I know it, brother.  He was ill for a while now but took a sudden turn for the worse, last week.  Just glad my kids all got to meet him and remember him well.

Thanks Johnny.  My mom is doing pretty bad with her Alzheimer's so we've decided to not even tell her.  They had a great run for 56 years.

That's good, Tony, that they got to meet and get to know each other.  Don't worry about us ... You get ready & get as much rest/sleep as you can, before making the journey home. Raz said he could probably help you run the site with a little information. Or maybe it was Cannonfodder/Dave.  ... I'm going to bed, so I can be sane tomorrow.  Night all.  Tony, i'll remember your father at Mass.

Tony, My father died in 2004, my mother too. Mom had Alzheimer's, and dad would see her for the years she had it, us too. He died, and she lived only 3 months. We think she died because she missed seeing him. He would go to the nursing home every day, and when he stopped going after his death she stopped eating. She did not know us, but she knew he was not there everyday. They tried feeding her IV, but she still got skinny and would not take nutrients. She died 3 months after he did.

Bret, losing a parent is life changing. It will be something you don't get over. Not even 10 years later. And I lost both parents the same year, but that is not what I want to say: enjoy your vacation! We live only so long, so enjoy!

Never seen a one of them, other than 24 I could not tell you the last broadcast tv series I watched but been watching Jack since year 1.  I mostly watch the "reality" shows finding them to be light entertainment.

My heart is with Tony today. All of us that have lost a father know the pain it brings. A blessing was that your children were able to know their grandfather. He will live in your story's and memory's. As I sit here with my coffee and cigar, I think how the smoke is like life. We take it in and it gives us joy, flavors, spice, peace and at times a bitter note. When we let the smoke out, it goes back to the earth, leaving us memory's and the serenity of the experience. Here's to Giuseppe Pepino Scarpa, the man with the coolest name I ever heard. Rest in Peace.

Thanks, Shaun.  I tried to copy the whole article using my phone. It's serious, but funny.  I wonder if the benefit comes with your dog or if you live on a farm, being around your cattle. I guess as long as it's hydrogen sulfide.

HERF Update #257


Box 1 is ordered.  KC, Jeff, TD, Tony and myself coordinating.

Box 2 is ordered.  Fred-bob, Oy-dave, CB, Raz and GK coordinating. 


Story so far on box 3:   

Sly wants 2 smokes, one for him an done for a buddy.  Dogdays wants in, too.  Raz has offered to coordinate box 3.  GK has also informed me that he bought a 2nd box.  I don't know if that second box is for his own stash or if he was interested in coordinating box 3, too.  I guess that will get figured out today.   

Either way, we're at 3 of 5 for box 3.   


Remember to PM me if you're joining.  I might or might not catch your post if I'm scrolling through a couple hundred of them.

Indeed it is.  Had a 2014 Stone Russian Imperial Stout over the weekend.  Pretty damn good.  Dry, roasted flavors.  I probably would've guessed it was a coffee beer if I'd had it blind, although it's not billed as a coffee stout.  11% ABV, too, so I felt it pretty good.  Your beers should arrive tomorrow, according to tracking.

Morning, all.  Boss is back in the office for the first time since last Tuesday... sheesh.
Morning Joe, that's a fine slap in the bean-bag!

Indeed it is.  Had a 2014 Stone Russian Imperial Stout over the weekend.  Pretty damn good.  Dry, roasted flavors.  I probably would've guessed it was a coffee beer if I'd had it blind, although it's not billed as a coffee stout.  11% ABV, too, so I felt it pretty good.  Your beers should arrive tomorrow, according to tracking.
I had a Founder's Imperial Stout at Dave's house that was exceptional, not flavored but didn't need it. Haven't been able to find it yet

Ha, I did like that one.  There's a tasting tonight but not sure I'll make it out or not.  Price went up since it's a food/whiskey pairing and I'm not particularly interested in the whiskeys being offered.  Might just swing by to say high to some people and order something else from the bar.

Hey Joe, you were posting the other day about how you're not used to the higher abv craft scene, right?

The brewery down the street from me, Carton Brewing, has a session IPA.  4.2%, solid bitterness/flavor/aroma, nice and light. They also have a handful of other session styles, including a Milk stout and a salted veggie/fruit ale.  And probably a few others, but I haven't tried them all yet.

Those lower ABV beers are just wasted calories.  I meant more along the lines of needing to realize that a six pack of 9% ABV beer is more like a 12-pack of 'standard' beer.

I usually bottle in quarts.  Because small amounts of beer aren't worth the effort to open.  That makes a 6 pack something like 17 beers...but then the abv is usually in the 6-7 range.  So 34 beers, give or take.

I usually don't brew so high because of the increased time needed for aging and increased chances of the fermentation getting stuck/repitch/infected, etc.  I have done a few high gravity Belgians that ended up around there that were great, though.

Not sure fetish is the right word, but I'm not gonna argue with an expert on the subject. (http://img837.imageshack.us/img837/2738/9nx.gif)
See what I'm sayin'? You can't post without one of those fucking things attached, now piss-off, Q-bert!

Big fuckin' deal.

Great, now I can't tell if you're mad or sarcastic...

Ha! See?

Anyway, not mad. Scott just trying to keep the spirit of 'Tuesday', but I'm just not feeling it today.
Why not?  Has the holiday become too commercial for you?
Before you know it, we'll be starting bitching Tuesday on Monday afternoon.
Or have Black Wednesdays?
Again with the racism.
Just trying to give back

Hey Joe, you were posting the other day about how you're not used to the higher abv craft scene, right?

The brewery down the street from me, Carton Brewing, has a session IPA.  4.2%, solid bitterness/flavor/aroma, nice and light. They also have a handful of other session styles, including a Milk stout and a salted veggie/fruit ale.  And probably a few others, but I haven't tried them all yet.
Will, we weren't talking about beers with an abv THAT high, geez. Do you think we're drunks?

You act like that's a bad thing.  And you can't be a drunk from drinking beer.  Just an enthusiast.
Just bustin' Tuesday balls Will, I enjoy stouts/beers with 9-11% abv. Plenty of great stuff out there right now

I usually don't brew so high because of the increased time needed for aging and increased chances of the fermentation getting stuck/repitch/infected, etc.  I have done a few high gravity Belgians that ended up around there that were great, though.

My wife brews/makes her own kombucha (sp??) which is kinda interesting to watch.  Somewhat similar to brewing beer since it involves fermentation and whatnot.  I'm intrigued by beer brewing but know that I'll get sucked in.

Indeed, ordered from CAYP late July, 2012, which means the open box is from before that, even.  Went crazy on that site for a while there.  I haven't noticed a TON of change in just the couple of years outside of what tends to happen with the flavors being a little more blended together, a little milder overall, etc.  Which I like.

Keeps it fresher, longer, dontcha know.  I much prefer whiskey with screw tops, even though I kinda like that 'pop' from pulling out the cork.  Keeps more air out, which is good when it's a bottle of something I sip from only on very rare occasions.

BTW, I had a Tat Black PL on Friday night that was fantastic. Been fixated on the CGs but damn they're still great
Agreed...the CGs are amazing, but the PLs still hold their own very well.  Can't wait to sit some down for a year or 2!

It's nice knowing that once you smoke through the CGs, the petite lanceros will always be there to fall back on.
Do you guys smoke?  I just hoard... ;)  But agreed, I need to get a jar of PLs to just bury and age, just waiting for next spring or so.

I could probably send you a couple 'aged' PLs to try.  I have one box open (though almost empty) and another still closed.  I THINK it's from sometime in 2012 but I'd have to check.
No worries bud, appreciate the offer tho.  I bought 10 last week from Famous, 10/$66 or so

Ha! See?

Anyway, not mad. Scott just trying to keep the spirit of 'Tuesday', but I'm just not feeling it today.
Why not?  Has the holiday become too commercial for you?
The next thing you know, Hallmark will have a greeting card for it.

Not Hallmark, but...

Hey Joe, you were posting the other day about how you're not used to the higher abv craft scene, right?

The brewery down the street from me, Carton Brewing, has a session IPA.  4.2%, solid bitterness/flavor/aroma, nice and light. They also have a handful of other session styles, including a Milk stout and a salted veggie/fruit ale.  And probably a few others, but I haven't tried them all yet.
Will, we weren't talking about beers with an abv THAT high, geez. Do you think we're drunks?

You act like that's a bad thing.  And you can't be a drunk from drinking beer.  Just an enthusiast.
Just bustin' Tuesday balls Will, I enjoy stouts/beers with 9-11% abv. Plenty of great stuff out there right now

I usually don't brew so high because of the increased time needed for aging and increased chances of the fermentation getting stuck/repitch/infected, etc.  I have done a few high gravity Belgians that ended up around there that were great, though.

My wife brews/makes her own kombucha (sp??) which is kinda interesting to watch.  Somewhat similar to brewing beer since it involves fermentation and whatnot.  I'm intrigued by beer brewing but know that I'll get sucked in.
Uh-Oh!

Nope, won't go there.  Involves too much time/energy.  Opening a bottle is about as much energy as I'm willing to put in to my boozing.  I don't even like having to find a bottle opener.  Why can't everyone just use twist tops?
More and more wines are going to screw tops
Blasphemy!
What are you worried about? The boxes will always have the "easy pour" spouts
Wine in a box, what am I made of money?

Hey Joe, you were posting the other day about how you're not used to the higher abv craft scene, right?

The brewery down the street from me, Carton Brewing, has a session IPA.  4.2%, solid bitterness/flavor/aroma, nice and light. They also have a handful of other session styles, including a Milk stout and a salted veggie/fruit ale.  And probably a few others, but I haven't tried them all yet.
Will, we weren't talking about beers with an abv THAT high, geez. Do you think we're drunks?

You act like that's a bad thing.  And you can't be a drunk from drinking beer.  Just an enthusiast.
Just bustin' Tuesday balls Will, I enjoy stouts/beers with 9-11% abv. Plenty of great stuff out there right now

I usually don't brew so high because of the increased time needed for aging and increased chances of the fermentation getting stuck/repitch/infected, etc.  I have done a few high gravity Belgians that ended up around there that were great, though.

My wife brews/makes her own kombucha (sp??) which is kinda interesting to watch.  Somewhat similar to brewing beer since it involves fermentation and whatnot.  I'm intrigued by beer brewing but know that I'll get sucked in.
While brewing your own can be fun, it is cheaper with infinely more choices when you just buy.

Indeed.  Why spend all that time making a shitty coffee peanut butter chocolate cream stout when I can just go buy one?  No offense to the home brewer in attendance, I'm sure the stuff can be quite good after some practice.   Surprised nobody has tried a bourbon finished beer.  Make a stout, add bourbon.  ABV would be through the roof!
My dad made an EPIC Bourbon Barrel Porter...had Makers Mark in it, around 12%...was amazing!

Eclipse makes a MM barrel finished beer.  I'm talking straight up bourbon, though.  So 45% (give or take) from the bourbon, plus 10% from the stout... mmmm... that'd make for a short but fun night.
Ohh shit, ok, nm, i'll gfm, etc, etc, etc  8)

So, about 5 a piece... that's what I was figuring for. Usually try to get the RegV @ 4 if possible. CI deal last time out. Think it came with a 10OFF GC too, so even less. =D

No kidding.  I was at Liberty Tobacco last week, but their inventory was lacking.  They're definitely cheaper than Churchills, but Churchills inventory is quickly surpassing them.

Dusty, where'd you get your Melanios?
From the mash last week. Used a $40 off over $200 and got 40 robustos for $199.84. Naturals.
Split with a friend of mine.

I have no problem spending $5 for a Melanio Rob. Like 'em better than the #4's actually.

I thought you were implying that you wanted to buy ISKOWs off a BOTL.  iHavanas isn't "local" in the physical sense.  I've had plenty of luck with them... with a Visa card.

I also agree.  They've had my back more than once when a buyer tried to scam me. Incredibly safe, lots of protection on top of what you already get from your bank.

My main wish is that they weren't rolled so damn tight.  I really don't care for firm draws.  Sure, the draw poker helps somewhat with that but still... be nice to just grab one, cut it, light it, and smoke it.

we could just split the Por $263 and the Hoyo $119 = $382 or $191 each. If you order I'd pay shipping to me and you keep the extra Hoyo. Do you have a VISA? I'd also be fine if you want the 25/RG and not the 15/Hoyo or do you have another cigar your looking to get?

The more orders I place, the larger the chance of something going wrong increases.  Law of averages and such.  Do you really want to tempt the Murphy's Law and O'Brien's Law (which states that Murphy was an optimist)?

Watching the game, I've been sipping Gran Centenario & smoking a Pinolero Maduro torp.  The tequila is great neat.  The PM torp has been kinda bitter.  Not enjoying it, more enduring it hoping for a turn to the better which never came.  Prefer the naturals.  Getting ready to close here, so I'll have to move on.  See you all later.

