I was just digging in the cabinet today and came across my jar of black label as well as the box of those Noella reservas that I've been saving for a rainy day. I'm completely out of touch with what's good from Tatuaje currently, so this has been helpful thread!

Just went to Gov't Mule with my son on Thursday, then Friday saw the news of Gregg Allman's passing, so we've been jamming out to lots of that over the past few days. Lots of great memories of Allman Brothers shows when I was younger!

Working my way down ND from a quick visit to the border, enjoying a wonderful 03 Punch Punch and 2nd coffee.

Group Buy?

Just because it's a fun thread to look at, and maybe you'll see an example of your old style band there, check out the Anejo & Opus X reference thread pinned at the top, there's photos of their entire lineup.

That was a fun watch, thanks!

This is terrible news. I just feel awful for what his family is going through. He was, and always will be, the best, most generous and caring guy I've ever had the pleasure to meet on this forum.

OK, of course I would never bring a cigar to an 8 & 9 year old baseball practice.  But it's awesome to think about how when some of us were kids it was quite commonplace, even on school grounds.   But thanks for the coaching advice.  Bottom line is I just want to provide these kids with the...

At this age, it's a pitching machine.  They start fast pitch here when they're 4th graders.   I'm a huge proponent of long term athlete development at the expense of winning championships as 2nd graders.

I make my baseball coaching debut tonight with my youngest son's team, they're 8 and 9 year olds.  This could be my big chance to be that guy all of us fondly remember, the salty old coach chewing on a cigar while barking out orders!   Probably some rule about the fields being "tobacco free".  ...

  I've been thinking lately about doing a sequel to that one, I'll let you know and shoot for this fall to get it off the ground

Good to hear, I hope I sent you the correct half of the cigars you're keeping.  Keep an eye out on the buy/sell/trade forum for my half!

Stop reading right now if you're faint of heart and/or can't stand the sight of an accident.   OK, for those still with us, I present my review of an absolute disaster of epic proportions.  It's a long story, but the bottom line is valuable lesson was learned by all parties involved.  ...

here's the final p/t's for updating the OP, this is off to Matt now.   Take 7 Fuente Unnamed  Put: 70  Don Carlos Sr. Blend Robusto Take 12 OR Anejo 48  Put:   71  OR Anejo 55 Take 28 Wolter's BGM  Put:  72  Taboada Super Rodolfo ('07) Put 73  LFD "Bad to the Bone" Outlaw '07*       * -...

OK, I'm sending this to Matt.  I don't remember what my puts and takes were so I'll just grab a couple cigars out of the box and tape it up.

Thanks for the motivation to make something new!  Many years ago when I was in De La Guarda, an Argentine broadway show, the creators of the show knew all the best places to go for the best Argentinian food, including their take on Empanadas, They were some of the best I'd ever had.   The one...

What are CoRo's going for these days?  Or as mentioned the Siglo VI.   Something larger that you can enjoy for a longer session is a good point.

Ah fuck it, I'm keeping it!  Looks like Ben's not been on the site in quite some time, I'll send Burtch a message and see if he wants it.  Otherwise it looks like the pass ends here!
