Tonight, Oliva V Lancero. These just get better and better as I work through the box. Can’t ask for a better Habano wrapped cigar. Superb.

Sean, I have noticed you love baseball too. I have been a lifelong Cardinals fan. Who is your team?

Room 101 Daruma Gold lancero. When I first got these they had some type of metallic taste that I didn't like. So I put them away and about once a year I smoke one to see if it's still present. I am glad to say that after about 6 years I'm not detecting the metallic taste any more. But I still prefer the silver label Mutante more. Life's a bitch!

These are definitely a feast or famine smoke. When they go wrong and you gotta fight the draw, they’re a pain in the ass but when they go right and have a perfect pull, relatively even burn, they really go right and punch way above their $5 price tag.

I hear ya. I got T-boned when a guy ran a stop sign and right into my driver's side door and now even though I have the right of way and cross traffic has a stop sign you bet your butt that I still slow down (4 years later) if I see a car approaching that intersection.

Give her time and support @LazyLightning - she'll be looking over her shoulder (with good reason) for a while.

A couple on the golf course this morning

Tonight an MK Ultra

My wife got T-Boned twice in a 2 year period by people running through red lights in the early 2000's. She wasn't severely injured other than a couple of broken bones and bruised up pretty badly. After the 2nd one she said she was done driving and I told her I would drive her whenever and wherever she needed to go and that's how it's been since. She was a mess riding in the car for the first couple of years thinking everyone was going to run through a red light or stop sign. She is doing much better as a passenger these days. It takes a lot of patience to work through'it.