Good. Therapist says I have full range of motion in my neck already. Have not work the neck brace for a couple weeks now and down to one or two pain pills a day. The wife and daughter had appointments most of the day today so right after they left I grabbed my match rifle and went to the range for 2 hours. Only shot 100 rounds but my head did not fall off so I take that as a good sign. Got back, cleaned the rifle and put everything away and they never new. Otherwise I would never hear the end of it.

Still a little week in my left arm and have no feeling in 2 fingers but that is from the crushed nerves. That will take 8-12 months to heal. Nerves grow real slow.

HERF update 234 235


Another box of Diademas filled.


Boxes 1-3 are ordered and all slots filled. 

     Box 1 is KC, Jeff, TD, Tony, and myself, coordinated by me.

Boxes 2 and 3 are coordinated by GK.

     Box 2 is Fredbob, Oyam, CB, Raz, and GK.
     Box 3 is Dogdays and 4 cigars to Sly & Co. (handled locally on his end). 

So that means we need 5 more and someone to order another box for a 4th box in the herf. 

I figure most everyone has seen this by now and anyone who was interested has responded, so chances of a 4th box might be pretty slim.  We'll see how it goes, though.

Howdy Dave! Up late because I slept until noon.  Convinced there is a ghost in our house now.  Inherited an 1776 family heirloom secretary desk.  Ever since it entered my house Memorial Day last year, we have experienced weird things.  Last night? White light was coming through the door jams in the office where it is.  Thought it was morning sun.  Got up, took a piss, came back out and no light.  Opened the door, turned light on.....nothing out of the ordinary. Computer was off, blinds closed, lamp was unplugged.  It was 3:30am.  About 3 hours of sleep last night, so 6am to noon gave me about 9 hours of broken sleep.  WTF.  How you doing?

Morning! Really? Think those are better than the current Decades IMO.  I have the original PA wrapper Decades (the Edicion Especial newer PA wrapper that also is out), Sumatra and then Habano wrappers on the Decade didn't do it any justice.

When the wife says "someone breathed into my ear" in broad daylight in the office......TWICE.....skeptics become believers! Also, heard the floor creek just outside the office in this one spot it only creeks upstairs a few months ago.  Won't creek unless someone steps on it.  And I was the only person in the house and was downstairs.  I am certainly a believer now.  Hopefully good family checking in on us.

Would like to take them off your hands, but aging the remaining of my box as they needed a little time.  Maybe 10 or so left.  Don't like the newer versions for the price.  Renaissance is a good alternative, enjoyed those.

Thanks Ken. We got her into a full rehab facility yesterday so they can teach her to walk, talk and use her arms and hands again. Heart damage is pretty bad and no good news at all about that though. Her spirits are ok which is the main thing.

Revisited the Spectre last night. Still think it's an OK cigar and a nice change of pace, but not something I could stomach all the time. I think it's much better than the Leccia Black, at least when it comes to the latakia/smoked tobacco flavors, but not on the same level as the MUWAT Kentucky Fire Cured, which IMO is the best showcase of the latakia.

Did you see that the CLE warehouse in Miami is the latest one to get broken in to?  Approx $800,000 worth of inventory
Gurkha got broken into also, they got $2.5 MIL worth of product. Good news is it was calculated as LIST price so they only really lost $10K

I'm just not a fan of Illusione, they've never done anything for me.  Like the Epernays and the Rothchildes but everything else, no thanks.  Including the MK Ultra. Seems that I'm somewhat alone with the dislike of Illusione though. 

I'd definitely go with the EPCs between those two.

Scott - your beers are out out for delivery!  Hopefully the bottles are still in one piece.  I'm most curious to hear your thoughts on the Blue Ridge Coffee stout.  People don't really talk about Coronado Brewing company out here but I really like that particular beer despite the relatively low ABV.  It was the first coffee beer I tried and I think it stands up well compared to every one I've tried since.

Thanks Joe. I tried like hell to find some Founder's Imperial Stout to send but came up empty, I'll ship 2-day tomorrow. I found out on their website that it's not seasonal but also not year-round. Stouts will be back in a few months. I hope you like their Breakfast Stout I'm sending

No rush.  If you ship two day tomorrow USPS they'll just sit in the outdoor mail box at work until Saturday... so I can give you my home address or just wait another day, if you don't mind.  Let me know, either way is fine by me.

Lol, same here. Thankful to have a job where I really just work to deadlines and once they're met, that's it. Got two screens up. And like most "billable hour" type jobs (though we only bill the clients that way, I'm salary), the work we bill doesn't take nearly as long to do as we claim it does.

I agree with you on both counts....Illusione is better, but similar to Viaje....lots of hype, a lot of average flavors and some real winners....oh, and premium pricing.

At the place: Trying to decide on pulling the trigger between EPC Card Mad 54 (Toro) @ $78.27/box of (20) OR Illusione mkultra (Corona) @ $102.87/box of (25). Love the EPCs, never had this Illusione

I'm just not a fan of Illusione, they've never done anything for me.  Like the Epernays and the Rothchildes but everything else, no thanks.  Including the MK Ultra. Seems that I'm somewhat alone with the dislike of Illusione though. 

I'd definitely go with the EPCs between those two.
I agree with you on both counts....Illusione is better, but similar to Viaje....lots of hype, a lot of average flavors and some real winners....oh, and premium pricing.
Have you smoked this particular one? Seems it's stronger than others

That's what I use, too.  It's essentially the same stuff.  When dry, it'll bring rh down to 65%.  Add a bit of water to it and watch relative humidity creep up!  And if you screw it all up, it's only $14 or so for 8lbs of it, so who cares?  Get past the fact that it's "kitty litter" and focus on what's actually in the packaging.  But hey, if you don't like that I'll send you an 8lb bucket of humidity beads for $40.

Heartfelt has nice little racket going.

Added bonus to the kitty litter:  you can pee in it while picking out a cigar to smoke.

That's what I use, too.  It's essentially the same stuff.  When dry, it'll bring rh down to 65%.  Add a bit of water to it and watch relative humidity creep up!  And if you screw it all up, it's only $14 or so for 8lbs of it, so who cares?  Get past the fact that it's "kitty litter" and focus on what's actually in the packaging.  But hey, if you don't like that I'll send you an 8lb bucket of humidity beads for $40.

Heartfelt has nice little racket going.

Added bonus to the kitty litter:  you can pee in it while picking out a cigar to smoke.
Agreed...beads are beads IMO

I'll sell you some... BOTL discount, 8lb bucket for $30.
I get em from Mikey when he orders from Quality Importers, half 1/2 is like $3-5 or so...thanks tho ;)

Our relative humidity is fairly stable out here from one season to the next and really I just have a large electronic humidifier in the cabinet.  It runs some in the winters, hardly at all in the summers.

Thanks for the recaps, Steve.

Sure. Was bored and was seeing if I could figure out a little of Chips magic. At least he won't have so many to fill in later.
Corrections... that's another issue.
Lot nicer on this banter, I remember fuggin it up more than a few times on the old one :)

Everything is nicer on this banter.

I don't know what I did there, but thanks?

What's the deal with all these cigar places being burglarized all of a sudden? Don't any of these places have security?
I Know, I read somebody actually stole cigars from a Gurkha warehouse.
think they were lost?  :D  Hello boys...
We might need you to come down to the station and give an official statement as to your whereabouts during the incident.

Good afternoon Flip!
Officer, I have not been in the Miami area in over a year, it wasn't me.
a likely story we are keeping a eye on you !
yeah, that's why my last order through the devil was mostly AJ's stuff, it's that half a tractor trailer of hansotia's stuff, that I didn't need to get any more of.
Ok that was Dam good ,  I really LOL ! .
Yeah, we don't deal in the small "pallet sale" quantities....

Hey, Flip... what's the going rate on these? 8-10? I've been told these are the must try Gurk... never said they were smart.  ;)

they are a B&M only cigar usually, I've seen them around $14, only had one in a trade from LTG, me like a lot.
realize unless you are buy something else, that single will cost you an additional Shipping charges are $3.95 for the first unit.
If you already bought something else, and you are in shipping savings, only another quarter.

While vitola Quintero?  And did they have an age stamp? 

My 1 year old londres extra are a solid $2 cigar.  Pretty consistent across the first 20 I've smoked, only 1 gave me any real issue (refusing to burn around the midway point).  Otherwise grassy/cedar/slightly citrusy/light sweet tobacco that grows into a fairly rich cigar.  Sure, it isn't a tier 1 smoke, but $2 every day Cuban?  It works.

While vitola Quintero?  And did they have an age stamp? 

My 1 year old londres extra are a solid $2 cigar.  Pretty consistent across the first 20 I've smoked, only 1 gave me any real issue (refusing to burn around the midway point).  Otherwise grassy/cedar/slightly citrusy/light sweet tobacco that grows into a fairly rich cigar.  Sure, it isn't a tier 1 smoke, but $2 every day Cuban?  It works.
i was happy with it. First few puffs were bitter and I thought shit! But it turned around and was well worth the money and more.

Finally got some info on the Torano Hogsheads. Not even the Torano web site takes credit for this cigar and there is zero information available except on the CI Conglomerate online store sites.
The cigar is extremely rustic. Full of wrinkles, lumps and bumps. Seams are extremely sloppy. The veins look like tree trunks. The cap is sloppy. Lots of soft spots. In other words, your typical Torano cigar. King of the $6.50 cigar.
The wrapper is the color of dog shit with corn still in it. But oily.
I clip the cap and find aromas of vinegar-soaked vagina, wet pit bull balls, liver sausage, and 2 week old Torano shit. Here are the flavors: Sweetness, cocoa, waning spice, a touch of creaminess, lemon citrus, and the taste you imagine when you watch your dog lick his own balls. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we men could lick our own balls? Think of all the saved marriages.

I had a knock-down-drag-out on another forum he monitors with their owner about trying to pull stuff a few years ago.  Then it was posting exceptionally good prices on Mash things but leaving off free shipping on those items hoping it would go unnoticed.  He is a genuine dipstick i only buy from them if a super deal which is rare.  Think I bought 1 time this year.

They are definitely good but the fun of watching them live is you realize they hit terrible shots too that TV does not show - thus they are human. Difference is they recover better than others after a terrible shot where as we usually hit another terrible shot.  They get pissed off and cuss just like us too.

Exactly. I saw Ernie Els about 140yds out with a tree in his line, couldn't go over it or draw around it because there wasn't enough room. He hit a low shot under the tree that rose up after it cleared the tree and landed 8ft from the hole and stuck there, no idea how he did that. The gallery was talking about how the hell he was going to get the ball anywhere close and he made it look like a joke

My neighbor across the street, likes to give his wife a little toot on his car horn every morning before heading to work.  So every week day at 5:50am for the past 10 years or so, I get to wake up to," beep, beep ----- beep beep beep--- beep, beep...!"
Does he drive a Plymouth Roadrunner (real man) or a VW Bug (pussy)?
I believe it's an Altima...  I just don't know what people are thinking....?

Gotta check back in with the Open Championship, love that tournament
Is one of the better ones but Masters is my favorite.
Totally agree but there's something about the British I really like. I love getting up early and watching it
I enjoy it because the courses look so easy and then whip their asses.  Most U.S. Tour  Courses are too easy for tour players these days and are about nothing but long driving.  Note I said Most not All!
These guys are so good though. I used to go to the Heritage in Hilton Head for years and to see the shots these guys pull off in person with wind conditions, tiny greens, narrow fairways is incredible
They are definitely good but the fun of watching them live is you realize they hit terrible shots too that TV does not show - thus they are human. Difference is they recover better than others after a terrible shot where as we usually hit another terrible shot.  They get pissed off and cuss just like us too. My son played with Dustin Johnson in High School.
That's sweet!  I would always go to the Byron Nelson, love that tournament...best part was them carrying Lord Byron down 18 to watch the final group on Sunday.  Agreed with most things said, when the conditions are nice, that's not when you see them shine...it's when it windy and the greens are slick and their ability to recover that is the difference.
Most impressive to me is their ability to shape shots either way and just how damn hard they hit a driver.  Having seen Dustin hit some 350+ off the tee in high school was damn amazing.  It is like an explosion when the club meets the ball.
Agreed, the sound is so different too!

Honestly I don't see much difference other than the additional children and younger overall  but some of that is hocus-pocus most are teenagers. it has been going on for ages just nobody knew or seemed to care and now they are coming from much further south.  There is a helicopter overhead now, probably news there are more of them than anything else.

Well, 2 boxes of cigars arrive today, but that's nothing new.  Got into grad school on Tuesday, so that was a nice monkey to get off my back...now time to study for the GMAT and get registered for classes on Monday!  How are you?
If you were already accepted into school, why do you need a GMAT?  Or does it take going to grad school to figure that out?

