Damn, I would like to......... that 50 year old myself.

NEW YORK --
 
 Former Fox News Channel anchor Gretchen Carlson is suing network chief executive Roger Ailes, claiming she was fired after refusing his sexual advances.

Fox News representatives did not immediately return requests for comment on the lawsuit, which was filed Wednesday in Superior Court in New Jersey's Bergen County.

Carlson, the former host of a daytime show at Fox, alleged a pattern of discriminatory behavior at Fox.

She says she was fired in June. She says that happened nine months after Ailes told her that "you and I should have had a sexual relationship a long time ago."

The 50-year-old Carlson was Miss America in 1989. She spent 11 years at Fox

No bargain pricing, but Crowned Heads Las Calaveras EL 2016  Boxes and Cigar Sampler 4-CT now available at Atlantic.

4/$40 is about what I expected for that.
About what I would expect but not what I would expect to pay.

Well, they will sell out even at this price. They usually command $10 a stick. Not many coupon opportunities. I'll probably get a sampler at some point. Let me know if you see a "deal".  ;)
I wouldn't hold my breath.  4,500 boxes total between the three vitolas, and 2,000 of the four vitola sampler.

Brought in some pork roll and cheese for lunch, left over from grilling on Monday.  Yum.
I am thinking maybe a Subway sandwich but that is subject to change.
Sweet onion, chicken, teriyaki.
NO!

Turkey with pepper jack cheese, spinach, peppers and a little brown mustard on Honey Oat Bread
Quite frankly my dear Subway sandwiches are not worth a  chit.
Agree, not all that great of a sandwich. And then there's the whole Jared thing.  Ewwww....

Wonder how many times he gets asked if he'd like the six inch or the foot long.  :o
I doubt he rarely gets asked. ;)
Maybe he only gets both shown to him to tease?
Either way, I hope he's getting it multiple times per day.
And I guess you prefer it occur without lube.
And with all manner of prison objects.

Oh well, I still got plenty of 2015's which are not all that great to make me want to bite on 2016's.

They will come around (unless the FDA Rape comes into play) last year we got the 4-pak samplers in the mid $20 range.

You talking La Imperiosa? I don't recall these in a sampler before.

...and imfo, the La Imperiosa did not come near the original release of the Las Calaveras. I've got 3/4 of a box waiting for hopeful improvement. So far, nothing noticeable... Marginal at best.

Yes, my mistake it was the La Imperiosa's I was thinking of but I have some Las Calaveras also and they were not samplers.  Better than the La Imperiosa's though but they have improved some over time.  Tried one a week or 2 ago.  My Las Calaveras might be 2014's I will have to check when I get home, might smoke one if not tooo hot again today.  By the time you add the shipping at Atlantic you are around $11.50 each for 4 or $10.80 if you try 8..

@ Raz - get-um while congress is on vacation!

Not a bad deal these days, at Target Sports USA

Federal 5.56mm XM855 NATO 62 Grain FMJ 420 rds on Stripper Clips in Ammo Can

Special $210.00
FREE SHIPPING INCLUDED
My rifle has a slow twist (1:9), so the higher price for the heavier bullet doesn't buy me anything.  I stock up when I get the 55gr at around $0.40@.  My next such rifle will have a faster twist and a longer barrel.
Just re-barrel it.
But then I don't have an excuse to buy another gun.

But you don't have the money for a new AR anyway so just what difference does it make at this time?

The 2014 LC is the blend the La Imperiosa was supposed to mimic... and was better than the '15 for me.

I thought "hunting rifle" was next on the list... not that you couldn't hunt with another AR. Does he already have a .308?  ;)

For that matter, I don't have the money for the barrel, and if I buy the barrel, I don't have the money for the ammo.  Everything has a right time.

Four Kicks offered three different samplers before this one.  As you said, the La Imperiosa 4 vitola, Four Kicks Six Shooter sampler ( 2 Headley Grange, 2 JD Howard and 2 Four Kicks) and a Headley Grange vitola sampler of 6.   Famous has a four or eight sampler that they assembled.

Hunting rifle and scope are paid for. Just looking for the right deal on a pre-2006 Winchester model 70 in .270 WSM.
