Title: The Joy of Living in Orange County...
Post by: Rick Meredith on October 27, 2006, 19:03:02 pm
During brushfire season... :o

The acrid smell of smoke,
The light dusting of ashes on my car
The smoky haze around me
The sky turns from it's normally smoggy brown to to brownish-grey.

Nice cigar collection...but I thought those cuban goodies were not welcome in the US...but they might be just empty boxes, or replicas for all I know. ;)

I'm burning Cuba, one cigar at a time...

I think in the US they're only allowed pre 62's as far as the Cubans are concerned, old school only, it's like the uprights and slopers thing all over again.

I'm in the UK so that's OK. Some of these boxes are now empty though. :)

And the pre '62s are not to be found. Was fortunate enough to try Cubans last time I was in Europe and when I was in Canada last a couple of years ago.
