Morning CarolinaDave, SchoolDazeTony and VacayFishy.
Morning Dave. I had an interesting smoking experience on Sunday. First I tried the 601 Kryptonite, was ok. Next I had my first JD Howard and loved it, will have to smoke another but it was much higher in the line for me that I expected
Hadn't I given you one [JDH] in the past?

no
I agree that they're good.

Guess it is time to get moving, countertop folks are supposed to arrive between 10:30 and 11:00 to measure and lay out the cuts.  Need to see what the contractor has FUCT up since Monday afternoon before they get there.

He just can't quite understand the concept that we are paying the bills and he will do it our way and based on our construction sequencing as opposed to doing whatever whenever and in his "better idea" (the way he thinks it should look) ways.

He took it upon himself to move two electrical outlets over the weekend before we decided on a cabinet height so now he has to move them again.  Meanwhile that cabinet and bookshelves were supposed to be the last item and he has not finished the first nor the second and third items yet.
this is the 'cheap' contractor?
Good work ain't cheap, cheap work ain't good.
He ain't that cheap!  His work is good once he does what I told him to do.

And I got news for you the more expensive ones are no better.

You've given me a lot of cigars but not a JDH and I never sought them out because Dave mentioned they were his least favorite of the CH lines and our tastes align pretty well. I was pleasantly surprised and will look to pick some more up
So I finally steered you wrong....there goes the reputation.
Las Mareas has since replaced them as least favorite.  Then again, that's least favorite Crowned Heads....so not like they are overall bad.
After smoking one, I'm really surprised you don't like the JDH more
Haven't had one in a while. Time to revisit.

Hope you had an ice scraper or an old cassette tape to help with the windows.

Thought for Today: "Life was meant to be lived, and curiosity must be kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life." — Eleanor Roosevelt, American first lady (born this date in 1884, died 1962).

Good morning Dave's, Scott, and Tony. Fought with the garbage man this morning. Gotta find another collector.
I wonder where Dean buried the body.

So, one of our new Information Risk Managers is named Cherry Quick.

Doesn't that just tell you everything you need to know about her parents?
