    Your Favorite Classic Blends (Virginia, Burly, English, etc) and Why?

    ***What Are You Smoking, July 2024?***

    My Siena 673 was delivered today. Baptized it with Billy Budd and a little added chopped cigar leaf to tweak up the cigar vibe a scootch.

    Collecting Ethos

    I’m definitely in the assortment camp. I buy based on what I like, what appeals to me.

    Good and Bad Experiences Smoking in Public

    The choice was not stay home from work and relax or go to work as expected. The choice was to do the correct thing or not. You may have really really wanted to stay home and really really not want to go to work but that was not the choice you faced. The choice faced was ‘do the right thing or...

    Ah, but therein lies the rub. When you make the choice of what is correct it is precisely because what you wanted most at that moment was the correct thing.