The school I chose doesn't require it upon acceptance, but I have to take it before semester 3 finishes(4 or 5 semesters total-based on prereq status and concentration).  If I take it and get X, then I get to skip 3 prerequisites, but if I take it and dont get X I have to take the prereqs...or I can not take it and take the prereqs.

Good morning Guy's , I am looking for some Diplomaticos No 4 , any one know where to look ? .
I haven't seen the #4's or #5's in stock anywhere in years. Get the Monte #4's, Diplomaticos is a sister company/label
monti #4 $158, not bad
post a price and joe mercilessly appears with a lower one.

$10 cheaper at iHav.  I prefer them to the #2.

Heck, $132 for a 5x5 box at CoH.
Stop posting lower prices Joe....oy wants to pay the higher price.

I'll just keep lower prices and discount codes to myself!  Want that Tampa Humidor code, FB?  Too bad.

Very Nice Shaun ! .

Nice... maybe I'll smoke a LAdC EE tonight, haven't had one in forever.
They just suit me right, I am one of the few guys who likes them more than the Mi Amor(but the Mi Amor aged is fucking fantastic).  The Mi Amor Reserva tho, wow...love that beauty, just a little spendy

Been so long since I've had either that I'm not even sure how I feel about them head-to-head.  Mi Amors are nice but not something I've ever stocked up on in any sort of quantity.  Haven't had the Mi Amor Reserva.

I highly recommend trying it, the smaller sizes are really good.  But for $8/ea, they better be fucking amazing...hence why I don't have a box either.

Go big or go home... if you want to try to steal cigars, you can bid two dollars on a San Lotano, and & $20 on an Lost City Opus X 5 pack.  You will get out bid everyday.  only consistent $3 cigar is the gurkha, and even then you will get out bid for half of them.  my last haul the pinoleros were $4 and the mayimbes cost me $9 apiece.  San lotano the bull five pack $23(less the cost of 2 since they didn't know how many cigars were in a five pack!).

Tapatalk app, like Shaun said.  Or go to make a reply, scroll down to the attachments link, and it'll prompt you to take a photo or choose existing.  If the files are too large you'll have to adjust your phone settings when you take them, most likely.  I sometimes just email them to myself and select a small enough size when asked.  Then I open the email, download and save the 'new' photo, and I'm good.  But because it's a lengthy process that way I rarely bother.

yeah, their shipping accuracy leave a lot to be desired.  they offered to send the missing two, but since i won 5 mayimbe, and 4 assorted pinoleros, i had them refund the 9 or so bucks.  they even sent me somebody else's whole order once, but he ordered shittier cigars than me. they quickly shipped out my stuff, and sent me an rma for the stuff he ordered. my paperwork in the box, but his cigars and NASCAR flasks.  might have been a redneck  ;D

I Stop biding at cbid , because of Lori the whore .
Well, she is cheap and puts out for me ;)
Lmao , I hate even more now ! .
Bit of a strange blanket statement to throw out there Steve
Just trying to be funny , I don't know her , she mite be a very nice lady , I stop biding at cbid because I always get out bid  :)
Go big or go home... if you want to try to steal cigars, you can bid two dollars on a San Lotano, and & $20 on an Lost City Opus X 5 pack.  You will get out bid everyday.  only consistent $3 cigar is the gurkha, and even then you will get out bid for half of them.  my last haul the pinoleros were $4 and the mayimbes cost me $9 apiece.  San lotano the bull five pack $23(less the cost of 2 since they didn't know how many cigars were in a five pack!).
I hoped you called them, flip, and got a positive resolution.  I have had to on a rare occasion.  How do you like the Mayimbe?
yes i liked the mayimbe, have had the toro, and the churchill, this time i ordered 3 robustos, and a pair of churchills.  on the bidding, you can start low, but for something you want, make a reasonable max bid.  you win ties on max bid, and you don't have to go $2 or $3 more to win it back.

about 10 years ago, they wouldn't let the JR stores in Jersey sell the Opus XX, said they discounted them below a certain price.  you had to buy a $30 single malt scotch or in my case a good shot of cognac, and you got the cigar "free".  but they could not sell them in the store, only free with an expensive drink in the Whippany bar, in the store.

Five years ago: The Taliban posted a video of an American soldier who'd gone missing June 30, 2009 from his base in eastern Afghanistan and was later confirmed to have been captured; in the recording, the soldier (later identified as Pfc. Bowe Bergdahl) said he was "scared I won't be able to go home." Authorities in Tennessee arrested Jacob Shaffer in the deaths of six people, five of whom were found slain near Fayetteville; the sixth body was discovered in Huntsville, Alabama. (The victims included Shaffer's wife, her father, her brother and teenage son. Shaffer later admitted to all the killings and was sentenced to life in prison.)

Alrighty then
Morning Scott. I'm too busy right now, trying to not fall asleep at my desk. How's YOUR day going?
Don't patronize me, you selfish son of a bitch!

I'm good, you?
Other than being very tired, yes. I wasn't kidding, I'm literally fighting sleep here at my desk. Slow morning plus tired Dave equals fighting to keep my eyes open. Haha.
Sorry to hear that Dave, now grab another coffee and SACK-UP!

Damn, sorry to hear about the constant b/s Dave!  Reminds me of my mom, same shit;brain surgery, knees replaced, all sorts of shit...Dad, not 1 surgery I can remember.

Holy crap, I hear ya! Hope it gets straightened out soon. I can sympathize.
Oh yeah, and whats with the hospitals and their pre-surgery/admittance bull? Why can't ONE person call and get your info and distribute it to the depts. that need it? Instead of 6 different folks calling for the same info? I think Lori needs to put a fix on this shit.

stay strong. It's probably the pre-anesthesia exam with ECG. They just need to make sure she can tolerate the surgery. I hope all goes well.

Kinda makes you wish you could go to the wife store on the way home from work, pick a couple out for the weekend, and when you're done just get ready for some new ones.  And for the record and to protect myself, I'm sure wives everywhere wish the same thing.

You're probably right. I've pledged to stop drinking beer during the week, having to work a little TOO hard at the gym to keep up, haha.  Did have a Ballast Point Big Eye IPA last night, though.  So no beer drinking during the week starting next week.  Tonight, it's on. May swing by Stone for some more of the Bourbon Barrel Arrogant Bastard.  Something called "Woot Stout" came out that people are raving about (http://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/147/119966/?ba=Rollzroyce21) and I want to try some of that, too.

Hard to justify a beer run this afternoon with a whole box of beer arriving tomorrow... but I just may.  Got a message out to someone who I know purchased bottles of the wootstout at Stone but I'm more interested in a growler for the same price.  Their site doesn't say they're available for growler fills until next Wednesday but I swear I saw him post a picture of a growler of the stuff...

My favorite part is when the breweries make stuff available that isn't available to purchase by the bottle.  I tend to not buy the regular release stuff by the growler but that's mostly because my favorite breweries are relatively far away to make a trip for something I can buy at the liquor store down the street.  If Ballast Point was on the way home, I would.

Urban Dictionary says: "w00t" was originally an trunicated expression common among players of Dungeons and Dragons tabletop role-playing game for "Wow, loot!" Thus the term passed into the net-culture where it thrived in video game communities and lost its original meaning and is used simply as a term of excitement. Pretty gay no matter how you look at it

LMAO, I agree completely.  I fucking hate seeing people write crap like that. At least anyone older than, say, 12.  I like certain video games - Tiger Woods, old school stuff, Mario Kart, but I'll be damned if I'm gonna let some internet world take over my 'real' world.  Or say 'woot!' when I'm excited about something.

OK, and since I'm really not in touch with 'internet speak', how do you pronounce "woot".  Don't want to call and ask and sound like a moron for not knowing how to say it, even though you could argue that you ARE a moron for knowing how to say it.  Is it like it looks?  Woo-t, like you trying to "woo" someone?  Or is it more like "wut"...
Urban Dictionary says: "w00t" was originally an trunicated expression common among players of Dungeons and Dragons tabletop role-playing game for "Wow, loot!" Thus the term passed into the net-culture where it thrived in video game communities and lost its original meaning and is used simply as a term of excitement. Pretty gay no matter how you look at it

The first way is correct
LMAO, I agree completely.  I fucking hate seeing people write crap like that. At least anyone older than, say, 12.  I like certain video games - Tiger Woods, old school stuff, Mario Kart, but I'll be damned if I'm gonna let some internet world take over my 'real' world.  Or say 'woot!' when I'm excited about something.
Nice post, rookie

I might swing by anyway on the way home today and if it's there, I'll grab it.  There are other things I'd like from the brewery if they don't have any available either.  There's a new Enjoy By out, so maybe that.  Or that bourbon barrel Arrogant Bastard.  Or something else.  I've found that breweries have a LOT more in stock than anywhere else (no shit, right?).  There's an insanely popular beer out here by Alpine Beer Company, and people go crazy over it when it's in shops.  Limit one, etc.  But you can just drive out to the brewery and get it almost any day of the week!  I don't understand it.

Boss man seems to be talking about leaving for the day in a couple hours.  So now I don't feel bad at all about swinging by the house, grabbing the growlers, and heading out to Stone later.
WOOT ! . Sorry about that .could not help my self  :(
dd! Sorry but it's driving me fuckin' nuts! You don't need a period . after an exclamation point !  The ! works all by itself to denote the end of a goddamn sentence! I tell you this because I care. fwiw, imo, no offense, etc.

Haha, you're only saying what we're all thinking ! .
I swear, I sit back and think: How does he keep doing that? He must be fucking with us. Maybe Steve is really a 3rd grader acting like an adult, somewhat. Hey junior, you don't need a fucking space between the end of a sentence and the period either!

McIlroy threatening to run away and hide, up by 3

I have that on going bet with Sooner Jeff in the major tournaments.  Two guys each (no Tiger, though that rule is just a carryover from when he was playing better).  Lowest combined score wins, both players HAVE to make the cut.  If one of your guys doesn't make the cut and the other guy's do, he wins by default no matter the score.

In this tourney I have Martin Kaymer and Adam Scott.  He has Sergio Garcia and Henrik Stenson.

None on these specifically.  I haven't thought much of any other non-Cuban Partagas I've had.  Some were fine, some were bland.  Just a brand I've ignored for the last few years.

Perfectly fine. I've actually done the same. Only one I've smoked recently was the Black, and that has a little more hair on it. Just seeing if anything has changed to be of interest.

Many other places I'd spend the $$ even at that discount. The only worth while non-cuban I've smoked in the last year was the Benji Master Blend and it was good but not rushing to buy more

Wow! Tiger tripled 17, may miss the cut
Looks like he's safe, but just barely.
He'll somehow work himself into a top 15 finish
Meanwhile, Rory's still putting on a clinic.

Really like playing, but don't watch too much. I find it is a great atmosphere for a nap... Whispering voices, light clapping, birds chirping.... relaxing. Makes me sleepy just talking about it.

Not to mention what I already have at home, haha.  If I do beer it's usually just one 22oz bottle in a night, especially if it's a higher ABV.

Prices are all over the place here.  For most mainstream stuff, it's $6-$9 for up to a 64oz bottle (plus a couple extra ounces since they top 'em off).  Stone's base offerings are about $6 for a 32oz+ growler.  Ballast Point is $5 for 32+ oz, $9 for 64+ ounces.  Goes up a little for some specialties depending on demand and ABV.  Cheaper in almost all cases to get a growler if you're gonna drink that much. The 32+ ounce wootstout growler was the same as the 22oz bottles, maybe $1 more, but I won't go through THAT much of it quickly enough to justify the larger quantity purchase.

We have had 3 breweries pop up here in Fargo in 4 years, so that's been fun to see those companies grow and thrive.  #1 state/capita again for beer consumption...finally they are sobering up and making their own stuff!
I need to go there more, they do a crazy beer/week it seems, here was their latest: The Deceiver Belgian Golden Strong is on tap tonight in the taproom. It pours a golden color with a thick white head. The aroma is a blend of candied citrus peel, spice and honey. Flavor starts with a honey sweetness that finishes with a slight tart character. ABV 8.3% IBU 16.

10 oz. snifters/$4, 16 oz. pints/$6 and growler refills/$10.

Woot!!
And there it is.

haha! Growler first. (http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-eatdrink008.gif)

13.5% hey, now!

Naturally.  Pricey but with that ABV it's like three beers in one.
Ha! Yeah, I never even thoght of it when I asked them to fill my 64 oz'er with Sarco.....Then I went to pay. WTF? $24! Like you say worth it....once in a while.

