Big day tomorrow: The blue-surpliced Priests of Science will implant a Watchman device in my heart.
Hoping for clear heads and steady hands among them all.

No probs per se with my ticker. I merely volunteered to be a guinea pig for a medical trial of a widget called a Watchman, which is inserted into heart via groin. Came home yesterday mid-day. Been dealing with bleeding. Otherwise, woke up this morning from a long deep sleep sporting morning wood. Will be doing the high kick soon.
Turns out you have an appendix-like pocket in your left atrium where blood pools. If you fibrillate, clots can form there, then migrate to the brain, which strokes you out. The Watchman is a bit of structure which they plant in the pocket. Up the vein into the heart, pierce into the next chamber, fasten. Then your heart grows a plug over it. This eliminates the pooling place. Once that's done, them pesky blood thinners become irrelevant. Clever fellows.
Yes, hospital food is execrable. Artificial scrambled eggs I kid you not.
Yes, nurses are charming. Winsome Melissa shaved my groinage as tho prepping me for a career in ****. Tiny Devie from Java spent hours tending my bandages there. Love them girls.
Yes, hospital admin is consistently idiotic. I musta repeated: "Read my record" a hundred times. The check out girl, for instance, asked my address, just in case I'd moved since the check in girl asked my address. If you ask why, they begin a sentence with "We have to..." then trail off into pointless. For example: "Why do you wake me up every hour to take blood pressure when you already have this automatic cuff on my arm?" Reply: "We have to..." These people are completely obsessed with numbers. Paper records repeated in computer records.
Home now, looking forward to real coffee & real breakfast. Eggs will crack. A pig will die. Not that I have anything against pigs. I am one. You are what you eat.
Back to rolling gars this afternoon. Gonna put binder m& wrapper in the leaf conditioning chamber now.

such a curmudgeon, @webmost. The redundancy may be irritating, you are entitled to feel that way, but it cuts down on technical and human error. Think of it as them caring whether you live, or die from mistakes, malpractice, or neglect.

Not buying that brand of crazy. I feel confident they can care whether I live or die without asking whether I jumped out of bed, snuck home, packed up, moved to a new address, & snuck back in before next bandage change. Live or die is the bandage change. Asking my email, phone, & addy is billing. Waking the sufferer every hour is malpractice.
Anyways, once I got home I caught up on sleep. Bearswatter knew enough not to wake me.

It's my drying out box. That's where they go right off the table for the wrapper & binder to lose their dampness. Makes the wrapper shrink down tight & smooth, makes the binder tighten the gar up nice & firm, & prevents new rolls from going stonky.
Next step, they go in a regular gar box inside a huge coolidor, where they age for six months or so.
That fine box right there started out as Kuzi's discarded humi.
Happy New Year and don't get caught.

... and here's the same Gold Labels, put away to stash for six months:
This box was conditioned before the gars went in it. I set the prospective stash box inside an otherwise empty coolidor alongside a damp rag for a couple of weeks. Now that the fresh rolls have been dried and tightened in Kuzi's dry box, they go into their long term storage in this newly conditioned gar box, which goes in an aging coolidor which is presently at 64%.
Not that I know what I'm doing. Just hobbying around. But as long as you are hobbying, why not go all cerebral and schidt.
In June, we'll know how it worked out.

It's kinda like your buddy's dog humping your leg; it thinks it's getting some and he has no clue he's getting nowhere, but everybody is laughing at the silly dog.
Basically, hinting that I want to get a free cigar, and believe me, we've seen some creative ways of doing it over the years. Also, it can be a great way to poke fun at someone. Some say it's a curse because it prevents someone from asking a sincere question or asking for an opinion on a cigar for fear of being called a dry-beggar.
But trust me, we know when someone is actually dry-begging, and generally if/when we use the term it's in good clean fun. Now carry on; get your 50 posts in. At this rate, you're even faster than @VegasFrank.

Good luck Davis! Hope all goes well!
Hey think of it this way. You can never get lost….. the government will always know where you are. JK. Good luck brother. Hope all goes well.
and you can watch tv wherever you find yourself. May you have a good experience and recover quickly.

Wow, this is amazing!
I'm VERY interested in what you're doing and very curious as to how these taste?!?
Would you be interested in selling me some?
Sorry in advance if that's not allowed on here.
Pretty sure it's the feds that won't allow it,.
Don't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.
You can always spot a newb; they're so bad at dry-begging...
How is that begging when I'm willing to pay for them??
No need to be rude about it.
Remember the "always assume they're joking" rule...
Also, we've seen plenty of next-level dry-beggars that "say" they will pay for them...
But, in all sincerity, none of it was aimed at you personally; you're a fine fellow.
Well thank you........I never meant any offense towards anyone. Had no idea what I posted was bad form, i'm still learning.
I'm also not sure what dry begging is?
