Mother F'r, went to make me a turkey sandwich and an entire untouched half of the turkey breast was cut off the remaining car us so asked the warden if she had already sliced it up for sandwiches.......  No, I sent that home with the neighbors to make sandwiches with. :o :o :o. WTF  ???   Wait a Fuk'n minute we ate almost an entire half turkey for lunch then you sent them home with the other half breast ???   Well we have enough left for a sandwich each.  Chit, did you send them each a bottle of wine and a half gallon of vodka too?
i got grief from the warden for buying a 21lb turkey(OK it was the free one from the supermarket - if you spent $400 in the previous 4 weeks).  But i have leftover turkey for sandwiches, for soup for turkey salad. 3 people and 21 lbs of turkey, I like me my leftovers.  she always gets the smallest turkey she can find.  not his year! 8)

Not my favorite vendor but they do have some different stuff.

Today Only Code blackfriday
Tried looking through their site a bit ago, but they had so many things popping up over and over again that I eventually just gave up.
And a lot of things they are 30% too high on to start with.
Agreed, another reason I eventually gave up.
But as was said before, not a bad resource for some real boutique items that you often can't find on line or in stores.  They also have one of the better cigar of the month clubs, with cigars you really haven't tried and that aren't in house "B" sticks.  Only better club is the one Mr. Mayor tapped into....can't remember the name off hand.
And by the way, I have no idea what you're referring to here.
When we were at the lounge the other week, you said you had gotten some really good samplers  for twenty some bucks that contained Sobremesa and some other new top end sticks.
Ahhh.  But they're mystery sticks each month.  $20 includes 4 sticks and free shipping:

http://www.2guyscigars.com/Cigar-Authority-Care-Package-411111/
There's another site I get almost daily e-mails from, but don't seem to find a lot of actual deals.
I happen to listen to their podcast, even though they're the competition... Once I actually start recording mine.  ;)  Anyhoo, this care package is really good if you want to smoke along while listening.  I recently got a special edition La Gloria Cubana that was over 12 years old.  Also got my Gueguanse from there.  Only been doing it for a couple of months but have gotten some interesting sticks.
I will check that out so I will no what not to expect from your podcast ;)

Morning men.  Anyone else find it strange that the Small Batch email promotions contain no links to the actual deals and web page?  Or maybe it's just me.
Morning Bean, hope you had a nice Thanksgiving.

I don't get the small Bach emails.
You're not missing much today.  Their weekend deal is spend a lot of $$ and get various boutique samplers thrown in for free.
Good morning Bean
Morning NFM.  You're at work as well?
Yes sir, pizza just got delivered so I'm trying to get my money's worth into my stomach.  How was your Thanksgiving?
Very good.  We didn't give away our leftovers.
+1 And we're commies to boot.

If I had bought a 21 pound turkey then the neighbors (her friends not so much mine) would have had 12 pounds to take home instead of 6 to go with the 1/2 chocolate and 1/2 pecan pie they took with them.

Once again the fools don't fail to amaze me with their bullshit Black Friday chaos shopping mobs.  Nothing new about Black Friday has been recognized for many years but this insanity now days is sickening.
  I was out of the house early this morning to go to Lowes at 6:30am. they had LED light bulbs for $0.99, ad potted poinsettias for $0.99.  Also picked up some GE 300 count LED christmas lights for $30 off a set for $19.99.  Here is the beauty of this strategy.  Everyone else is at Best Buy or Walmart, fighting their way around the store. Me, I am one of 6 or 7 shoppers with 12 people to wait on me.  no lines, no hassles was on my way home with everything I wanted, plus another 5% off since i used the Lowes card, at 7:05am.  door to door 39 minutes.
Good thinking.  I bet no one is at the grocery stores either.
not really Shop rite has some Black Friday deals Lobsters $6.99 lb, Talenti gelato 3 containers for $5, some other stuff.

Temps have dropped 20 deg in the last two hours here.  I guess it's finally winter here.

Feeling much better today. Sunshine and dry helps. Not to mention being in a non-commie state.

Happy Black Friday to everyone....!  Well my auction cigars finally made it.  Total price with shipping $53.00.
5 Pack of CLE Conn Corona
1 La Gloria Gilded Age (I just wanted to try it since I'm a sucker for new sales pitches.)
1 262 Ideology Box Pressed (no idea what the hell this is, I must have been drunk that night.)
2 Acid Subculture Mantra (I see allot of people bidding on this one, so I didn't want to be left out.)
1 Four Kicks Sublime (I see allot of you guys smoking this one)
1 La Campina Robusto (Cheap.  I've had one before and thought it was ok.)
2 Acid Toast (Again, allot of people bid on this one so I wanted to give it a try.)
3 Inferno Toro (I know I'm weird, but so far I like the Inferno.)
2 Aging Room M356 Rondo (Again, I just wanted to try one of the Aging Rooms, probably not one of the best thou.)

In order to get the glare off of the cigars I had to photograph them in low light.  They are really not green.
I enjoy the four kicks myself, but I detest the Acid toast.  Just cause a lot of people bid on something don't make it good.  See Wikipedia on Lemmings.   8)
I believe it's more about my curiosity to see why so many people are buying a certain produce.  I also bought 2 of them because I was afraid that if I liked it, I'd be pissed that I didn't buy 2.  But I didn't buy 3 because I was afraid that if I didn't like it, I didn't want to be stuck with 3.  See how I put allot of deep thought into buying an Acid cigar... :)

It's been raining here.  I guess I was lucky to have burned that turkey up on the bbq grill yesterday. If I would have burnt it up today while cooking in the rain, it's might have been upsetting...?
