Littlefish is gone aready?.....sheesh!

I mentioned the possibility of herfing next week and he got all nervous, started making excuses and bailed.

We'll see about that...

We could always include Flip, he might get off his ass to herf.  It's not like its a big commitment like CF...

So George, it seems the issue with the bleeding text had more to do with it being one long word.  Probably would have worked fine if you split it at, "KnowWhatIMean".  Basing it on Flip's text.

I'm usually used as a bad example i.e. there goes Flip, smoking them Gurks again, nice to do something right, once in a while like the following:JAMES McNEILL WHISTLER:
Yes, thank you. Right, Your Majesty is like a stream of bat's piss.
(gasps)
THE PRINCE OF WALES:
What?
JAMES McNEILL WHISTLER:
It was one of Wilde's.
OSCAR WILDE:
It sodding was not! It was Shaw!
THE PRINCE OF WALES:
Well, Mr. Shaw?
GEORGE BERNARD SHAW:
I, um, I, ah, I merely meant, Your Majesty, that, ah, you shine out like a shaft of gold when all around is dark.
THE PRINCE OF WALES:
Oh, ho-ho, very good

lol Nothing like some culture. Might have to smoke me a ghurka tonight. There are certainly some good ones.

  Yes there are, and there are a few stinkers as well....

Worst cigar I ever had was a gurk. Definitely had something wrong with it. It was just FOUL! Still I'm not a hater. Used to be grumpy about the fact that there were so many constantly changing blends. But hey, no blend lasts forever. Eventually ya gotta move on to stock from a different crop.

  I agree with you, my best and worst cigars were gurkha's

I see light at the end of the tunnel. Gonna pretend it's Jersey time and run screaming from here in just a bit. I see a bison steak an adult beverage and a good cigar in my near future.

Thats fine, but then you call it something else rather than trying to pass it off as an existing line.

I can agree with you on half of that statement...

Off to McDonalds for breakfast...when in a foreign country, I always try to hit MickyD's to see what odd items have been added to the menu. Illusione Rothchildes for my walk there...

[/quote]My point exactly. Gurkha always has a bunch of new lines rotating through. Other established brands have to re-blend and try to keep the same characteristics. Also I am inclined to blame mommy and daddy, heh I can actually say it Meier and Dutch, who always swoop in and resurrect brands and blends and pretend nothing has changed then sell 'em at CI and the sis. Plenty of gurks are actually Meier & Dutch cigars and not real Gurkhas. Haven't been for some years. And there is no comparison in quality and flavor between the  M&D knockoffs and the real deal.

I'm out of here, hello nice quiet cigar on the deck, think if I stop by the florist(OK supermarket) for roses, the warden can be convinced they were on the table yesterday for our 20th anniversary?  Wife and daughter will be at dress rehearsal for Dance recital. yeah, that's the ticket. She got home yesterday, around 11pm, mad that my car was in the driveway, So I could convince her she missed them last night this morning and again when she got home around 2pm....  Hey wait spent 85 dollars for a bunch of salumeria items yesterday, better that roses, all her favorites too. Cost more than 3 dozen supermarket roses.

Getting ahead of the job Dean? June isn't usually a heating month, though it is can get cool.  Right, nice cigar by the fire, what was I thinking...

Good on you, sir.  Now if we could just get Joe to open that whiskey.  Work sucks, and I'm stuck here for three more hours.
