Got a few Kristoffs, some sumatra and some maduro. Also picked up a Mac Vintage 1997 to give it another try. Got an Oliva Connie and a V #4. Never had the V #4 but I am REALLY looking forward to it.
I got some business cards the USO had made for me so people could call about having a cigar
Then I got an AWESOME three pack bomb from Beatnic. It contained: 3 cigars rolled in Little Havana on private consignment, by the Cuban born Emilio Perez. African Wrapper, Nic. Filler. They look awesome and I can't wait to smoke one! I am debaiting on pulling that bad boy out on Tues, eventhough I'm sure I should wait at least a week.
Me and JoeyJoe had a trade set up; something went awry and his end got lost in the mail. So instead of forgetting about like I told him to, or just re-sending his end, he ups the ante and sends me an Antano, 262, Padilla '68 along with the rest of the deal, some of which have some heavy age on them
At any rate, Joey, I dunno when I can get the ordnance, but you've got a target on your back
Well this day started out as every Saturday does. Head to work, grind it out and head home. Wash, rinse, and repeat. But today I was surprised. I got to work and there was the boss waiting at the door. He handed me a sheet of paper and asked for me to head to the office. I'm thinking wth did I get pinned for now. So I pulled up a chair and asked whats up. He informed me of a raise and if it didn't get any better...in his other hand he surprised me with a nice 5fer of Gurkha Assassin's Robustos. Now why can't my weekends always start this way.

That is one helluva way to kick it off!
I got three packages today: one was my skull and cross bones... Rug (damn tile floors in shipping containers!)
Two was from RCY and included a pair of each: 5 Vegas 'A'; Liga Privada Dirty Rat (I said the box looked cool and I wanted to know what kind they were, by the time I tried to set up a trade he'd already sent me some to try); Padilla Series '68; and Camacho 08/22 (one of my favorite cigars).
Three was from LetsgowithBob and contained (this is NOT an all inclusive list): 5 Vegas Limitada 2009; a Ruination (another big hitter for me!); and a RP Olde World Reserve (I've wanted to try this one for a while); plus some other sticks to remain nameless!
The only thing that wasn't packed Excelently was my damn rug. WallyWorld.com things a rug is gonna make it 3 continents away wrapped in paper?!?!?! Seriously?
I got an AF Hemingway classic and a RP cameroon especial. I've been wanting to try the Hemingway for a long time and the RP was cheap. I will try them soon. This morning I found a really good deal on Gurkha Centurians, so I got 6. I am really looking forward to these. I hope they are good.
Couldn't make the herf today, but on the plus side I picked up a new 33 qt cooler. Got it washed and rinsed, and now it's sitting with some baking soda in it to absorb any residual plastic smell. I'll throw some cedar in it tomorrow along with some beads.
Today I got three shirts from sister site: Group Therapy, Face with 'gar, and button down.
Plus the box of Pioneer Valley Especials that I completly forgot was comming with it.
Then one of my buddies gave me the 2011 Perelman's, and my half of a box split of Cain 'F' Nubs (I LOVE these), and Kopi Luwak's (never had them, or really liked infused cigars, figured I'd try them out).
Welp... I finally decided to have some retail therapy today to relieve some stress
The Cat got new food, a new tassle toy, a new mouse on a string and a run-through tunnel (And nail clippers, but she doesn't know that yet) I got some Dex-Cool for the car and these babies... I love the B&M that's about 10 minutes away, they had some t52s and some "Flying Pigs" but I have to have some kind of budget!
Cool thing is the whole top row was in a single grab bag for only $30 the rest I bought because they look yummy!
Nothing too big. Been working pretty hard in school lately, trying to juggle everything, and the wife just said last week out of the blue "You should buy yourself a bunch of nice cigars, you deserve it." I was on the phone with Tim Blythe about 2 seconds later.
10 Bahia Trinidad Corona Grande (my front side golf course cigar)
10 LHCOF Salomon (my back side golf course cigar)
I used to play more in a month than I do in a year now. Two kids and another on the way will do that to you. I already have a few of these in stock so I should be set for the rest of the golf season.
Savinelli Tortuga pipe, rusticated, bent billiard style. One tin each of McClelland Blackwoods Flake, Davidoff Flake Medallions, Dunhill Flake, MacBaren Scottish Mixture.
