missed the ~ baka gaijin! just kiddin'.

I've had a fantastic zoom drink with friends and good drinks. Hope yours is good as well.

Belated Birthday Doc. My late dad, a Korean war Marine, once told me the most protected person in a bar on leave was the corpsman. Should he get in a fight every marine was on his side.

Kann, I skipped the run to eat expensive ass steak. Will get back on Sunday. Thanks everyone for the Geburtstag wishes.

The Chemist in me wonders if I could make a mix the is unbreakable; but then that is no fun. Congrats to recipient and sender.

May he rest in peace. This year has sucked.

Something I miss from living in the US.

I've done been preachin' the opposite direction. When I joined up with a cigar club in Der Schweiz everyone smokes Cubanos, because we are a neutral country. But I introduced some NC to the club and they have taken off; although not as I had hoped, they like Perdomo. I had hoped they would go...

I don't log in much, but it seems every time I do we have lost another. If I stop coming around will it change? RIP.

We have no hard plans. We get into Schiphol about 1330 and leave the next morning. KLM changed my connecting flight from Amsterdam to leave 2 hours before my flight from Zurich. So we are coming in a day early and have a 20-hour layover.

My two oldest sons and I will be in Amsterdam on July 16. Let me know if you are up for a herf.

RIP Larry. I had the chance to have lunch and a cigar with him and some of his friends while I was at a meeting in St. Louis. He was a great guy.

We almost exclusively watch Anime in our house. We just finished Assassination Classroom and are up to date on One Piece. I think back and catch up on Black Clover and maybe restart Attack on Titan.

I had a Stone IPA, then switched to Rioja.

How Ya'll doing with European lockdowns? Der Schweiz is coming out on May 11, earlier than planned. We will still have restrictions, but at least all shops, including cigar lounges, are open. If the borders are open again in July, up for a herf? What's the drinking age where you are? I've got a...

Make this European friendly and I'm in. I'm not staying up tll the wee smalls with your ugly selves.

Thanks, everyone for the birthday wishes.

Don't think I could make a Thursday. Maybe I could convince the wife to make a weekend out of it. Our local lounges have better times.

When are you in Orlando? Going on vacation there in October.

Just booked tickets back tot he US for a visit. We will be in Jackson from Oct. 6 til 10, the GNV from the 11-14, the Orlando the rest of the time. Let me know if anyone is about for a smoke during that time. Especially Jackson, as I get really bored at the in-law's.
