Off work today. Started with a favorite of mine, an Excalibur III, after breakfast. A nubber!

Had a mystery cigar after lunch. Wish I knew what it was. Think it was an old Connie from a trade with Framis. Unlabeled. 5-1/2x50 maddie. Yummy.

A box of A. Fuente Exquisitos arrived in the mail. They do know how to present cigars, Carlos and Carlito!

Another box arrived from a trade with Danny, 10 beautiful Perdomo La Tradicion Red Labels. Prettier than Hemingways.

Got email from both Danny and Steve that both their trade boxes arrived safe. Lit up one of those little firecracker Exquisitos after dinner, following which my wife reminded me how happlily married I am. Did I say nice day? It was a GREAT day!

And how was your day?

LLT,I see you took the plunge and got some of those AF X's. I burn one just about everyday at lunch time. You had a nice day indeed!. X

Hey,I had a pretty darn good day myself! But alas I have no Exquisitos :^(





Hmmmmm maybe a little La Luna Colada will cheer me up,bet it will....TBC

X, I was thinking after posting this one, that the missing name in it was yours. Ladies and gentlemen, the first Exquisito I ever lit up was sent to me by our friend Andy here. It was love at first puff. Andy is a great, funny and generous guy.

Yup, Andy, and that is my first box of AFExq's. Wont be my last. Its a pretty little box, and I know you like those as much as I do.

Those Exquisitos are incredible!...I'd eventually like to get a box of 'em...Strong little smoke!

Rookie sent me a few a while back ... 'YUMMY!'

Slim, if you want to get a box, X told me where to find them at about half the usual. eleltea (dont include this) at (this either)yahoo DOTT com.

Why does everone do that? Just curious ...

What happens if you just say [email protected] ...

My question too, Slim. You'd think spammers cruising BB's for e-addresses could pick that up just as easily. What am I missing here?

they don't actually crawl through and read them as you and I would ... their 'puters do the crawlin' and don't recognize the addy if it's not in proper addy form ... [email protected]

Thanks!
