What Cigar Are You Smoking? 2025

One of my favorite quotes
“The days I keep my gratitude higher than my expectations, I have really good days”
Ray Wylie Hubbard

The man was obviously enlightened. I always say, "Happiness is often the victim of expectation." Not sure where it came from, but sometime around college age that always stuck with me.

On a personal note, i think i'm over the hump at this point. Another week or so of recovery and i should be released. Starting to do squats, push-ups, riding exercise bike and walking the halls like a madman. My hope is that if i'm annoying enough they'll kick me out sooner.

Yesterday I smoked my last Rose of Sharon while watching the maples change color already



The sky put on a nice show last night too



@dottlejockey I’m glad to hear that you’re on the mend, and I hope that your recovery goes quickly!

Dottlejockey for your info got shot in S Asia, back to Norfolk, got a nurse to buy me a pipe at the Gedunk, Navy talk for military shop, around midnight I would ease into the janitors closet and smoke some Carter Hall in my Fine Line pipe, where there’s a Will there’s a way, I Garronte!

I'll be fine if this scene pops up in my dreams tonight. Finishing a stogie with such a gorgeous view on a beautiful day...another day in paradise, my friend.

Had a nice little sneaky deeky walk out in the front gardens today. Always a little hairy jumping on the elevator going back and forth from the 18th floor. But at least this time my pockets weren't bulging with pipes. All i had was an ez to conceal Bic. Made it back and into the shower without issue. They came in to check vitals about 10 minutes after i got out. Perfection. At least i don't have to tunnel through a concrete wall, crawl through HVAC and shimmy down elevator lines. Life could be worse.

Today's escape was inspired and empowered by El Cubano Cigars of local Texas City...



That Bic did manage to scorch the edge of my thumb a tad. Trying to fire up in the Texas winds while keeping an eye out can be a tricky job. :P
