The last place you'd want your sticks to be?

Where's the last place you'd want your family to keep your gift of cigars for two weeks in the summer before it's time for you to open your present? (Thoughtful gift but they just don't know any better. LOL)

    Bingo! Not even sure how long they've been in the car but I've been tipped off that I was getting some cigars and just this morning I found out that's where they are. Not surprising to me really. I had to clean up wine stains off the leather seats before because someone thought it was OK to keep a bottle of wine in the car indefinitely. I'll try not to lecture them today. I haven't received them just yet. Of course I'll be looking for beetles the first chance I get. Besides beetles, are they salvageable?

    I'd freeze them, put them in the humi, and wait at least a month. Think about it, what's the temp in the back of a UPS truck during transit? Who knows...fortunately that's not usually for long, but it happens every summer.

    Oh, and it's the lovely thought that counts, right?

    grr,... mumble mumble...freaking beetles...

    Last place I'd like to see my cigars placed is with my exwife...she took a hammer to my humidors and cut all of my sticks in half when I came back from a business trip...that's why she's my exwife.

    My wife wanted to surprise me with some cigars one time and stored them in the vegetable bin of the refrigerator. They picked up the aroma of onions. It was the thought that counted there.

    Most of the time my wife just goes ahead and gives them to me early because she's afraid of something happening to them.

    Off the thread topic but,

    Have you ever wondered why women are considered "the Fair Sex"?

    While I was in nursing school, we touched on the gender subject one day, Nursing being considered a female profession, and women being considered more "right" for the job. Backed up by the textbooks, which were written by women, there was a lengthy discussion about how women were more sympathetic, empathetic, gentle and non-violent creatures motivated by love and tenderness, while men were generally selfish, egotistical, with little sympathy for the needs and feelings of others. Everyone turned to look at me, the only male present, and asked; "Yeah, 'Amos', why is that?"

    I slowly sat full upright, looked around, and said:

    "Lorena Bobbit"

    The class burst into gales of laughter

    "There," I said, "a whole room full of empathetic sympathetic caring women find it hilarious that a woman dismembered her husband for cheating on her. What if a man had cut his wifes breasts off for cheating on him? Every one of you, and all the men in America, would be calling him a monster and clammoring for his head. NO ONE would laugh, at all, ever, not even all those callous unfeeling men. And yet, you still consider yourself the ones with the gentle natures?"

    The discussion, it seems, was over.

    Uh....not that I don't want your time here to be fun but there really is decorum in how we act and I'm thinkin your comment isn't what we look for. I get that some like to say things in fun and things like that but the people here from everything I've seen and read from them might back me up....there are other forums that post things like that and you might hunt them down and join...I've never enjoyed that kind of banter and your comment sounded like something I'd hear from a 13 year old...just sayin.
