It's Tuesday again! In between insults we'll occasionally discuss cigars.  Join in and perhaps learn something along the way. Warning: don't proceed if you have thin skin but don't be afraid to post either... And welcome aboard!

Sister had a decent offer yesterday with the MOW's so she is probably done for a week or so and CI forgot what a decent offer looks like.  Holts seems to be struggling for one decent offer per month these days.  Famous is still Famous with occasional scattered decent offers.  The Page is just a slip-one-in occasionally.

I think the rest of them just quit pretending to have good offers.

Today is Tuesday, July 25, the 206th day of 2017. There are 159 days left in the year.

Today's Highlight in History:

On July 25, 1956, the Italian liner SS Andrea Doria collided with the Swedish passenger ship Stockholm off the New England coast late at night and began sinking; 51 people - 46 from the Andrea Doria, five from the Stockholm - were killed. (The Andrea Doria capsized and sank the following morning.)

On this date:

In 1593, France's King Henry IV converted from Protestantism to Roman Catholicism.

In 1866, Ulysses S. Grant was named General of the Army of the United States, the first officer to hold the rank.

In 1917, Nikon Corp. had its beginnings with the merger of three optical manufacturers in Japan.

In 1934, Austrian Chancellor Engelbert Dollfuss was assassinated by pro-Nazi Austrians in a failed coup attempt.

In 1946, the United States detonated an atomic bomb near Bikini Atoll in the Pacific in the first underwater test of the device.

In 1952, Puerto Rico became a self-governing commonwealth of the United States.

In 1957, Tunisia became a republic.

In 1960, a Woolworth's store in Greensboro, North Carolina, that had been the scene of a sit-in protest against its whites-only lunch counter dropped its segregation policy.

In 1975, the musical "A Chorus Line" opened on Broadway at the Shubert Theatre, beginning a run of 6,137 performances.

In 1984, Soviet cosmonaut Svetlana Savitskaya (sah-VEETS'-kah-yah) became the first woman to walk in space as she carried out more than three hours of experiments outside the orbiting space station Salyut 7.

In 1992, opening ceremonies were held in Barcelona, Spain, for the Summer Olympics.

In 2000, a New York-bound Air France Concorde crashed outside Paris shortly after takeoff, killing all 109 people on board and four people on the ground; it was the first-ever crash of the supersonic jet.

Ten years ago: A presidential commission urged broad changes to veterans' care that would boost benefits for family members helping the wounded, establish an easy-to-use website for medical records and overhaul the way disability pay was awarded. The bullet-riddled body of one of 23 South Koreans held hostage in Afghanistan by Taliban kidnappers was found; eight other captives were released. Pratibha Patil (PRUH'-tee-bah puh-TIHL') was sworn in as India's first female president.

Five years ago: President Barack Obama embraced some degree of control on the sale of weapons but also told the National Urban League in New Orleans he would seek a national consensus on combating violence. NBC announced it had topped the $1 billion mark in advertising sales for the upcoming Olympic Games in London, topping the $850 million in ad sales for the Beijing games in 2008.

One year ago: On the opening night of the Democratic national convention in Philadelphia, Bernie Sanders robustly embraced his former rival Hillary Clinton as a champion for the same economic causes that enlivened his supporters, signaling it was time for them to rally behind her in the campaign against Republican Donald Trump. The FBI said it was investigating how thousands of Democratic National Committee emails were hacked (Wikileaks had posted emails suggesting the DNC had favored Clinton over Sanders during the primary season).

Anymore they are so rare, they feel like mistakes or low volume teasers more than good deals...
I remember when CI would offer new introduction cigars for very good prices, particularly on the Jam, which would often showcase new, different and even special release items.

I think his first promotion put him near the top of the 5V brand, so I'm guessing he had little to do with jam pricing in that role.

now here is incentive.
Yea, another one to file in the good intentions/wishful thinking file.
Besides, my arms are too short.
To wash dishes?
if there was someone in front of me showing her appreciation, my arms would be too short to do dishes too.
Exactly. And I've got a belly to contend with also. But I'd be willing to give it a shot.

Having a hotel waffle this morning
remember to spray the waffle iron, so it doesn't stick.
Did you ever make a waffle or put down toast, in a hotel, and have somebody else walk off
with it?  I hate when that happens....

"So more and more, the courses that I teach on race have become courses in which I expect my students to engage in the hegemonic power of whiteness,” said Sealey, who’s taught courses such as “Black Lives Matter” and “Critical Race Theory.”  This is straight from the Jesse Jackson/Al Sharpton school of build-a-career by searching for and building up our differences.
