I enjoyed a Savinelli Nicaraguan Reserve over the noon hour, hanging out at Cliff's and yapping with my komrades, Uncle Booga and Miles.

You must have a secret admirer that's been by Nebraska long enough to grab some matches. Or, maybe YOU have been playing Santa on another board, like Tom V has been. Naughty naughty, Clay.

Sadly, Ray recently deleted his Social Cigar account. I e-mailed him, and he wrote that he's not smoking cigars or anything anymore. :-(

I, for one, don't travel much, and when I do, it's with the family. I was in Philly this summer, and some of the fine East Coast S/BOTLs met up at Mahogany on Walnut. Karl, Sandi and Herbie made the trek from NY, and Clay brought the whole clan from…

Done. I like the question 'When was the last time you bought cigars' I wish I could answer "2 hours ago". Also, the online bit should have an option "I'm never OFFline".

Saint Jimbob of the Apokalypse replied to JohnLongIsland's discussion 'Today's Smokes 10/20/09'

Mmmm, I'm going to let my Santa's cigars sit a little while longer before diving into them. In the meanwhile, I have some sweet Gurkhas to enjoy, courtesy of my bro, MMK. Blue Steel to be burning this evening.

I hope he didn't mistakenly send me the PIF instead of the Santa bomb.

Welcome to the site, Tony. I like Tatuaje as well, and just enjoyed a Havana VI robusto yesterday at the shop.

Words of Wisdom

A local UCC pastor passed away, this past week, and while our ideas on theology, soteriology and christology differ, he was still a nice guy. Here are some of his own proverbs, which by most measures are fine, secular axioms:

Life is good. Be happy now. Let it go.

Be kind. Everyone you meet is carrying a heavy burden.

Things do not have to be perfect to be good.

The art of leadership is the art of knowing what to overlook.

One of the most time-consuming things in life is to have an enemy.… Continue

I thought I was over Baseball

I grew up a Red Sox fan, making regular pilgrimages to Fenway to see Luis Tiant, Carlton Fisk, Jim Rice, Dwight Evans, and company play the Great American Pastime. Be it in the bleachers near the Green Monster, behind home plate, or underneath the "Jimmy Fund" billboard, every seat was the best seat because I was at Fenway.

I moved to Philadelphia later, and went to Veterans Stadium to see the Phillies play. While they weren't the cherished Red Sox, it was still a good game to watch. Mike Schmi… Continue

Philosophizin'

I'm sitting here, enjoying a fine cigar, just thinking out loud:

As much as they can try to make them the same, no two hand-rolled cigars will ever be EXACTLY alike. There will always be subtle variations in the fillers, wrappers and construction, even in the best cigars. Each cigar should be both enjoyed and judged as if it were a unique individual.

Reviews are a funny thing. If a cigar tastes good or bad to an individual is really secondary for me. What I'm tuning in for is overall quality;… Continue