Prices are all over the place here.  For most mainstream stuff, it's $6-$9 for up to a 64oz bottle (plus a couple extra ounces since they top 'em off).  Stone's base offerings are about $6 for a 32oz+ growler.  Ballast Point is $5 for 32+ oz, $9 for 64+ ounces.  Goes up a little for some specialties depending on demand and ABV.  Cheaper in almost all cases to get a growler if you're gonna drink that much. The 32+ ounce wootstout growler was the same as the 22oz bottles, maybe $1 more, but I won't go through THAT much of it quickly enough to justify the larger quantity purchase.
The cheapest at Dragoon is the original IPA.....and it's $12/64oz

Those are nice prices, wish we had more breweries in the arctic!

Yeah, it's nice that they're all "competing" with each other. Lots of beer drinkers here, and they all want a piece of the pie.  Also nice, though, that they all kinda work together in the battle against the macro breweries.  The only assholes about the whole thing are the lunatics on some of the beer forums out there.
That's awesome...all about the little guys getting their share.  Beverages are a brutal market with the conglomerates, nice to see the little guys makin em sweat! . ;)

And they're making them sweat big time.
We have had 3 breweries pop up here in Fargo in 4 years, so that's been fun to see those companies grow and thrive.  #1 state/capita again for beer consumption...finally they are sobering up and making their own stuff!
I need to go there more, they do a crazy beer/week it seems, here was their latest: The Deceiver Belgian Golden Strong is on tap tonight in the taproom. It pours a golden color with a thick white head. The aroma is a blend of candied citrus peel, spice and honey. Flavor starts with a honey sweetness that finishes with a slight tart character. ABV 8.3% IBU 16.

10 oz. snifters/$4, 16 oz. pints/$6 and growler refills/$10.

Here is the youtube of them if you want to kill 10min

I really enjoy trying stuff from all the different breweries.  There are three within 5 minutes of my office.  Expand that to 15-20 minutes and I'm not even sure how many that'd cover.

That seems more in line with a lot of the smaller breweries out here.  Stone and Ballast Point are some of the cheapest I've seen and they're both very large operations, relatively speaking.  Each of them have 3-4 locations.

I don't know all that much about tax so I can't say for sure whether I'd like that or not.  Really don't know much about any of them, but audit seems to be the general area I'd like.

Haha! I have good friends in both Tax and Audit, very different but the people in Tax seem to enjoy it a little more.  The audit ones like what they do, but they are the ones traveling a lot to clients(50-70%), so that is their big negative.

It's funny how similar yet different they are.  My best friend is a tax accountant and his wife is in audit.  They talk about their careers like they aren't even related, and they admit how one couldn't do the other job without months on the job.  I think it becomes clear when you get into it which ones fits your eye the best.

Stop talking about Tax and the Fuck'n IRS you are ruining my weekend!!!!

I'll give ya that - it's about the least entertaining thing that could possibly be talked about, haha.  Afternoon, Dave.
I thought I'd stepped into the twilight zone......
This is an accounting banter right?
NO nor the IRS Forum almost anything goes here but not those two.

I used to be a big Blue Moon fan, but it's really faded on me...Rounder is amazing though.  I have always liked the Vs, since 2010 or so, not sure if I have had any older than that.  I have some from early 2011 and they are smoking very well, just buttery smooth, right now.

Same here with regards to Blue Moon. Used to like it but all of this newer craft stuff has ruined it for me.  Just my opinion, others can drink whatever the hell they want.  I really don't care.

Good Morning LSU.  How is it going with your Mom?
I will just say she is progressing but the sudden interests of one of my 3 brothers is getting ready to boil over and get really ugly, my 3 brothers totally abandoned her since my fathers passing 7 + years ago and have been holiday visitors only leaving her total care and property needs left to me and my family, of course all of a sudden he doesn't agree with any of her decisions and wants to take total control of her and her life now. The one thing no one talked about when you are younger is what families go through with the aging process, it's expensive, physically wears families out and gets to be really ugly and no one really talks about it. The bad thing is that he and I share power of attorney over my mother so I can see heads locking very shortly on her future care and her assets. It's not a money issue at all since the woman has more cash than she can ever spend and all he wants to do is for her to get rid of all the family property that has been here since the middle 1800's. I just know I want to go really quickly like my father and not put this kind of strain on my wife and children down the road which I know really isn't that far off.

That is a terrible trying situation for sure but certainly not unusual.  I had to deal with both parents suffering miserable ends to their lives but only 1 brother and we had no issues for which I am still immensely appreciative of to this day?  He is a Doctor and that helped me by making me comfortable knowing he could and would make the best decisions for them.  I sure agree on the going quickly after what we went through, especially with my Mother who suffered for several years.  Good to hear she is progressing though.

You're right Chip, this is something that is rarely properly planned for and usually brings out the worst in some people.  Difficult with that joint power of attorney....that's why it is preferred to be with only one person (for better or worse)

If anyone depends on nicotine during very stressful times and find yourself in a situation where you can't smoke because it's forbidden, I have survived this past week with the little item in the pic  I have always laughed about using one but with the cigar flavored liquid and the max nicotine added (24mg) it's a nice alternative to chewing a box of nicoreetes a day or commiting murder.

JdN Antano robusto and coffee, with a very tired lady.
Did I miss something?  Something for the win category??  Dean certainly has a knack for leaving those cliffhangers out there.
yes he does need to elaborate a little, it would be good to hear some good news lately, I wouldn't mind a nice fairy tale about one of his avi girls being rich and wanting to move in with him.
Just a wet dream, nothing to see here so keep moving.

Good morning guys.
Good Morning LSU.  How is it going with your Mom?
I will just say she is progressing but the sudden interests of one of my 3 brothers is getting ready to boil over and get really ugly, my 3 brothers totally abandoned her since my fathers passing 7 + years ago and have been holiday visitors only leaving her total care and property needs left to me and my family, of course all of a sudden he doesn't agree with any of her decisions and wants to take total control of her and her life now. The one thing no one talked about when you are younger is what families go through with the aging process, it's expensive, physically wears families out and gets to be really ugly and no one really talks about it. The bad thing is that he and I share power of attorney over my mother so I can see heads locking very shortly on her future care and her assets. It's not a money issue at all since the woman has more cash than she can ever spend and all he wants to do is for her to get rid of all the family property that has been here since the middle 1800's. I just know I want to go really quickly like my father and not put this kind of strain on my wife and children down the road which I know really isn't that far off.
That sucks, Chip. Sounds like a difficult situation. I'm lucky enough not to have had to deal with losing anyone close to me yet, so I can't imagine what that's like, with other family issues on top of it.

Planning well ahead and getting things in order certainly helps.  And as Travellin Dave said set up a single power of attorney for better or worse.

You're right Chip, this is something that is rarely properly planned for and usually brings out the worst in some people.  Difficult with that joint power of attorney....that's why it is preferred to be with only one person (for better or worse)
Back story on her reasoning, she trusts us both but a close family friend gave power of attorney to one of his children and the first time he got sick and was in the hospital, the son sold all his property and took all of his money and the man was left with nothing after he got out of the hospital fully recovered and he couldn't do anything about it because the other brothers shared the money so he was left with no recourse. Money sometimes creates monsters that you had no idea could exist, this scared her and she didn't want this to happen to her so we have two as check and balance for her well being.

There are other solutions to that issue, especially in Louisiana where powers of attorney are very specific and can easily limit disposition of assets, etc.

We will just have to agree to disagree on that one I will stick with that fucking dumb asshole Tirico.  After all he has had more than 50 sexual harassment complaints at ESPN among many other issues including suspension(s).  Those two assclowns absolutely ruin the broadcast.  Heck they make Johnny Miller look smart.

I was noticing the hat myself thinking how stupid it looked but of course they wear what they are paid to wear and nothing else period the end.  He is a lot older than Fowler (who neither my son or I can stand) and to my knowledge not close to him.  Looks like he has run the wheels off now, has struggled since hooking up with the ultra hot hockey babe.

im sure they all feel like they are good sons and probably appreciate what you and the family do for her. It's time to focus on your mom and her needs. If everyone knows when the time comes all will be divided equally and if she wants specific things done, that they will be. I was recently upset with my sister who has been living off my mom for years (a la deadbeat). My issue is more about just and equal dealings for my kids for now and when the time comes. I told my sister what I was feeling and the issue has been resolved (for now). I wish only the best for all your family.

I'm very happy with the 08 box date.  I know the Diadema was discontinued a year or two ago, so we weren't going to get absolutely 100% fresh smokes.  But a vitola this size and relative cost shouldn't be smoked at 18 months.

 But 5.75 years?  I can do that.

Henrik Stenson and Ryan Palmer both encountered situations that required the application of Rule 18-1 on Saturday at The Open Championship.

On the Par 4, 7th hole, Stenson and Palmer were surprised to witness two seagulls swoop down and pick up their balls that were lying on the fairway.  Struggling to carry Stenson’s ball, the seagull dropped it quickly.  The other gull was more persistent and did not want to miss out on what must have appeared to be an attractive meal and attempted to make off with it.  

Under the Rules, a seagull is an outside agency.   Provided it is known or virtually certain that an outside agency has moved the ball at rest, there is no penalty to the player and the ball must be replaced (Rule 18-1). 

However, often it is the case that the ball may not be retrievable as a result of the outside agency’s actions.  So if a ball to be replaced under this Rule is not immediately recoverable, another ball may be substituted. 

In the Stenson and Palmer case, they managed to retrieve their golf balls back from the seagulls so it was just a case of replacing the ball on the spot where the gulls had picked them up.  But both players were unable to do this as they were unsure of the exact spot. 

If it is impossible to determine the spot where the ball is to be placed, the ball must be dropped as near as possible to the place where it lay originally, but not in a hazard or on a putting green.  As a result, both players estimated the spot with the assistance of the referee and dropped the ball at this spot to ensure the ball was replaced as required by Rule 18-1.

Stenson went on to “birdie” the hole, while Palmer was not so fortunate and finished with a bogey 5.

Mag50 has a great draw and starting out with chewy meaty smoke....cigar has some spongy spots, no ya solid pack.the finish is super clean, but I'm only a few puffs in..... This cigar is very mild at the start, I can tell it's a quality cigar, it's reminiscent of a Mac at the start here..... The nose on the Metusalem Ron is sweet caramel.... Flavor is the same, a smooth caramel like the little cubes we would get as kids, smooth and warm as it goes down.... The Mag allows me to retrohail but only gives some grass notes.....1st 1" is about done, expecting much more now.....first 1/3 done, mild cigar and not much more than cream. It pleasant and plays off the cafe late and Rum very well. Not transitions or big flavors or complexity thus far....hint of toasted almond just came to the party.

Evening, muchachos. Was supposed to be home tonight, but we got caught in a minor gale. 40 mph winds and 4-foot seas. Ended up taking refuge between two islands. Tied up on a buoy now. We'll ride it out tonight, better conditions predicted tomorrow.
so you're maroomed?
Hope Maryanne and Ginger are on board.

Mag50 has a great draw and starting out with chewy meaty smoke....cigar has some spongy spots, no ya solid pack.the finish is super clean, but I'm only a few puffs in..... This cigar is very mild at the start, I can tell it's a quality cigar, it's reminiscent of a Mac at the start here..... The nose on the Metusalem Ron is sweet caramel.... Flavor is the same, a smooth caramel like the little cubes we would get as kids, smooth and warm as it goes down.... The Mag allows me to retrohail but only gives some grass notes.....1st 1" is about done, expecting much more now.....first 1/3 done, mild cigar and not much more than cream. It pleasant and plays off the cafe late and Rum very well. Not transitions or big flavors or complexity thus far....hint of toasted almond just came to the party.
Dave,  How come you can get your cigar pics right side up, but everything else is upside down? At least get the sexy broad pics right!
You mean his daughter?

good sfternoon. where did the day go? shot a 99 at the golf course, spent an hour with my counselor and got nothing accomplished other than validation that I've been screwed, got a few groceries, had a frozen enchilada dinner for lunch, compiled a financial report and thoughts/information for a separation agreement and emailed it to my lawyer, and now it's cigar time. probably an EO #21. I'm drained now.

Revisiting the young Mag50, still not a very good smoke till you get to the last 1/3 IMO. They need way more than a year. I'm thinking any Cuban with a RG over 40 needs five years to deliver what we pay for them. 2/3 of mediocrity to get to the payoff is way to much work for me.

DD I think it's all BS, we can't all like the same things. I'm happy you enjoyed it and that's all that maters. We can talk ourselves into likening or disliking something, and reviews tend to do that. Part of my disappointment was expecting more than I got out of the cigar. If it had a Gurkha band, I may have said, "this cigars pretty good". Who gives a fuck, smoke what you like and if you don't then don't buy any more. That's the best review of all.

Zen Teachings
-------------------------

1. Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me for the path is narrow. In fact, just leave me the Hell alone.

2. Sex is like air. It's not that important unless you aren't getting any.

3. No one is listening until you fart.

4. Always remember you're unique. Just like everyone else.

5. Never test the depth of the water with both feet.

6. If you think nobody cares whether you're alive or dead, try missing a couple of payments.

7. Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

8. If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you.

9. Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish, and he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day.

