Can't Count On Nobody No More

in Trades, Passes and Bombs
Especially if they say they're counting to five...

Somehow, at the Chicago herf, @kingjk729, Jim, got overlooked when it came to the coffee being passed out.  So when it came time to send him a lb., he offered to do a 5x5 trade.  Stupid me, after all this time, I still believe that when I open the box there'll be 5 cigars in there.

As Jim wrote in his note, he learned math before Common Core, so he's bad at math.  :-)

    I only see 5. Maybe you need to drink more water?

    Plenty of my faves in there Peter ..... Hopefully a few new sticks for you to try..... The Jackal, Partagas Green Label, and the Viaje are stellar in my book. Enjoy

    Still yet to try the Jackal, the rest I aprove of, as a new tester of the stoggies. Once I smoke the Jackal I will probably look like an adhd kid trying out for gymnastics because I will like it so much. Until then I will believe what yall tell me. I have jekylls... well 2 left. I like peter getting good new treats.
     great hit @kingjk729

    ? for @peter4jc Is coffee bean roasting a business for you or a hobby so you can enjoy the best? Just curious because I enjoy a good cup of java and a cigar in the morning also.

    @Guitarded... It started as a hobby over 15 years ago.  When I gave some beans to a few buddies for an unbiased opinion they asked if I'd roast some for them to buy.  The rest, as they say, is history.  So it's still a hobby that covers half of what I need to live on in my semi-retirement/self-employed lazy-ass lifestyle.  I have a commercial roaster in my basement that lets me help make a few dozen customers' coffee world a more beautiful place... I'd be honored to do so for you, sir!

    Well, having been bombed to smithereens because of an addy in the wild, I'd suggest a PM.  I'll make sure the current newsletter gets to you too.  Hehehe...

    Are you implying if I put my addy up I may get bombed?? Perfect. Humi is small but I think I know how to return fire. Michael Worton 505 Valverde Dr. SE Albuquerque NM 87108. Nice website for the beans, easy to navigate and prices seem reasonable.
