In the past, whenever I received a box from someone, I found a funny pic to go with a silly little story to express my gratitude. Well, not this time.

As many of you aware, I had a total knee replacement on Friday. By the end of the day Saturday, I had a total of TWELVE packages on the front porch! I am completely stunned and flabbergasted!

Words like “family” and “brother” (think Harleys & Hulk Hogan) are tossed around in our society to the point that they are, in my opinion, watered down. But not here at CigarP ass! I knew that when those words were used here, they carried a lot of heartfelt emotion and meaning, but I had not experienced the full weight. Now, I definitely have! In my short time here, I have made better friends than I have “in real life”! Thank you letting me part of this community, and I truly hope that I can make a positive contribution, and live up to the high standards I have seen here.

Also, the worst part (to me) about joint replacement is the sheer boredom. As has been the case since I started smoking cigars, I look up every stick I get so I can enter it into my spreadsheet/journal. The info I record includes construction (wrapper, binder, etc), vitola, origin, blender, factory, and any other notes. Then I put my own band on it and print a label with from who and when I received it. Y’all have given me not just a cigar, but the research and story that goes with it. That process is the single best way for me to combat the boredom, and I appreciate it more than I can express!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Don't miss out on this epic:

 
Maybe you can write up a few cigar reviews while you are laid up!

My “reviews” leave a lot to be desired!

They consist of:
- Damn that’s good
- That’s pretty good
- That’s just OK
- That’s not so good
- Throw it down, stomp on it, and throw it away before the dog accidentally sniffs it!

😎😎😎

@Dawgie. That is cute you think that.

The silence fell, a fragile peace,
A breath between the thunder's cease.
He stepped outside, his eyes upturned—
The sky, though scarred, no longer burned.

A bird sang once, the air seemed clear,
He let himself forget the fear.
But in the hush, a distant sound—
A low, slow moan beneath the ground.

Too soon the earth began to cry,
A flash again across the sky.
He thought it done—how hope can lie.
The bombing paused. It did not die.

hahahaha. I think some no frills reviews might be just what the doctor ordered! Plus, we can all live vicariously through the beautiful stogies you are enjoying.

That is the same rating system I use for hookers