10. If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably well worth it.

11. If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.

12. Some days you are the dog, some days you are the tree.

13. Don't worry, it only seems kinky the first time.

14. Good judgment comes from bad experience ... and most of that comes from bad judgment.

15. A closed mouth gathers no foot.

16. There are two excellent theories for arguing with women. Neither one works.

17. Generally speaking, you aren't learning much when your lips are moving.

18. Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

19. We are born naked, wet and hungry, and get slapped on our ass... then things just keep getting worse.

20. Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.

The Skeleton
-------------------------

A very large, old, building was being torn down in Chicago to make room
for a new skyscraper. Due to its proximity to other buildings it could not
be imploded and had to be dismantled floor by floor.

While working on the 49th floor, two construction workers found a skeleton
in a small closet behind the elevator shaft. They decided that they should
call the police. When the police arrived they directed them to the closet
and showed them the skeleton fully clothed and standing upright. They
said, "This could be Jimmy Hoffa or somebody really important."

Two days went by and the construction workers couldn't stand it any more,
they had to know who they had found. They called the police and said, "We
are the two guys who found the skeleton in the closet and we want to know
if it was Jimmy Hoffa or somebody important."

The police said, "It's not Jimmy Hoffa, but it was somebody kind of
important."

"Well, who was it?"

"The 1956 Blonde National Hide-and-Seek Champion."

LOL!  Yeah I hear ya about the smaller ones in the heat, I would heavily favor the PC size in that climate.  I get a lot of dried fruit flavors when I smoke it, but to each him own.  That's the main reason why it's a staple in my humidor is for those flavors.  And trust me, aged ones are unbelievable.

Indeed. We actually were in no great danger. The TQ is a blue-water boat, has been to Alaska and Mexico, and can handle far worse than 40-mph winds and 5-foot seas. The crew, however, was a little green from not having been on the boat in two years (mom was battling cancer last summer). And #2 son had never seen anything like that. So the tension level was high, and exhaustion became a factor.  We'll tell stories about it for years, and the waves will of course get taller and the winds heavier...and there will be sharks and killer octopi.

Morning, muchachos. Back from the sea. Got caught in a freak gale on Saturday and had a hairy crossing to hide between two islands, so didn't get home until yesterday afternoon. Hell of an adventure, though.
sounds like fun! Welcome home.

Morning DR.  We're just hearing how raz was swallowed by a whale.
Actually, that was two years ago and it was #1 son. He was motoring the dinghy across Liberty Bay and hadn't seen the gray whale that had surfaced behind him. He swung around to come back across and the whale ate him.

Okay, it didn't eat him, but it scared him pretty good and we had to discuss the matter with Federal officials who thought he had been harassing the whale.

Happened to be in the area monitoring whales - dumb luck. Getting within 100 yards of whales is a federal crime.

I find them to be a bit much myself, even the Yeti was pushing it for me. Not so much the abv portion just seems the higher the abv the thicker/heavier, more potent the flavors. I want to taste the good flavors, not be dominated by them

Yeah, the flavors were what I imagine licking the inside of a bourbon barrel would taste like.  Or putting the barrel in a blender and turning it in to some kind of paste.  Not sure what you're supposed to 'enjoy' that sort of beer with because it totally blows away everything else you're having with it.  At least I know I don't have to spend a bunch of money on the bourbon barrel stuff any more, haha.

Same here.  Maybe down to 7%.  6%-ish if it's earlier in the day.  13% and I go straight to drunk.

I was really close to grabbing a growler of the Horny Goat PB but couldn't quite imagine drinking it all day. Also not a place I'd be near again really soon so I passed. Drank a 6-pack of Laguanita's IPA instead so may not have been much different afterall

As much as I'd like to have growlers for every brewery out here, I just have some from Stone and Ballast Point since those are the two I'm by most often. But even if I had easy access to growlers of something like the SinTax, I don't know that I'd want that much of it all at once.  What I really need is my own bar so I can keep kegs fresh.  Figure that's the next logical step in this obsession, right?  I always get emails from Stone about purchasing kegs of their stuff.  Then I could keep the stuff for a while before worrying about it going bad.

As much as I'd like to have growlers for every brewery out here, I just have some from Stone and Ballast Point since those are the two I'm by most often. But even if I had easy access to growlers of something like the SinTax, I don't know that I'd want that much of it all at once.  What I really need is my own bar so I can keep kegs fresh.  Figure that's the next logical step in this obsession, right?  I always get emails from Stone about purchasing kegs of their stuff.  Then I could keep the stuff for a while before worrying about it going bad.
I want a setup like that, great deal when you can keep a keg 'fresh' for 100days easily

Morning Dusty, Will, Joe, Bret

Hey there, Scott.  Had the growler of the wootstout last night... yikes.  13% ABV is no joke.  It was pretty good but incredibly thick/heavy.  I think I want to like these bourbon barrel stouts more than I actually do.
I find them to be a bit much myself, even the Yeti was pushing it for me. Not so much the abv portion just seems the higher the abv the thicker/heavier, more potent the flavors. I want to taste the good flavors, not be dominated by them

Yeah, the flavors were what I imagine licking the inside of a bourbon barrel would taste like.  Or putting the barrel in a blender and turning it in to some kind of paste.  Not sure what you're supposed to 'enjoy' that sort of beer with because it totally blows away everything else you're having with it.  At least I know I don't have to spend a bunch of money on the bourbon barrel stuff any more, haha.
So you didn't sample anything from the package yet? I'm curious what you think of the Horny Goat and the Founder's Stout

Not yet, got some of them in the fridge, though.  I was too anxious to try that wootstout because of all the great things I'd been hearing about it out here.

Morning, Shaun.  I'd need a big bar, though, with at least 10 different taps.  I like variety too much to have to be 'stuck' with the same beer for a couple months straight.

well I spoke too soon. just got off the phone with the owner in Yankeetown. she is reserving a camper for me and as soon as my deposit gets there and clears I can be in Florida as soon as I tie up loose ends, quit my job, and pack the Jeep.
Congrats Dean!  When Bianca and I go to visit her Dad in New Port Richey, I'll have to come visit you.
thanks KC. you'll be the first person I visit when I move in and Flossie's the first attraction I want to see.

Agreed, the wife and I have looked at some 3-5tap ones for the basement...would be a ton of fun! Mike's dad built a filthy setup with his homebrews and integrated it into a nice bar, I think he had 6 taps

Joe - Good morning.  I took your advice from way back and took a fifth of Wild Turkey 101 on the boat trip.  You're right - it's an entirely different whiskey than the standard Wild Turkey.  It's going to become my everyday bourbon, I think.

The standard being the 86 proof, I assume?  If so, yes, the 101 is tasty.  Nothing that'll blow you away but it's under $20 and you can get it almost anywhere liquor is sold.  Goes down easy, and if people mix it with soda or whatever you don't feel like it's being wasted.

Hey there, Scott.  Had the growler of the wootstout last night... yikes.  13% ABV is no joke.  It was pretty good but incredibly thick/heavy.  I think I want to like these bourbon barrel stouts more than I actually do.

I'm actually only half joking.  The hair isn't right, but everything else is frighteningly close.  I had to do a double-take. Scary.
Lucky you!
Well, from the front is probably a different story.  But from behind, yeah, was a little disturbing.
If that's her from the back who cares if she even has a front?
Ummmm.....I do!   
Didn't know you were Greek Fishy...
Fishy likes cowgirls, preferably reverse-cowgirls  :o
Who doesn't?

Morning Dusty, Will, Joe, Bret

Hey there, Scott.  Had the growler of the wootstout last night... yikes.  13% ABV is no joke.  It was pretty good but incredibly thick/heavy.  I think I want to like these bourbon barrel stouts more than I actually do.
I find them to be a bit much myself, even the Yeti was pushing it for me. Not so much the abv portion just seems the higher the abv the thicker/heavier, more potent the flavors. I want to taste the good flavors, not be dominated by them

Yeah, the flavors were what I imagine licking the inside of a bourbon barrel would taste like.  Or putting the barrel in a blender and turning it in to some kind of paste.  Not sure what you're supposed to 'enjoy' that sort of beer with because it totally blows away everything else you're having with it.  At least I know I don't have to spend a bunch of money on the bourbon barrel stuff any more, haha.
So you didn't sample anything from the package yet? I'm curious what you think of the Horny Goat and the Founder's Stout

Not yet, got some of them in the fridge, though.  I was too anxious to try that wootstout because of all the great things I'd been hearing about it out here.
Let's go, get drinkin'
I was really close to grabbing a growler of the Horny Goat PB but couldn't quite imagine drinking it all day. Also not a place I'd be near again really soon so I passed. Drank a 6-pack of Laguanita's IPA instead so may not have been much different afterall

As much as I'd like to have growlers for every brewery out here, I just have some from Stone and Ballast Point since those are the two I'm by most often. But even if I had easy access to growlers of something like the SinTax, I don't know that I'd want that much of it all at once.  What I really need is my own bar so I can keep kegs fresh.  Figure that's the next logical step in this obsession, right?  I always get emails from Stone about purchasing kegs of their stuff.  Then I could keep the stuff for a while before worrying about it going bad.
I want a setup like that, great deal when you can keep a keg 'fresh' for 100days easily

Morning, Shaun.  I'd need a big bar, though, with at least 10 different taps.  I like variety too much to have to be 'stuck' with the same beer for a couple months straight.
Agreed, the wife and I have looked at some 3-5tap ones for the basement...would be a ton of fun! Mike's dad built a filthy setup with his homebrews and integrated it into a nice bar, I think he had 6 taps
Wait.....what?.....you and your wife have three strap-ons?   Now you are bragging yellowstar!
You'll have to forgive Dave, he was just in France
Worse than that, I overshot and am now in Cincinnati.  Sheesh.

Time for a BotL comparison!  8)
I was hoping I had a similar picture accessible for comparison.  I'll have to look on computers at home.  Only one I have with me is - ahem - not shareable. 

This pic from a couple years ago is just to indicate that I'm not whistling Dixie. ;-)

In 1994, Britain's Labor Party elected Tony Blair its new leader, succeeding the late John Smith. Former Senate Republican leader Hugh Scott died in Falls Church, Virginia, at age 93.
I'm in Falls Church,VA right now. I'll have to hoist a few to his memory.

Five years ago: The Senate voted to terminate further production of the Air Force's topline F-22 fighter jets. Prosecutors in Cambridge, Massachusetts, dropped a disorderly conduct charge against prominent black scholar Henry Louis Gates Jr., who was arrested by a white officer at his home near Harvard University after a report of a break-in. John "Marmaduke" Dawson, a longtime Grateful Dead collaborator and co-founder of New Riders of the Purple Sage, died in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico at 64. Taco Bell mascot Gidget the Chihuahua died in Santa Clarita, California,
I always thought our JR reminded me of the guys in the NRPS. Great music.

  Hi Dean, I was reading up on the banter & commenting as a I went along.  Last we were on at the same time you said you got an invitation by text during the night, for dinner & a sleepover ... I wanted to yell ... Don't do it, Dean it's a trap ... The spider & the fly, the black widow ... It's when we were kids trying to catch a rabbit with a carrot and a box over it propped up with a stick tied to a string, so once the rabbit grabs the carrot under the box, you pull the string and BAM, you have yourself a captive rabbit ... So, what happened ..  you got out ... alive ... unscathed?

Anywho....had a CM Licey which was great, accompanied with some shoulder monkey whiskey this afternoon after another hike with the pointer pup, then moved onto an Antano consul.  Bitter bitter bitter.  Left it in the ashtray for tomorrow, hopefully some fresh air and 70% humidity outside will help.  Will re light tomorrow.  Then a big 60 maduro Blend Lab with some Elijah Craig 12 year, was awesome.   Very AJ-ish.  Now a MoWPA with a pomegranate bourbon martini.

On this day in 2003, U.S. Army Private Jessica Lynch, a prisoner-of-war who was rescued from an Iraqi hospital, receives a hero's welcome when she returns to her hometown of Palestine, West Virginia. The story of the 19-year-old supply clerk, who was captured by Iraqi forces in March 2003, gripped America; however, it was later revealed that some details of Lynch's dramatic capture and rescue might have been exaggerated.

Lynch, who was born April 26, 1983, was part of the 507th Ordnance Maintenance Company from Fort Bliss, Texas. On March 23, 2003, just days after the U.S. invaded Iraq, Lynch was riding in a supply convoy when her unit took a wrong turn and was ambushed by Iraqi forces near Nasiriya. Eleven American soldiers died and four others besides Lynch were captured.

