So with that gift certificate I mentioned that I recieved from my grandmother, I headed down to the store.

Was looking around, and decided to grab up a Madelaine,Inc. digi themometer/hygrometer. Picked up a few Colibri lighters, LOVED that new push button, neato!
Looking around smore, I remembered that I wanted to try out the humidicrystals, that come in the clear tubes. Lucky me, all sold out.
$35 left after the digi. I check out a few cabinet style humidors, nice, but too expensive. I can make one for 1/3 the price, and am in the process of doing so.
So its time to pop in the walk-in. Open up the door, and am blasted in the face with the sweet smell of cigars, and soon break out a small sweat from the mugginess.
Looking around, looking around, I grab a tin of the CAO Brazillia 5pack cigars. Sweet, I love the Gol!, figure these would be pretty nice as well.
$25 left.... I see all the Camacho smokes and take a look, then all of the sudden, a small red fade to black pouch catches my eye with CAMACHO TIME! printed on it. I pick it up, turn it over, and start looking at the list of 4 cigars that it is included with:
Camacho SLR Maduro
Camacho Camacho
Camacho Camacho Corojo
Camacho Diploma

I set it back on the shelf without thinking twice, and right as I was letting go of the package, I grab it up and walk out of the walk-in. I grab a bundle package of some sulphur-free matches(my prefered lighting method) and some PG mixing solution, and head to the couter.
I talk with the owner of the store for about an hour over a cigar discussing the Bolivar tasting event, the Macanudo Embassador tasting event, and what he has planed for next year. Great! Camacho is comming in January with a bus full of hot babes and free smokes and beer! I give him my phone number and address to add to the stores mailing list, finish the cigar(RyJ reserva real) and head on out.


So here I am, PISSED to find out that my analog hygrometer has been 10% off (actually72ºF/60% in there), and that prolly explains why all of my cigars that I leave in there are smoking like shit.

Ive got the diploma sitting out...staring at it. Ive snarled at it a few times, and even poked it. Its a very intimidating from what ive read/heard about them. I think imma put it up, and go eat a huge dinner first! lol
 
Oh Yeah!! Diploma Time!! I might smopke one tonight too now...

I'd definatley eat first though, those diploma's have a body that hit's you in the face, but then like a ghost, out of no-where it'll nab you in the stomach and drop you to your knees!! Might as well have some food in there to feed the monster!

Actually it's not that bad, but it doesn't start slow that's for sure, starts with a bang that keeps on banging the whole way through....
 
lol. Just finished a steak n tater dinner....hmm, to diploma or not to diploma
 
just remember, after the first one, theres no going back. if you take the blue pill (dont smoke the diploma) you stay in wonder land. if you take the red pill (smoke the diploma) ill show you how deep the rabit hole goes (you'll be addicted to diplomas just like the rest of us)...
 
lol. Its just so cold outside!Actually... I think imma hook up my TV out in the garage and smoke a couple cheapies, and then light up the Diploma. lol
