Re: Happy mother's day to all the mothers who take care of us.
Got to spend a few hours with my mother in law last night and a few with my mom today. Now get to spend the rest of the day with the greatest woman in my life!

Today's commute smoke graciously provided by @OutdoorsSmoke_21191 . Thanks, Jeff or George or W, whichever you are.Looks like you forgot to iron it after it came out of the dryer 😂 jk, I know that those pictures in the sun make these cigars look like that hahaha.
It got a little beat up in the ziploc it's been sharing with many other cigars. I should have separated it from the sticks with cellos but I didn't.. the first half smoked beautifully, the second should also on the ride home.

Re: What are you reading?
"We live in a paradoxical time: despite the proliferation of critical thinking courses in schools and universities, our public discourse has never been more dominated by inflexible certainties, tribal allegiances to dubious ‘facts’, and a profound aversion to questioning our own beliefs. In an age where certainty is currency, doubt has become a radical act.
"Our social media ecosystems reward conviction, not contemplation. Politicians trumpet certainties rather than explore complexities. Even our educational institutions often teach critical thinking as a weapon to dismantle others’ arguments rather than a tool for examining our own. The skill we most desperately need is the very one we’ve neglected to cultivate: the ability to hold our own certainties in suspension."
