Wasn't impressed with the daily deals at cigar.com either.-----AFoC------The wrapper on my BH Robusto let loose at the 2" mark.  Think the 90% RH on the porch might have had something to do with it?  Glad you got home safe and sound, Antnee.

Speaking of HD shirts. I have a Harley Davidson Baghdad, Iraq T-shirt, and an Jones H-D, Hot Springs, Arkansas T-shirt.

Cool!  Yadi brought me back H-D T shirts from Kosovo, Iraq, and Afganistan.  When she re-upped, they promised her she'd never be deployed to a combat zone again.  She did 2 deployments in Kosovo, 3 in Iraq, and 2 in Afganistan.  That's more than enough.

That is above and beyond. And appreciate, and respect her love of Country, and service to it! Thank her for me.

There will be a bunch of people dragging this morning as they are heading into work, since I had to work the entire holiday weekend I won't be feeling to sorry for them though.