Lynch, who sustained multiple broken bones and other injuries when her vehicle crashed during the ambush, was taken to an Iraqi hospital. On April 1, she was rescued by U.S. Special Forces who raided the hospital where she was being held. They also recovered the bodies of eight of Lynch's fellow soldiers. Lynch was taken to a military hospital in Germany for treatment and then returned to the United States.

Lynch's story garnered massive media attention and she became an overnight celebrity. Various reports emerged about Lynch's experience, with some news accounts indicating that even after Lynch was wounded during the ambush she fought back against her captors. However, Lynch later stated that she had been knocked unconscious after her vehicle crashed and couldn't remember the details of what had happened to her. She also said she had not been mistreated by the staff at the Iraqi hospital and they put up no resistance to her rescue. Critics–and Lynch herself–charged the U.S. government with embellishing her story to boost patriotism and help promote the Iraq war.

In August 2003, Lynch received a medical honorable discharge. She collaborated on a book about her experience, I Am a Soldier, Too: The Jessica Lynch Story, which was released later that year. In April 2007, Lynch testified before Congress that she had falsely been portrayed as a "little girl Rambo" and the U.S. military had hyped her story for propaganda reasons. According to Lynch: "I am still confused as to why they chose to lie and tried to make me a legend when the real heroics of my fellow soldiers that day were, in fact, legendary." She added: "The truth of war is not always easy to hear but is always more heroic than the hype."

On this day in 1779, Mohawk Indian Chief Joseph Brant leads a mixed force of Loyalists and Indians in surrounding a force of 120 colonial militiamen from New York and New Jersey at Minisink, New York. The militia was commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Benjamin Tusten, Major Samuel Meeker and Colonel John Hathorn.

Brant's party of 90 Tories and Loyalist Iroquois had executed a successful raid in the Neversink Valley in New York on July 20, during which they destroyed a school and a church, as well as farms in Peenpack and Mahackamack. In response, the Patriot militia intended to ambush Brant as he traveled up the Delaware River in order to recover some of the animals and goods taken in the raid two days earlier. As the Patriot militia prepared for the ambush, a scout's gunfire alerted Brant to the Patriots' presence; he then ordered his troops to outflank the Americans. The Patriots were overwhelmed. Tusten and approximately 45 to 50 others were killed in the initial battle and their ensuing defense from a hillside above the river. Twenty-nine others managed to escape.

Joseph Brant ranked among Britain's best commanders during the American War for Independence. He was an educated Christian and Freemason who studied directly with Eleazer Wheelock at Moor's Indian Charity School, the parent institution of Dartmouth College. His older sister Mary was founding father Sir William Johnson's common-law wife and played a significant role in colonial and revolutionary Indian affairs. At the close of the war, the Brants and their Iroquois followers left the United States for Canada, where they hoped to find land and safety with their British allies.

On July 22, 2002, over the strenuous opposition of the United Auto Workers (UAW) and the auto industry, Governor Gray Davis of California signs a stringent law regulating emissions from automobiles.

The U.S. Congress passed the first national fuel economy standards, known as Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards, in 1975, in the wake of the 1973 oil embargo.

The standards sought to control emissions of so-called "greenhouse gases" (such as carbon dioxide) from cars and light trucks that contribute to global warming, or the gradual increase in the temperature of the earth's atmosphere. Automakers have historically resisted increases in these standards, as stricter standards usually require an overhaul of their production methods to make cleaner and more fuel-efficient vehicles.

California--which represents 10 percent of the nation's automobile market and is known for its struggles with air pollution--took the lead early in setting stricter fuel emissions standards than the federal government's. Assembly Bill (AB) 1493, which Davis signed into law in July 2002, was the first law in the nation to address the greenhouse gases emitted in automobile exhaust. The law required the California Air Resources Board (CARB) to regulate greenhouse gases under the state's motor vehicle program and gave automakers until the 2009 model year to produce cars and light trucks that would collectively emit 22 percent fewer greenhouse gases by 2012 and 30 percent fewer by 2016.

Despite his well-documented enthusiasm for the Hummer, a sport-utility-vehicle (SUV) known for its prodigious size (and prodigious emission of greenhouse gases), Davis' Republican successor, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, sought to uphold AB 1493 against continuous challenges from the auto industry and the presidential administration of George W. Bush. Democrat Barack Obama's election as president in 2008 turned the tide in California's favor: In January 2009, Obama directed the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to reverse an earlier decision and give California (by then joined by 13 other states) the right to adopt tougher auto emissions standards. That May, Obama announced plans to bring the entire nation up to California's proposed standard, which would make cars nationwide roughly 30 percent cleaner and more fuel-efficient by 2016.

Confederate General John Bell Hood continues to try to drive General William T. Sherman from the outskirts of Atlanta when he attacks the Yankees on Bald Hill. The attack failed, and Sherman tightened his hold on Atlanta.

Confederate President Jefferson Davis had appointed Hood commander of the Army of Tennessee just four days before the engagement at Atlanta. Davis had been frustrated with the defensive campaign of the previous commander, Joseph Johnston, so he appointed Hood to drive Sherman back North. Hood attacked Peachtree Creek on July 20, but he could not break the Federals.

Two days later, Hood tried again at Bald Hill. The Union force under Sherman consisted of three armies: James McPherson's Army of the Tennessee, John Schofield's Army of the Ohio, and George Thomas' Army of the Cumberland. Thomas' force pressed on Atlanta from the north, at Peachtree Creek, while McPherson swung to Atlanta's eastern fringe to cut the Georgia Railroad, which ran to Decatur. Hood struck at McPherson on July 22, but several problems blunted the Confederate attack. The broken, rugged terrain made coordination difficult, and the attack, which had been planned for dawn, did not begin until after noon. Most important, and unbeknownst to Hood, McPherson extended his line east. The Confederates had assembled along a line–which they thought was behind the Union flank–but was now directly in front of fortified Federal soldiers. Hood's men briefly breached the Union line, but could not hold the position. The day ended without a significant change in the position of the two armies.

For the second time in three days, Hood failed to break the Union hold on Atlanta. His already-outnumbered army fared poorly. He lost more than 5,000 men, while the Union suffered 3,700 casualties. Among them was General McPherson, who had been killed while scouting the lines during the battle. He was one of the most respected and promising commanders in the Union army.

In a dramatic turnaround, Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev indicates that he is willing to negotiate a ban on intermediate-range nuclear missiles without conditions. Gorbachev's decision paved the way for the groundbreaking Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty with the United States.

Since coming to power in 1985, Gorbachev had made it clear that he sought a less contentious relationship with the United States. His American counterpart, President Ronald Reagan, was a staunch anticommunist and initially harbored deep suspicions about Gorbachev's sincerity. After meeting with Gorbachev in November 1985, however, Reagan came to believe that progress might be made on a number of issues, including arms control. In subsequent summit meetings, the two leaders focused on the so-called intermediate-range nuclear missiles that both nations had massed in Europe and around the world. In late 1986, it appeared that the two nations were close to an agreement that would eliminate the weapons from Europe. Negotiations stumbled, however, when Gorbachev demanded that the elimination of the missiles be accompanied by U.S. abandonment of its development of the strategic defense initiative (the "Star Wars" plan). The talks broke down while Reagan and Gorbachev traded accusations of bad faith. On July 22, 1987, Gorbachev dramatically announced that he was ready to discuss the elimination of intermediate-range missiles on a worldwide basis, with no conditions. By dropping his objection to the strategic defense initiative (which was one of Reagan's pet projects), Gorbachev cleared the way for negotiations, and he and Reagan agreed to meet again.

Gorbachev's change of mind was the result of a number of factors. His own nation was suffering from serious economic problems and Gorbachev desperately wanted to cut Russia's military spending. In addition, the growing "no-nukes" movement in Europe was interfering with his ability to conduct diplomatic relations with France, Great Britain, and other western European nations. Finally, Gorbachev seemed to have a sincere personal trust in and friendship with Ronald Reagan, and this feeling was apparently reciprocal. In December 1987, during a summit in Washington, the two men signed off on the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty, which eliminated an entire class of nuclear weapons.

John Herbert Dillinger joins the Navy in order to avoid charges of auto theft in Indiana, marking the beginning of America's most notorious criminal's downfall. Years later, Dillinger's reputation was forged in a single 12-month period, during which he robbed more banks than Jesse James did in 15 years and became the most wanted fugitive in the nation.

Dillinger didn't last in the Navy very long. Within months he had gone AWOL several times–the last time in December 1923. Making his way back to Indiana, he was arrested for armed robbery the following summer. Dillinger pled guilty, thinking that he would receive a light sentence, but instead got 10 to 20 years. His first words to the warden at the prison were, "I won't cause you any trouble except to escape." A man of his word, Dillinger had attempted to escape three times by the end of the year.

Between escape attempts, Dillinger became friendly with some of the more professional thieves in the prison. After he was finally paroled in May 1933, Dillinger hooked up with his new friends and began robbing banks throughout the Midwest. He also began planning to break his friends out of prison. In September, he smuggled guns in to Harry Pierpont, who led a 10-man break from the Michigan City prison.

In 1933, Dillinger's assistance turned out to be fortuitous because as his friends were breaking out, Dillinger himself was captured and arrested for bank robbery in Dayton, Ohio, and then imprisoned in Lima, Ohio. Pierpont and the others returned the favor and broke Dillinger out in October, killing a sheriff in the process. The gang was now in full force. A week later, they raided a police arsenal in Peru, Indiana. The arrogant bandits pretended to be tourists who wanted to see what weapons the police were going to use to capture the Dillinger gang.

Given the remarkable string of armed robberies and acts of violence in such a short period of time, police departments throughout the Midwest set up special units to capture Dillinger. Ironically, his eventual arrest was the result of pure luck. While hiding out in Tucson, Arizona, Dillinger was caught in a fire that broke out in his hotel. Firefighters became suspicious when they were offered a large sum of money to save two heavy suitcases. When they found a small arsenal of guns inside, those involved, including Dillinger, were taken into custody.

Dillinger was extradited to Indiana and held in what was believed to be an escape-proof jail, with extra guards posted to protect against outside attacks. But on March 3, 1934, Dillinger used a fake pistol that he had carved out of wood and painted black to escape. For the next several months, Dillinger and his gang went on a bank-robbing spree with the FBI one step behind at all times. J. Edgar Hoover, the director of the FBI, reportedly put out an order that agents should shoot Dillinger on sight. An immigrant named Anna Sage offered to set the outlaw up if deportation proceedings against her for operating a brothel were dropped. On July 22, 1934, detective Martin Zarkovich shot a man identified by the FBI as Dillinger as he was leaving the Biograph Theater in Chicago, Illinois.

Some historians believe that the man killed that day was not Dillinger, and that Dillinger may have engineered the setup to drop out of sight. If so, he was successful–no further record of Dillinger exists.

Milwaukee, Wisconsin, police officers spot Tracy Edwards running down the street in handcuffs, and upon investigation, they find one of the grisliest scenes in modern history-Jeffrey Dahmer's apartment.

Edwards told the police that Dahmer had held him at his apartment and threatened to kill him. Although they initially thought the story was dubious, the officers took Edwards back to Dahmer's apartment. Dahmer calmly explained that the whole matter was simply a misunderstanding and the officers almost believed him. However, they spotted a few Polaroid photos of dismembered bodies, and Dahmer was arrested.

When Dahmer's apartment was fully searched, a house of horrors was revealed. In addition to photo albums full of pictures of body parts, the apartment was littered with human remains: Several heads were in the refrigerator and freezer; two skulls were on top of the computer; and a 57-gallon drum containing several bodies decomposing in chemicals was found in a corner of the bedroom. There was also evidence to suggest that Dahmer had been eating some of his victims.

Neighbors told both detectives and the press that they had noticed an awful smell emanating from the apartment but that Dahmer had explained it away as expired meat. However, the most shocking revelation about how Dahmer had managed to conceal his awful crimes in the middle of a city apartment building would come a few days later.

Apparently, police had been called two months earlier about a naked and bleeding 14-year-old boy being chased down an alley by Dahmer. The responding officers actually returned the boy, who had been drugged, to Dahmer's apartment–where he was promptly killed. The officers, who said that they believed it to be a domestic dispute, were later fired.

A forensic examination of the apartment turned up 11 victims–the first of whom disappeared in March 1989, just two months before Dahmer successfully escaped a prison sentence for child molestation by telling the judge that he was desperately seeking to change his conduct. Dahmer later confessed to 17 murders in all, dating back to his first victim in 1978.

The jury rejected Dahmer's insanity defense, and he was sentenced to 15 life terms. He survived one attempt on his life in July 1994, but was killed by another inmate on November 28, 1994.

Outside Chicago's Biograph Theatre, notorious criminal John Dillinger--America's "Public Enemy No. 1"--is killed in a hail of bullets fired by federal agents. In a fiery bank-robbing career that lasted just over a year, Dillinger and his associates robbed 11 banks for more than $300,000, broke jail and narrowly escaped capture multiple times, and killed seven police officers and three federal agents.

