Title: 7/4/2016 - Independence Day
Post by: CigarBanter on July 04, 2016, 12:00:36 AM
Happy 4th of July!  Today, let's enjoy our families, cookouts, libations and cigars too.  We bitch and moan about cigar deals, commies, and even each other.  But thank goodness we get to bitch and moan because we're free to do so in this country.
