Thank AMGFan, he started it! No worries, fellas, it's great to spread a little, "love of the leaf" sentiment to my bro's across the nation. I wish I had something to send AMG, but what the hell do you send that guy?!?! Golf *****? Ammo? Scotch??

Jon, you are a class act! I think we all need to head over to your pad for a weekend of golf, shooting and cigars! Great looking humi, can't wait to see it filled!

Since we all love pics, here's a couple of a recent delivery:

Dude, I love the Big Smoke! Haven't been in over 10 years, but it's always a good time! Bought a Daniel Marshall humidor which he loaded with robustos since they were packing it up for the night.

Sad to say, I won't be there but hope you have a good time.

^^ Jrock.. nice shipment.. I like those My Father's..

Had a chance to smoke the 5 Vegas "A" last night.. I have to say I was impressed. Had a rib eye and shrimp for dinner, beers with a couple of hotties, then went to a place called Tap's for a smoke. Paired the 5 Vegas with a Knob Creek Bourbon neat. Worked well together..
Full Bodied, smoked really good. Thank you JRock.. Much appreciated for sure. Cheers and have a good weekend guys. Bill

SoCal...hope you had a good time in Vegas...my flying wings are clipped for now...too much work...house renovation has got my life upside down...and pregnant wife (it's going to be a girl BTW).

From yesterday @ Bloomingdale Golf Course...mucked up the front nine...the stimpmeter was reading 12 and getting the putting range took me 8 holes to figure out...45 front and 37 back...F it...had 3 great cigars in the process.

Pre-Round Tabak and coffee...


Front Nine...Feral...becoming a favorite of mine...aging it helps big time for me.


Back Nine...Padron 46yr...made shooting 2 over on the back so much sweeter.

Congrats still working on my first.

You guys make cutting back on the smokes much harder. I smoke one and on some occasions two a day since I work from home. How often do you guys indulge? My wife absolutely hates it, says I stink like an old man.

Jon, congrats on the baby! I guess we'll ALL have to light one up in her honor!

Bill and George, looks like you guys enjoyed the shmokes. Those AJ Fernandez blends are pretty damn good, huh?!?! Just takin' a page from AMGfan's notebook....

kustom2k1, remember, the best part about kids is makin'em! I personally smoke maybe 1/day or every-other day. Depends on what's going on. All my gf's have complained about the smell. Most people do. However, many women have come up to me and told me how much they love the smell of a cigar because it reminds them of their father/grandfather.

They are fantastic! Thank you once again. I will be honest when I was really in the dating scene way back when I use to enjoy some cigars with my ladies all the time. I only dated a few girls that honestly could not stand it but everyone either enjoyed one with me or did not mind. Its funny because I have seen alot of people who I never would of guessed smoke cigars. It just goes to show you anyone can love the nicer little things in life

Fuente Gran Reserva

I ended up getting home a bit earlier today then most days. Was doing some odds and ends stuff in the garage and with the cars along with some organizing and enjoyed a Fuente Gran Reserva Not a hateful stick at all. Great size and perfect cigar if you want a decent cigar but dont want to spend forever puffing one. I had to get one in this evening due to not having time this weekend(I teach at a College on Saturday and Sunday will be filled with family obligations.)
Any smokers?-fuete.bmp

Happy Thanksgiving guys. Hope you were able to enjoy some great cigars with your family and friends. I had a My Father Le Bjiou and it was excellent with some 25-year Armagnac.

Sounds like everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!! Very happy to hear that! Ended up having a fantastic dinner with 22 family members and some new friends. A wonderful day of food, family, football and being thanksful to be alive. Of course we cannot forget the wild family debates of politics and who can cook better

Ended up enjoying 2 cigars. San Lotano of course but I also picked up a Bugatti CigarLet me just say I hope that cigar has no relation to Bugatti SpA. I was not much of a fan of it at all.Any smokers?-bugatti.bmp

San LotanoAny smokers?-lotano-xxx.bmp
Ended up picking up some Liga Privada #9's. Here in NY we are only allowed to purchase 2 per customer and they cannot be the same style as well.Any smokers?-number-9.bmp
