    @OmgFrigginMike there's always this too if you wanna learn the finer intricacies of cigars, life, political incorrectness, and basic ássholery. Usually stars around 8 p.m. eastern time.

    Another member has invited me to that as well but I felt a little nervous/anxious joining in on a zoom where I know nobody PLUS I’m at work for 4 more hours today. Maybe I’ll try to on a day off when the lady is running errands but today’s not the day.

    Don't worry, we like fresh meat! We just hang out and chew the fat, sometimes talk about cigars, often about whatever.

    Hello, Mike. Plan on spending 4-5 dollars per stick on smokes in the ppassable category. 5 Vegas is something you will outgrow quickly.

    Now I want to smoke a 5Vegas, I think I have some A or AAAs in the Iris boxes. If I recall they were good yardwork smokes.

    I would send you one but I’m not old enough(enough posts) to trade/play in the shenanigans yet.

    What exactly do you mean by yardwork smokes? As in you don’t sit back relax and pair it with a drink or it’s so garbage you use it to feed the yard? 😅

    Pretty much every night, usually lasts a couple of hours, I got off just now to have some dinner after one smoke, but there were three guys on when I left, some starting their second cigar.

    Yard work for me is usually mowing, pruning trees and bushes, raking leaves, hanging laundry, gardening, splitting wood etc. I don't have much time for sitting back and relaxing and no longer drink.

    Haha I know what hard work is I just didn’t think it was such a literal phrase. I quit drinking too. Been sober a little over 10 years now.

    If that is the one in Destin, I remember seeing it some time ago while visiting a sporting goods store. It is a little over an hour drive from my house. I am between Pace and Milton in an area called Pea Ridge.

    Welcome @xHTx You have come to the right place if you’re looking for cigar continuing education. Peruse several threads and ask questions at your leisure. You will find a wide variety of palates, tastes, knowledge and sarcasm amongst the many forum members.

    A good cigar and the open road solve most problems.
