowing I don't have work the next day.
Recurring Unearned income (aka. dividends from stocks, rental income, etc). Better than sex.
Screaming at the television on Sundays
Chocolate chip cookies
Driving fast
Female affection
The whole movie theater experience. Anticipation, popcorn, great previews, etc...
And no, I do not care if any of these things qualify as "beta".
I think the answer should be sensual in nature as opposed to "what do you enjoy doing". After all, you did say pleasure.
It would have to be fighting. A cocktail of competition, danger, fun, and pain.
I forgot one.
The single best exercise there is: wind sprints.
The endorphin high is exquisite.
Making $.
Traveling.
Quality time with the people I care about.
I don't think it's fair to say just pick one. We're renaissance men here.
I really enjoy my morning coffee. That with a nice toasted bagel with cream cheese. Or a pork roll egg and cheese on a nice round roll. Fucking fantastic.
Other than that I really like having deep one on one conversations with anyone. I like to be persuaded to someone's opinion. I also enjoy playing devil's advocate and trying to debunk someone's argument.
I like stealing. I download just about anything I can get my hands on. And if I can't download it I'll find some who has it and schmooze them into giving it to me.
I like knowledge. I like to know how things work. Mechanical things, cars, computers. I take things apart. I like figuring out people's thought processes. Psychology is fun. Logical and emotional manipulation is fun.
I play and collect guitars. Some are high tech. Some are old school and weigh 40 pounds. I like each one for different reasons. It's fun to write music and figure out your favorite songs. It's a mental exercise. It's right and left brain at the same time.
Thick cut applewood smoked bacon....

Breaking through a PR.
Just working out, period.
Driving fast (Good one shotgun) Also driving like an asshole, getting back at someone else that's driving like an asshole, cutting them off etc
Getting eye contact and smiles from girls.
Getting physically touched by random girls (them putting their hand on your arm, back, etc)
Certain foods and wines. The kobe beef tartare with Osetra caviar at Urasawa. Vintage Krug, Cristal, Salon. Old Cognac. 2001 Chateau d'Yquem. Perfectly ripe strawberries. Braised pork belly. Bluefin tuna. Foie Gras. White or black truffles shaved over buttery scrambled eggs. Perfectly ripe pears from Frog Hollow Farm. Italian Chestnut and Acacia honey. Salted butter from Vermont Creamery.
Molly.
Nailing a guitar piece.
Agree with investments. Nothing like watching a stock that's up 20%
Edit: Whoops, I didn't see the part "only pick one".
Out of all of what I wrote, I'm going with the pleasure of exercise.

Cheesecake. Its a vagina for my tongue.

flying
So many:
Daytime naps
Sitting on a beach on a sunny day
Playing basketball
Watching a really big soccer match
Excellent food
Planning a new trip
That feeling you get when you step off a plane, regardless of how tired or jet lagged you might be
Spending time with my childhood friends

man, you haven't had a strawberry till you've had BC grown strawberry the morning after a heavy rain. Some of the best fruit on earth.
Cold, clean water when you're extremely thirsty.

Some of the best fruit I've ever had was in Brazil and Costa Rica. Fresh mangos right off the tree. Bananas were fantastic. They lose 90% of their flavor by the time they reach the supermarket.
A nice bottle of Amarone.
Ripping out a solo onstage.

Came in to post this ^
Drinks with ice in them.
Surfing a long clean faced wave when it isnt big enough to be scary, but enough to pack a punch.
Feeling the sun on bare skin.
Being on a plane knowing you have nothing to do but relax for the next 12 hours.
Seeing old mates for the first time in years.

When I was young, this was the ultimate high. There's nothing like enjoying ill gotten gains that you risked life and limb to obtain.
I work hard, and earning money is very satisfying. Accomplishing great things professionally is very satisfying. But there's nothing in the legit world like a sweet pull.
