5/$1 + 600% shipping Slippery Rock special lit in the pool.  Mixed cooler of beers for the afternoon.   Been cleaning out the fuk'n garage and going through old papers of my deceased parents which is slow work.
Going though my parents stuff was hard for me to do.  I ran across a document with my fathers signature on it, and I hadn't seen his signature for 35 years. Just a little melancholy...
Know what you mean he died 11 years ago next month and just now doing it and now only because we plan to sell our house in the spring and got to get the mess cleared out.  Ran across his original pilots licence issued in 1943, kind of like your signature.  Learned that he, was, a pilot for Western Union for a short while in the 40's which he never mentioned.   
That is fricken cool!

Howdy Ken.  Long chain of aviator my father, brother, myself and my son are all pilots.   Only sad part is my father did not know my son is.

Drive-by howdy, all.  GH's Azteca Fuerte and AJ's (?) Signature Collection were utterly forgettable.  Now on a much better Rosalones.  Perfect draw and burn with good output but not as much flavor or strength as Antano.  Still a Joya, though.  Have good one, everybody.

GR Special and coffee:
The GR Specials Black Label Gran Robusto is 6x54 and was blended by Guillermo Rico to remind himself of the the cigars that made in Cuba long ago. This blend combines Nicaraguan and Mexican filler tobaccos with a Honduran binder leaf. The wrapper is a Nicaraguan grown Corojo. The blend has a mellow wonderful taste with hints of almonds and cedar. It is a full bodied blend.medium bodied.

Gran Habano Azteca are good. The Fuerte are not. The latter is a CI exclusive. Surprise, surprise!

Hell of a 1-Day deal on Nica Libres at CI if you can handle 6x60's.   15/$35 with FREESH48 FS.

Not my favorite size but I don't mind big cigars at all so jumped right on that one.  Nica Libres require several months rest to be good though and I know you are not a fan of aging.
