So I've got my buddy Robin over and we're splitting up 3 boxes of Cigars, while enjoying some Appleton's Reserve. The boxes were Sanch Panza Beli, Non-plus and Mag 46. So Robin looks inside my cooli and says, "where did you get all those NC's from". I say my buddy grond from Louisiana. All of a sudden the phone rings. I answer Hello. It's grond!!!

OMG!!! We chat for a while and then get down to Business (Trade). We've trade at least 5x by now. grond it was an absolute pleasure to hear from you.

It was the first time my buddy Robin had been over and then grond calls for the first time, aaaaaaaaaamazing! It is a small world after all.

Those of you who don't know, I think I'm the only active Canadian member.

grond call anytime, and the next time I'm down south, I'll be sure to visit. The next time your in Canada, I'll try my best to meet up with you, I've got familly right across the country.

I think I gotta go smoke a non-plus now.

Sorry grond, I just had to share this experience.

gronds a great guy.

...kings and vagabonds...

ROFL! limoric, you are the man!!

I was calling limoric to figure out a new trade. Time was of the essence so I simply looked up his phone number and called.

It was a pleasure speaking to you as well. Anytime your down here in Louisiana, come by... but you might want to wait 'til late fall. Currently its 97 deg. F outside. It's really dry today here with a RH of only 83% (it normally runs in the low 90's).

I hope you tried that PAN I sent you. They are really a kick-arse cigar. I'm also packing up a bunch of CAO's for you from the L'Anny Maddie/CAO Black Mosaic/CAO Brazilia Gol. Also a Monte White and some other choice selections. Look for 'em next week along with the envelope I promised.

Cheers,

grond
