Anyone smoking anything special to mark the occasion?

I dug up a CAO America that someone gifted me last summer....

never had one but figured I'd light it up in honor of a man who was used by God to inspire great change in our nation...

Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day everyone...

A a King, wouldn't he be in favor of a monarchy and not communism?

Too cold to smoke today. But if it weren't 9 degrees outside, I'd go for a CAO America as well, not least of which for the multicolored wrapper.

He did alot of good.

I do dislike that he gets a holiday though. If we have a "Presidents" day and not specific to people like George Washington I don't feel anyone should have a "day".

That isn't a slight of MLK life or accomplishments but no more than many others who ended up trading their life for freedoms sake.

I don't think Dr. King or any of the Presidents should get a day that the kids are out of school for. Today should be set aside as a day of learning. The kids should be in school learning who he was, what he stood for, and what he did. Same goes for George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, et. all. What the hell does sitting around the house playing video games do to honor Dr. King?

Didn't choose due to MLK or Inauguration or any other reason other than it sounded good right now: Asylum 13. Pretty good cigar. Not complex enough, perhaps, but good flavors and perfect construction.
