Good looking family member. Having driven through KC on trips from ATL to Co Springs, you gotta stop at Outlaw. Always incredible hospitality. I am not a huge BBQ fan, but those Jack Stack burnt ends were on point.

I have USAA as well for all my credit cards. I get a text message is the transition is suspicious. If I text it is a valid charge, they don't shut me down. If its fraud, usually have a new card in a few days. I don't use my debit card rarely. My experience with bank and checking versus USAA and...

I saw Phanton Thread. Daniel Day Lewis does an excellent job. Supposedly it is his last film. I enjoyed it, but, I also enjoy Masterpiece Theater on PBS so... you are warned.

I read Into Thin Air about 20 years ago, but still remember how good it was. I like Jon Krakauer writing. He had a follow up book about Mormon plural marriage that I could not get into. I think it was because I wanted another book that held me like the Everest stories did.

My sympathy for your loss. Its tough.

Yea this should be interesting. Dion makes some really nice cigars. I am not familiar with OneOff but can see him putting this to some interesting uses.

The articles are pretty good. RIP Hef.

Thoughts and prayers for wellness.

PDR FYR Connecticut Valley Reserve Belicoso Azul Rosado. Very tasty.

Reminded me of a Davidoff White Label.   Not sure what the regular Padron smokers will think of it. I found it interesting, and interesting enough that I will smoke another.

Thanks for posting this article.

I have aged both Cuban and non-Cuban cigars. I always try to stage my aging, not necessarily along the Min Ron Nee, but between 1 and 8 years. Nothing last much longer than that.   I do have some Savinelli's from 2004 and those turned into air cigars.   I have a few AF Hemingways that aged...

Thanks all. Just caught the thread but much appreciated.

Thanks to Brian for setting this up and Gary helping as #2's #2.   I have been around a while, and, other than one years back that did not go so well,  never jumped in on one of these before. Hope to join another soon.   It helps to have had this opportunity to learn. Also, the contests were a...

Congrats on the win Mike.   That pic of Brian is way off from his Kat Von D avatar lol

Must not have State Farm for insurance "I gotcha a dollar"

Second that on Gary. He has been a real help guiding this pass through. Just failed me on Delicia showing up with the pass.

I agree regarding CI pricing. While they have some really good deals sometimes, overall CI enjoys a reputation of being the least expensive that I think is often misleading. And, admittedly, I find I overspend on CI for things I really don't need like the circular ice cube tray I added to an...

Looks like solid put and takes to me. Appears Theron may be taking a liking to the lancero. Nice !!

Pass shipped out to today.    UPS Tracking No. 1z8845x90312337833. Shows anticipated delivery on Monday, 2/28.   Handing off to Theron.   Thanks for letting me participate.
