Re: What are you reading?

The purpose of the State of the Nation Project is to provide an overall assessment of how the country is doing on a wide range of factors that we, and the American people, believe are important. Below is a summary of our report: 37 measures across 15 topics. We report each measure in two different ways (where possible): our national trend and the percentage of middle- and high-income countries we outperform (a higher number is always better). All of these measures were supported by a supermajority of the authors and the ones with p next to the measure name were also supported by a supermajority of the general public. In the Executive Summary and topic sections, we also discuss how our international ranking is changing over time and provide more discussion of the conclusions we draw from these data.

This is an article, that has information, that does not have to be taken as anything more than informational. I'm hoping that nothing comes of this as I do not want to see additional increases in Cigar prices.https://halfwheel.com/trump-official-talks-removing-nicaragua-from-free-trade-agreement/447096/
Yeah, this has actually been going on for awhile. It’s one reason a lot of the manufacturers are putting operations in other countries. Ortega can’t live much longer and hopefully whoever replaces him actually has their country’s best interest in mind.
It's going to be his half-witted son, Daniel W. Ortega.
The only thing worse than a dictator is the son of a dictator.
It was a joke referring to the bush presidents 😂

Re: 2025 MKE Herf
My first thought was to prefer the one after Father's Day because I will be celebrating Juneteenth on the 20th and will already have that day off but that could actually work against me in that it might create competition for that three-day weekend within my small work group for scheduling time off.
I shall remain neutral.
Re: What is in your pipe?

Agree, very nice. Are those durable?
Not in my experience. Hot to hold, sure to break soon. I used to smoke them sometimes in Germany, never got more than a few smokes out of them. On the other hand, I'm not as careful or caring as Stubble is with my pipes. You can tell, because my pipes always look as if they'd been smoked before.

I don't use coolers. I use a super fancy wood humidor. I'm refined. 😁

Re: What is in your pipe?
Not if you drop them. Stems break easily. All mine are shorter than they used to be. And to prevent them from sucking the moisture out of your lips wax the last inch of the stem. Often they won't pass a pipe cleaner, so throw them in the fire on the coals and let them cool slowly. Despite all this I like them.
Re: Whatcha smokin this morning?
Don't laugh, everyone of these (10 pack) has an a cap that comes loose. However they were aged at the factory.
