The cigar community is full of good, caring people (especially the HalfAshers). You never know who you will inspire to follow your path.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Does your wife have a sister?Kip wrote:I believe my process of grandfathering-in a bit of cigar smoking in the house has been fully accepted now. Kristi noticed the ashtray in the window by my desk and asked, "Have you been smoking in the house while I've been at school?" I replied, "Yes...for a week....and if you had to notice by sight alone, it's apparently not a problem." She thought that made sense, and has since even asked if I was going to do the show from the living room.

Re: Big Day
No, although I have no clue where it came from. I recall hearing that given as a measure of comedy when I was a child. It stuck with me, and I think it applied to both so I adapted it.kurtdesign1 wrote:Breathtaking.

Re: Big Day
Things to add to the list:
It's not out of the ordinary to have animals walk down the street - any street. Horses, pigs, donkeys, goats, sebu (a big water buffalo looking beast of burden) might be seen wandering aimlessly on the busiest of thoroughfares.
There are lots of people with machetes here.
...sent by smoke signal from Cigar Country