John Dillinger was born in Indianapolis, Indiana, in 1903. A juvenile delinquent, he was arrested in 1924 after a botched mugging. He pleaded guilty, hoping for clemency, but was sentenced to 10 to 20 years at Pendleton Reformatory. While in prison, he made several failed escapes and was adopted by a group of professional bank robbers led by Harry Pierpont, who taught him the ways of their trade. When his friends were transferred to Indiana's tough Michigan City Prison, he requested to be transferred there too.

In May 1933, Dillinger was paroled, and he met up with accomplices of Pierpont. Dillinger's plan was to raise enough funds to finance a prison break by Pierpont and the others, who then would take him on as a member of their elite robbery gang. In four months, Dillinger and his gang robbed four Indiana and Ohio banks, two grocery stores, and a drug store for a total of more than $40,000. He gained notoriety as a sharply dressed and athletic gunman who at one bank leapt over the high teller railing into the vault.

With the help of two of Pierpont's women friends, Dillinger set up the jailbreak. Guns were bought and arranged to be smuggled into Michigan City Prison. Prison workers were bribed, and a safe house was set up. On September 22, however, just days before the jailbreak was scheduled to occur, Dillinger was arrested in Dayton, Ohio. Four days later, Pierpont and nine others broke out of Michigan City. Pierpont's gang robbed a bank in Ohio for $11,000 and on October 12 came to Ohio to free Dillinger from the Lima city jail. The Lima sheriff was killed during the successful breakout. On October 30, the gang robbed a police arsenal, acquiring weapons, ammunition, and bulletproof vests.

The Pierpont/Dillinger gang robbed banks in Indiana, Wisconsin, and Chicago for more than $130,000, a great fortune in the Depression era, and eluded the police in several close encounters. In January 1934, the gang headed to Tucson, Arizona, to lay low. By this time, four police officers had been killed and two wounded, and the Chicago police had established an elite squad to track down the fugitives. They were recognized in Tucson and on January 25 captured without bloodshed.

Dillinger was extradited to Indiana, arraigned for his January 15 murder of Indiana police officer William Patrick O'Malley, and held at Crown Point prison. On March 3, while still awaiting trial, he executed his most celebrated escape. That morning, he brandished a gun and methodically began locking up the prison officials. The legend is that the weapon was a wooden gun carved by Dillinger and blackened with shoe polish, but it may also have been a real gun smuggled into the prison by an associate. Whatever the case, Dillinger raided the prison arsenal, where he found two sub-machine guns, and then enlisted the aid of another prisoner, an African American man named Herbert Youngblood. Dillinger and Youngblood then made their way to the prison garage, where they stole a sheriff's car and calmly drove off--after pulling the ignition wires from the other vehicles parked there.

Parting ways with Youngblood, Dillinger traveled to Chicago and formed a new gang featuring "Baby Face" Nelson, a psychopathic killer who used to work for Al Capone. The new Dillinger gang robbed banks in South Dakota and Iowa, netting $101,500 and wounding two more police officers. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) joined the manhunt for Dillinger after he escaped from Crown Point, and on March 31 two FBI agents closed in on him at an apartment in St. Paul, Minnesota. Dillinger and an accomplice shot their way out.

In April, the Dillinger gang went to hide out at a resort in Wisconsin, but the FBI was tipped off. On April 22, the FBI stormed the resort. In a disastrous operation, three civilians were mistakenly shot by the FBI, one of whom died; Baby Face Nelson killed one agent, shot another, and critically wounded a police officer; the entire Dillinger gang escaped.

With two other gang members, Dillinger traveled to Chicago, surviving a shoot-out with Minnesota police along the way. In Chicago, he lived in a safe house and got a facelift to conceal his identity. At some point, he also used acid to burn off his fingerprints. On June 30, he participated in his last robbery, in South Bend, Indiana. The gang got away with about $30,000 at the cost of one officer killed, four civilians shot, and one gang member shot.

In July, Anna Sage, a Romanian-born brothel madam in Chicago and friend of Dillinger's, agreed to cooperate with the FBI in exchange for leniency in an upcoming deportation hearing. She also hoped to cash in on the $10,000 bounty that had been put on his head. On July 22, Sage and Dillinger went to see the gangster movie Manhattan Melodrama at the Biograph Theatre around the corner from her house. Twenty FBI agents and police officers staked out the theater and waited for him to emerge with Sage, who would be wearing an orange dress to identify herself.

At 10:40 p.m., Dillinger came out. Sage's orange dress looked red under the Biograph's lights, which would earn her the nickname "the lady in red." Dillinger was ordered to surrender, but he took off running. He made it as far as an alley at the end of the block before he was gunned down, allegedly because he pulled a gun. Two bystanders were wounded in the gunfire. Public Enemy No. 1, as FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover had deemed him, was dead.

Some researchers have claimed that another man, not Dillinger, was killed outside the Biograph, citing autopsy findings on the corpse that allegedly contradict Dillinger's known medical record.

Former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein’s sons, Qusay and Uday Hussein, are killed after a three-hour firefight with U.S. forces in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul. It is widely believed that the two men were even more cruel and ruthless than their notorious father, and their death was celebrated among many Iraqis. Uday and Qusay were 39 and 37 years old, respectively, when they died. Both are said to have amassed considerable fortunes through their participation in illegal oil smuggling.

Uday Hussein, as Saddam’s first-born son, was the natural choice to succeed the feared despot. But even the seemingly amoral Saddam took issue with Uday’s extravagant lifestyle—he is said to have personally owned hundreds of cars—and lack of personal discipline. After Uday bludgeoned and stabbed one of Saddam’s favorite attendants to death at a 1988 party, Saddam briefly had him imprisoned and beaten.

While Saddam began to favor his second son Qusay, Uday continued to make a name for himself among the Iraqi people for his sadism and cruelty. Prone to beating and torturing his servants and anyone else who displeased him, he was known to spend time studying new torture devices and methods to improve his technique. He even treated his so-called friends poorly—in one report, he forced some to drink dangerous amounts of alcohol purely for his amusement. Uday was also a man of unrestrained sexual appetites, sleeping with several women per night up to five nights a week. He was known for raping young women–some as young as 12–whom he found attractive, threatening their and their families’ lives if they complained or spoke out against the crime. He would sometimes torture and kill his victims after sex.

Uday held several jobs during his father’s regime, most notably publishing the most widely read newspaper in the country and heading Iraq’s Olympic Committee. In that position, he is known to have beaten athletes whom he felt did not perform up to expectations. He was also the head of the Fedayeen Saddam, one of his father’s security groups. In 1996, Uday was shot while driving in his car. Though never proven, it has been speculated that his brother Qusay may have been behind the assassination attempt. The incident caused him to suffer a stroke and, despite surgery, left a bullet lodged in his spine. Although he recovered most function, it is said that Uday lived with considerable pain for the rest of his life, which may have exacerbated his sadistic tendencies. The weakness he experienced after the shooting may also have contributed to his father’s growing doubts about his suitability as a successor.

At the same time, Qusay was earning Saddam’s trust. Married with four children, Qusay was said to be less sadistic than his brother, but was still a cold and ruthless killer who was much feared throughout the country. While Uday often bragged about his excesses and violent exploits, Qusay was known to intentionally keep a much lower profile. He worshipped his father and worked hard to impress him. After he proved himself by brutally repressing the Shi’ite uprisings that occurred after the 1991 Gulf War—even doing some of the killing himself—Saddam rewarded Qusay with a series of more responsible posts, including command of Iraq’s elite fighting force, the Republican Guard, and the Special Security Organization, Iraq’s secret police. By that time, it had become clear that Qusay had replaced his brother as Saddam’s likely heir.

Despite Qusay’s superior reputation, observers noted with interest that Uday’s Fedayeen Saddam actually outperformed the Qusay-led Republican Guard during the United States’ 2003 invasion of Iraq. Qusay proved to be an ineffective leader, showing fear and often second-guessing his own decisions. After the invasion, both brothers went into hiding and the U.S. government posted a $15 million reward for information leading to the discovery of either man’s location. Though it was widely speculated that they would not be found together because of their mutual enmity, an informant’s tip led U.S. Special Forces to a house in which they were both staying on July 22, 2003. After drawing fire, the soldiers withdrew, until receiving backup in the form of 100 troops from the 101st Airborne division, Apache helicopters, and an A-10 gunship. A battle ensued, after which Americans entered the house and found the bodies of the two brothers, as well as that of Qusay’s 14-year-old son. They were buried in a cemetery near the city of Tikrit, their father’s birthplace.

In the wake of their deaths, the American government drew criticism for releasing pictures of Uday’s and Qusay’s lifeless bodies, but insisted the move was necessary to convince the skeptical Iraqi people that the long-feared brothers were truly dead. About five months later, on December 13, 2003, their father, who also went into hiding after the U.S. invasion, was found and captured alive by American forces. His trial by special tribunal for multiple crimes committed during his reign began in October 2005. On November 5, 2006, he was found guilty of crimes against humanity and sentenced to death by hanging. After an unsuccessful appeal, Hussein was executed on December 30, 2006.

Nguyen Thanh Le, North Vietnamese spokesman at the Paris peace talks, tells reporters that the Honolulu conference reveals that "the position of the United States remains infinitely obstinate." According to the North Vietnamese, the war would continue as long as the United States remained determined to support the "puppet government" in Saigon.

President Lyndon B. Johnson had met with South Vietnamese President Nguyen Van Thieu in Honolulu from July 18 to July 20. At the conference, Johnson reaffirmed his administration's commitment "to defend South Vietnam." Thieu stated that he had "no apprehensions at all" concerning the U.S. commitment. In a joint communique, Thieu further asserted that his government was determined "to continue to assume all the responsibility that the scale of forces of South Vietnam and their equipment will permit," thus tacitly accepting current U.S. efforts to "Vietnamize the war." The two presidents also agreed that South Vietnam "should be a full participant playing a leading role in discussions concerning the substance of a final settlement" to the conflict. Johnson's successor, Richard Nixon, made "Vietnamization" one of the pillars of his Vietnam policy, directing that the combat capability of the South Vietnamese armed forces be improved so that they could ultimately assume full responsibility for the war and U.S. forces could be withdrawn.

And the Devil sent him Anna.

In a Ruidoso, New Mexico, cemetery:


Here lies Johnny Yeast. .
Pardon me
For not rising.

In a Uniontown, Pennsylvania, cemetery:

Here lies the body of Jonathan Blake.
Stepped on the gas
Instead of the brake.

Here lays The Kid.
We planted him raw.
He was quick on the trigger
But slow on the draw.

Anna Hopewell's grave in Enosburg Falls,Vermont

Here lies the body of our Anna -
Done to death by a banana.
It wasn't the fruit that laid her low,
But the skin of the thing that made her go.

On a grave from the 1880s in Nantucket, Massachusetts:

Under the sod and under the trees,
Lies the body of Jonathan Pease.
He is not here, there's only the pod.
Pease shelled out and went to God

In a cemetery in England:

Remember man, as you walk by,
As you are now, so once was I.
As I am now, you soon will be.
Prepare yourself and follow me.

To which someone replied by writing on the
tombstone:

To follow you I'll not consent
Until I know which way you went

Last add, from Boot Hill, in Tombstone, Arizona:

Here lies Lester Moore
One slug from a 44

I'll restrain myself despite the fact that it's Tuesday.  Smoke whatever the hell you like.  But I think people parting with $7+ for anything from the Diesel line are wasting their money considering that buys you base Padrons, CyBs, Illusione Rothchildes, and on and on.  His non-site exclusive stuff is great, IMO.  Ovals, SL Habanos, Connies, Mayimbe, Pinolero, Pinolero maduro.  All fine. 

If you're buying 2nds/overruns, you're getting random 'extra' tobacco, not actually released cigars without a band.  That makes no sense from a business standpoint.  If you can sell something for more, you do.  Print out another band for $0.000001 and apply it, and sell the cigar for 4x as much as you would a 'second'.  That's not to say the 2nds and overruns won't be smokeable and maybe even enjoyable, but spare us the crap about getting something good.

And the MOW Armada (corona, especially) is the worst cigar I've ever had.  I'd rather smoke a cigarette.

Didn't feel like restraining myself.

If you're buying 2nds/overruns, you're getting random 'extra' tobacco, not actually released cigars without a band.  That makes no sense from a business standpoint.  If you can sell something for more, you do.  Print out another band for $0.000001 and apply it, and sell the cigar for 4x as much as you would a 'second'.  That's not to say the 2nds and overruns won't be smokeable and maybe even enjoyable, but spare us the crap about getting something good.

And the MOW Armada (corona, especially) is the worst cigar I've ever had.  I'd rather smoke a cigarette.

