Sly, are you close to DC? We may be going out in August.
Yes, I'm in Northern Virginia (NoVA) suburbs.  It would be great to get together.
Ask Mark and Tony if they have enjoyed their NoVA herfs.

Is it official even though we never signed a parchment?

Afternoon boys.  Winding down the day, though still plenty of work to be doing.  Ever just look at a stack of stuff and feel like saying F'k it, think I'll just smoke a cigar and banter?

Never mind, stupid question.
/// You didn't mention a cold adult beverage, but I'm sure you were thinking it.

Indeed.  I really ought to put a six pack in the refrigerator here at work.
Have you had the Shiner Ruby xyz ?  It looks good, but I wonder what you guys think of it.

Just had a 10# rhubarb harvest. Made the neighbor happy.
My dad, raised 40 miles from you, just loved rhubarb pie.
He would have been 100 years old this summer.
Got to do something special to celebrate.

Hope to bring home some custom rolls from Habanos in late July. The guy I'm going to see has a good reputation. If I don't like them, it will be my fault.

Wynwood Coneja fresh roll, it's just a solid smoke. Taste profile unlike most cigars I've had. Still can't put my finger on it, it's just good. Full body but refined and smooth. Oak with just a hint of pepper spice and an oil slick finish.
That sounds pretty good, Oy.


They're really not bad smokes.  Very much medium body, full flavor.  They had an insane MSRP, though the closeout price of $4/ea was pretty solid.
will, I find them to be full full.

They just don't have that aggressive, heavy, palate battering type flavor that I use for full.  Maybe in the last third?  That's using the modern scale, though, where we have all these cigars with 75-100% ligero fillers that really are over the top. 

In a traditional sense, yes, the Wynwood is full. 

Doesn't mean it isn't a very good cigar.  Not a $15 cigar, or whatever it was their full price was.  But one of the best that Eiroa has put out.

Afternoon all.  V and a Southern Pecan to drink today just back home from Corpus Christi after 2 days there.
/// Welcome back, TR/N8ive.  Lookes like a lot of guys have achieved Junior Status are very proud of it.  We have a ways to go.  I don't get paid to sit at a desk with the freedom to peruse the internet and post on the Cigar Banter.  Would be nice.

Our mother's did not raise us to just be a couple of post whores.  Afternoon sir hope you are doing well.
Thank you, you, too.  Let us rise with dignity through the ranks.
Don't want to get the bends by rising too fast, then you start acting and talking crazy.
Besides, I've passed twenty-one, so now I can drink legally tonight.  My work is done for today.
The aroma of dinner is hitting my nose, baked potatoes and chicken breasts covered in Caribbean sauce.
Hope to get a good cigar in tonight with some $2 Rock Bottom beers on the patio.  Pretty hot here and no A/C
in rented condo.  Was shopping earlier for fans.  Can't put in a window A/C since it's on the first floor, no balcony, no patio, just right next to building front door.  Landlady coming back June 19-20 for 2-3 weeks and will get new A/C unit installed then ... Good For Her!

And Ryan!  If Oy plans it right, I may join you.  I miss my DC area BOTL.
