Famous Nic 3000 and Sparkling Water here on the patio. /// Just getting ready to eat dinner, thought I'd check in and Dave, your post caught my eye.I used to get the Famous N3KGR (Gran Robustos) on a regular basis, when I had to move I stored my stash, so I haven't had one in a good while. How is it? If I remember, there were comments saying that one batch to another might be different. Sometimes they would be fantastic, then they'd sell out, and then the next batch may not be as good. But when they were good, they were good. Almost an oval shape, or soft box press. Fred used to like them also. Never could find out who made them.They vary some but I have never had any bad ones. Trick is they have to age at least 6 months and even much better in a year. This one is 6 months and pretty damn good for a $1.95 cigar good burn but draw is a bit tight. I try to buy some every year so I keep some well aged ones on hand. Got a few left from over 4 years ago and they are extremely good. No idea myself who makes them.

Put it out of its misery! You can always buy another.2) A good enough occasion will never come. Smoke it and realize that the cigar makes the occasion, not the other way around. -----jwacky-----Not necessarily. Every Saturday night is a special occasion, (some more special than others) and a few of us smoke our best stuff together on Saturday nights. Well, as with anything, there are exceptions. What I really meant was that sometimes the cigar makes the occasion and not the other way around.Joe, I agree 100%! Me and the dog are really enjoying this cigar! He jumped in my lap, because the thunder is scaring him. So, second hand smoke for him! Hey Ken, I"m trying to picture this. Is the dog a Newfoundland or a shi-tzu?

You work hard, you should be able to relax.I will spend the family & Dylan time in the morning. I seem to do this every year because it's what I want to do. I wish they wouldn't have the US open & Father's Day on the same day every year. I do have the warden approval though. I did make sure we did what she wanted to do on Mother's Day.
Yummy. Who was it who used to say yummo? And was threatened to be stripped of his man-card? I almost said it, and you can take my man card over my dead body!
