I was wondering the same thing. Actually, I forgot my glasses in the other room and I read "golf show" as "got snow".

I think you're correct. I definitely took advantage of my second day off and slept in. I was watching Dexter: Original Sin until about 3:30.

Upon putting my glasses on, I see there was a show AND snow. Looks to not be a TV thing or Dave wouldn't be so concerned about the roads.

Another $20 cigar from EPC. Sheesh!

I'm just an old guy with decent cigar taste and on a pension.... :-[
Didn't know that I'd see the day when EPC and AJF releases would outprice Saka.
What's next, Padron and Fuente?
I haven't had a chance yet, but the AJ stick will be coming out your way soon. It's a fine cigar, but I still prefer the El Pulpo Culebra. Speaking of El Pulpo, they have a lancero being released immanently which should also be tasty. I hear on good authority it still doesn't beat the Culebra.

For some strange reason, haven't tried the Culebra yet... other vitola's are pretty tasty. Come to think of it, I've never had a Culebra anything.

It's such a gimmicky looking stick that I can't blame you. Except in this case, it's my favorite El Pulpo.

If cigars are supposed to subconsciously represent penises, I don't want one with Peyronie's disease.

I don't know about all that. I just know the El Pulpo Culebra has fantastic flavor, and burns and draws beautifully.

Morning, boyos. Golf show in a little while. Hoping the roads are decent, had a snow/ice/rain mix come through overnight.
Do you mean a golf Expo or a TV show?
I was wondering the same thing. Actually, I forgot my glasses in the other room and I read "golf show" as "got snow".
Apologies, golf expo. Comes around every February, the unofficial start to the season for me.

Snow is supposed to start shortly but then it looks like it turns to rain later and rain all day tomorrow too.

Don't ask me about what's in my pants, that's not your concern.
My dad went with me, we always go. He's hoping some exercises he's been working on will help him get back on the course this year for more than 2 rounds.