Didn't feel like restraining myself.
You know, it's really fitting that they should run an AJ special on Tuesday.

Famous' bid site pisses me off. I've been waiting for a certain box to go up and it was scheduled for yesterday, yesterday comes and they move the bid to start on 7/29. I bet they move it again on the 29th, oh well

Call them and cancel.
If they don't ship what I haven't ordered by tomorrow I'll have FB cancel for me

Timmy B's weekly email deal is up, WOO HOO!
This is one of the BEST offers of the year. These are overruns from AJ Fernandez's factory. They could be any of his blends: San Lotano, Man O' War, Diesel, Ave Maria, etc.... the list goes on and on.

While I can't specify which blend it will be, it's going to be one of AJ's impressive, highly rated, and popular brands.  Might be natural, might be maduro - I cannot cherry pick.  While there is some uncertainty to this, one thing is for sure - you'll get 20 of AJ Fernandez's best for $2 apiece!

20 AJ Fernandez Overrun torpedos (size apprx. 6"x52) just $39.95 plus free shipping
Joe should gobble this one up, morning FB

Can't wait to hear all the idiots talk about the Ovals and SL Habanos they get.

I really just don't like the idea of ordering something with no idea of what you'll be getting.  And if you do happen in to something you like, guess what?  You can't be sure you'll ever get them again.

That's the reason I haven't replaced these. I ordered them when I was a noob, and they're an okay smoke.  I like them.  But no way to know what's coming next, and there are too many cigars out there that are known quantities - even for inexpensive handout smokes.

I got some of the petite coronas a couple years ago because I had a random prepaid Visa gift card or something and they were almost the exact amount I had in my balance.  They're not the worst cigars I've ever had. I suppose I'd say they're worth the dollar or so per stick.  Good for a third or fourth cigar on the golf course when I'm really just looking for anything to smoke.  But for giveaways I like to stick with things assuming the other person will look up the cigar online (though 99.99% of the time, they don't) and try to give away something halfway decent so I don't look like a douche. 

Diesel UCs are perfect for that because they're somewhat big and they look cool.

Agreed, It is better to spend $40 on 5 or 10 good cigars that you know you will smoke rather than on 20 mystery cigars that you may not. If that makes any sense.

I think we have all had this happen you go out whit friends, and some of them smoke cigars , and some don't , after a few drinks the non cigars smoker wants a cigar too , you give them a good cigar and its just a hate crime .

I got some of the petite coronas a couple years ago because I had a random prepaid Visa gift card or something and they were almost the exact amount I had in my balance.  They're not the worst cigars I've ever had. I suppose I'd say they're worth the dollar or so per stick.  Good for a third or fourth cigar on the golf course when I'm really just looking for anything to smoke.  But for giveaways I like to stick with things assuming the other person will look up the cigar online (though 99.99% of the time, they don't) and try to give away something halfway decent so I don't look like a douche. 

Diesel UCs are perfect for that because they're somewhat big and they look cool.

Cold beers*, good cigars, get drunk and have fun.  We all take this too fucking seriously sometimes. 

*Warm beers if Dan's bringing 'em.

True, they can be cheapos, but you want them to taste OK....I have to seriously not like someone to give them a dog turd to smoke.  Thats where CBid works out well, you can get a box or so of something decent for 1.50 to 2.00 a stick and then 3-3.50 stick for general moochers and still have it better than the shit they would have bought.

I got some of the petite coronas a couple years ago because I had a random prepaid Visa gift card or something and they were almost the exact amount I had in my balance.  They're not the worst cigars I've ever had. I suppose I'd say they're worth the dollar or so per stick.  Good for a third or fourth cigar on the golf course when I'm really just looking for anything to smoke.  But for giveaways I like to stick with things assuming the other person will look up the cigar online (though 99.99% of the time, they don't) and try to give away something halfway decent so I don't look like a douche. 

Diesel UCs are perfect for that because they're somewhat big and they look cool.
-- Handout choice depends on context.  If it's a couple of friends herfing, good cigars.  If it's a party, or after the third martini, then no one is capable of paying attention to the cigar.  May as well be cheapos at that point.
True, they can be cheapos, but you want them to taste OK....I have to seriously not like someone to give them a dog turd to smoke.  Thats where CBid works out well, you can get a box or so of something decent for 1.50 to 2.00 a stick and then 3-3.50 stick for general moochers and still have it better than the shit they would have bought.
It's the NJDave sliding scale, I'll have to be on the lookout for declining quality when we smoke together. Really a good gauge of where you stand with him. At the moment he likes me!
Not really....I was just trying to make a good example in front of my sons.

Still waiting for a deal on the Sake Bombs, can't see spending $50/box when the Tat PCRs are $3EA, but I want some

Same here. But as long as I can get Papas Fritas cheaper, the Sake Bombs will have to wait.
Exactly, I was hoping to get one at a shop on Friday but no dice. Picked up a La Jugada Prieto though. The shop used to have all 601/Espinosa stuff but relocated and not fully set back up yet
Sake Bombs are only $44 for box of 10 at Atlantic.  (with VIP)

Nah, that just seems expensive to me for some reason.  It's right in the normal price range for a B&M, but I would think it'd be less online.  $35-$40 and maybe. You can get larger size La Bombas cheaper... it'd be like the Papas Fritas being $10 a piece.

Camacho connies at holts, churchill...6/$20 http://www.holts.com/category.html?id=201748
Or same site bricks of (20) for $60 any size - http://www.holts.com/category.html?id=201799&trail=86665

I like them,  20 can be had for $25 at CI. They are one of the checkout deals. Just put something in your cart and go to checkout.  Add them to your cart then delete the other thing then use the free shipping code. I do it all the time.

Advertising is what I do, I have a general idea.  As 'actors' in a national commercial, I'll still go with more than you with regards to 'playing music'!

It'd be nice but it all comes from the same place in the end.  It's convenient, that's for sure.  I feel like I've asked them about it before and they'll accept it but you have to call them... which kinda defeats the purpose.

Ha, yeah, that's for sure.   Having to actually reach for your card (or call) gives you a few extra minutes to think things through!

EDIT:  But generally speaking, no, these commercial actors are not 'rich'.  It's a hell of a way to grind out a living.
I know it's what you do, that's why I pointed it out.

On average, I net about $75/hour playing music.  That's because of some rare and unique circumstances - namely that one of my bands is very, very good and a lot of rich people know us and book us for weddings, corporate parties, etc. And we only play a few times a year. 

If I was trying to make a living at it, that average would drop to about $10/hour and I'd be busting my ass.  It's feast or famine. If I could put the "good" band on the road, and have us playing every week, we could probably make pretty good money.  But the road will kill you and none of us wants to do it.  We like being the best band you never heard of. 

So yeah, a commercial actor (celebrities don't count) can make more money, if they're getting SAG rates. But break it down per hour invested and it's not that much more.  And I have an easier time getting gigs.

Shiiiit.  You won't have to look hard.  I'm not the best ever at anything.  I just lucked into a band with a couple of really talented players and good chemistry.
TYhis is not may day for posting I guess.  What i was trying to say is Chemistry and rock bands are a match made in heaven.
Shit happens.

Those are posers.  We do the song much better.
Ahhh, chemistry and a rock band!  A match made in heaven!

Yeah but they got paid more.
Not as much more as people would think.

Advertising is what I do, I have a general idea.  As 'actors' in a national commercial, I'll still go with more than you with regards to 'playing music'!

EDIT:  But generally speaking, no, these commercial actors are not 'rich'.  It's a hell of a way to grind out a living.
I know it's what you do, that's why I pointed it out.

On average, I net about $75/hour playing music.  That's because of some rare and unique circumstances - namely that one of my bands is very, very good and a lot of rich people know us and book us for weddings, corporate parties, etc. And we only play a few times a year. 

If I was trying to make a living at it, that average would drop to about $10/hour and I'd be busting my ass.  It's feast or famine. If I could put the "good" band on the road, and have us playing every week, we could probably make pretty good money.  But the road will kill you and none of us wants to do it.  We like being the best band you never heard of. 

So yeah, a commercial actor (celebrities don't count) can make more money, if they're getting SAG rates. But break it down per hour invested and it's not that much more.  And I have an easier time getting gigs.

Ten years ago: Militants in Iraq took hostage an Egyptian diplomat (Mohammed Mamdouh Helmi Qutb), demanding his country abandon any plans it had to send security experts to Iraq. (He was freed after three days of diplomatic efforts.) The Pentagon released newly discovered payroll records from President George W. Bush's 1972 service in the Alabama National Guard, though the records shed no new light on the future president's activities during that summer. Joe Cahill, a founding father of the modern Irish Republican Army, died in Belfast, Northern Ireland, at age 84.

One year ago: With a high-stakes showdown vote looming in the House, the White House and congressional backers of the National Security Agency's surveillance program warned that ending the massive collection of phone records from millions of Americans would put the nation at risk from another terrorist attack. (The next day, the House narrowly voted against halting the NSA program.)

Rigorous Exercise for Over 60
-------------------------

Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty of room
at each side. With a 5-lb potato sack in each hand, extend your arms
straight out from your sides and hold them there as long as you can. Try to
reach a full minute, and then relax. Each day you'll find that you can hold
this position for just a bit longer.

After a couple of weeks, move up to 10-lb potato sacks. Then try 50-lb
potato sacks and then eventually try to get to where you can lift a 100-lb
potato sack in each hand and hold your arms straight for more than a full
minute. (I'm at this level.)

After you feel confident at that level, put a potato in each of the sacks.

Hey there, Shaun.  Smoked an Ortega Wild Bunch 'Island Jim' last night, interesting stick.  Really happy that Cigar King gave me that random assortment of Wild Bunch series cigars when my order went awry a month or so ago.

Yeah I keep hearing good things about Ortegas, still have never smoked one.  Andy sent me one, the SeriesD, I will have to try that.  The Wild Bill seems to be the class favorite tho eh?

I'm not really sure what to make of them.  I love both the Serie D maduro and natural.  I haven't had all of the Wild Bunch series but they almost seem to be more experimental blends released in smaller batches.  Some work, some don't.

Always a blast.  Can't wait for the FIL to ask for some very expensive whiskey and then take it like a shot.  I know, I know, share the good stuff.  Still makes me cringe.  Then someone will start cooking and a jam session will break out.

Oh, I'm sure we'll get out at least one of the nights.  My brother lives here now so we use him occasionally, too.  In-laws are a bit different from my folks, though. They both of course love the kids, but my parents couldn't care any less about me or the wife if the kids are around and would almost rather we leave for the entire time we visit.  Wife's parents are a bit more hands off, and there's always the chance that the FIL would ask to come along if we're going to a movie or out for drinks or something.  Sounds crazy but it's happened before.

You should have checked on a discount ticket. My brother got big discounts a week apart for his twins a week apart. First week was his MIL and 7 days later was our father, the airlines are usually pretty good with these situations.

Another AFoC drive-by:  Flight delayed 4+ hours and my cigars are in my checked baggage.  Oh well, time to go cash in my lunch voucher.  Hope all is well in banterland.
That sucks. Safe travels.
Danke, as I'm in Munich at the moment.
Getting tempted by the Cohiba's and Partegas in Duty-Free?
Not at all.  I just walked past.
So spendy...sure is nice to see all those CCs in person tho!
I just don't have it like that, at the moment.  Last minute flight was $2500.  No cigars for a while.
You should have checked on a discount ticket. My brother got big discounts a week apart for his twins a week apart. First week was his MIL and 7 days later was our father, the airlines are usually pretty good with these situations.

Just curious, but how did they ever 'prove' that you were, in fact, seeking a legitimate bereavement fare?  Couldn't you just use that for every trip?  Or at least once or twice per airline?  Bad karma for sure, just curious...

Got one long ago (12 years) and had to send them a death certificate or copy of the obituary.  They gave me x days to provide it (don't remember time exactly but was adequate) or they will charge your cc the difference back then.

Bad Karma for sure, imagine how my brother felt asking 7 days apart, it sure helped to fly his twins down twice especially since they were CB's neighbors at the time.

Off to Home Depot to get a new garbage disposal.  Guess the seal gave out last night, water everywhere.  Good times!  Seems easier to just get a new one than try to fix the old one.  Really easy to do according to the internet which never, ever holds true.  The old one came out easily enough last night so we'll see.  Back in a bit.  May even stop for a liverwurst sandwich and a beer.

It was all good!  Bitter, citrusy IPA.  Can't say it's something I'd go for all the time but I'd buy it again.  Available fairly cheap at most grocery stores here.

LOL, right... one is a username and password for a site.   Which one?  The sticky doesn't say and I forget.  The other is a series of numbers.  Also couldn't tell you what for.  The last is a list of categories to target for a YouTube ad that we ran about six months ago.  Probably should trash 'em but now I kinda want to see how long they'll stick...
