Happy Mothers day to all you Mothers this wonderful May 14 06
sorry for the late post , a buddy called this morning asking me to take him to pick up his new Harley , so after I made french toast for the boss I took off , just got back, he picked up his new Street Bob , all in flat black , not my idea of a nice Shiney new bike , but like assholes & opinions, every one has one !
Since it is Mothers day I picked up a yellow diamond for the boss, had it sitting on the table with the box open so she would see it first thing this morning, & just like a little school girl she had tears of JOY running down her cheeks , dammmm I hate it when they cry, dont know if they are happy or sad !??!
well I got a big hug & a wet neck from all the blubbering she was doing, ! I guess she is happy ?????
the Pot Roast is on & the morning cigar was a great little Cuban corona Jose L. Peidro & the kona was great with it , I have a mug of Mayorgia right now with a Mayorgia High Octane corona, there is a big OPUS X Churchill with my name on it for after the pot roast,the grandsons are with there Dad in W.Va. camping out & fishing this weekend, doing what ever they want to do she it is QUIET here for Mothers day , & I have no idea where my daughter is , she had the weekend free so she is painting her nails sleeping late & not answering the phone, so that makes it realllllllly quiet !
I had a weeee dram of Scotch sitting here but some how the snifter is now empty, dammm did it evaporate that fast, , next time I will add a splash of water so it takes longer to disapear !!!
We are going to the mother in laws about 6 pm tonight I hope it is not raining, I can stay outside & have a cigar, if it is raining I will be forced to go in dammmmm , nothing I like better than talking to an OLD lady who has no idea who I am , my wife & her sister are goinbg to join an altzhimers support group, they sure do need it, the old lady is driving them nuts , of all the things she can remember its my phone number , 9 calls yesterday , so I talk to her & have the same conversation 9 different times , we took the car keys off of her a few moths ago, & she is still looking every whare for them, every day we tell her I have the keys here & I forgot to leave them when I took the car to have the oil changed & 9 times she called asking did I know where her keys were ! dammmmm , I hope some one shoots me before I get like that !
we are just a few days from the Cigar crawl, it starts this Friday night & will end some time Sunday , IF I can keep up with the young lions, I am the oldest guy on the bus , & last year I was still going strong long after a few of the young lions crashed , NO STAMINIA at all, you need to pace your self, like when the young bull said to the old bull, lets run down to the field & hump a cow, the old bull said no we will walk down & do them ALL. , well some of the young guns started out like it was a sprint hahahahahaha, I just moseyed along with my cigars coffee & scotch ( & a bit of my home brewed brandy ) & by midnight I was ready to go to the strip club, , I had a pocket full of singles & was looking for a nice dancer to tuck it in her G string, but the young guys were drunk & sleepy, what a waist of time they would have been at the club, & I didnt want to go alone, so I just had an other cigar & hit the scotch one last time & went to bed , UP & at them Sunday morning , a breakfast of eggs bennidict & some brandy to get the heart in gear for the day, & my Young friends were all hung over & sick. dammmm Oh well they will learn with age I hope !! I am siked up for this crawl, looking for some old stale cigars in the bargin bins of all the places we stop ! hahahaha , well I have a cup of coffee getting cold & a cigar that needs some fire set to it , have a great mothers day & drive save , dont hit a bump & spill your drink ! hahaha Enjoy, Vince

Ahhhhhhhh, the famous Cigar Crawl. I've been reading about this magnificent event since the year 2000, and it's never a dull read. It seems like the most fatigued thing after the Crawl is always the toilet on the bus. :cryinlaugh: :cryinlaugh: :cryinlaugh:

Certainly not Vince, he's always rarin' to go, and outlasts ALL the young guys. :eek:mg: :sm_angel: :bolt:

Enjoy, Vince
 
I'M BACK , hahaha, welkl it is Sunday afternoon, I have had breakfast & lunch & am on the second pot of coffee, the first one was Kona , this one is Kenya AA , well lets get back to yesterday , we started out about 8:30 am after a weeeee sip of Brandy , I started the morning with a Mild Licencodos Churchill, & we were off to Penn Ohio cigar shop in Sharon Pa , , verry nice people there , donuts & coffee were on the house & collectively we spent about $3500, I got a gew cigars but I didnt go for a box , I did get a nice bottle wick to put in a wine bottle 7 turn it in to a candle, just fill it with lamp oil & put in the fiberglass wick & it will last forever so the man said ! , back on the bus to a place in Ohio, Havana House, we loaded up on fresh roasted coffee beans , I got Kawi Blue , will be grinding it Monday morning !
I split a box of Camacho Libertys 2005 with a buddy & picked up one Opus X to be saved for next years crawl, I added it to the Opus Humi , it is almost full, So I better stop aging them & start to smoke more of them.!!!!!
Back on the Bus & we went to lunch , it was OK, but they needed to brighten up the bar area, A Bunch of guys all smoking cigars, need enough light to see to read the menu, it was all set on Mood lighting for the singles on the Prowel , the only thing we were prowing for was boooooooze & cigars , But if Mamie van Dorn propistioned me I might have changed my mind( for you young Guys , thinks of Pamala Anderson , bigger NATURAL chest , & not as slutty .
Ok we move on to Cordys Cigar Box again in Ohio, expresso on tap, great prices on Davidoff stuff , I had my hands on a 4 pack of Double R's , less than 80 bucks , but I thought long & hard before I put them back & just bought a few Zino Platinum low riders, a few Avo's & some Diamond Crown #5's & didnt break a C note ( again for you young guys a C note is a 100 dollar bill, , the Roman numeral for one hundred is C ) , dammm I fell like I am running a day care center, I had to explain everything to the young lions on the bus . , well we moved on to Klafters In New Castle, Pa.& ran wild in the Humidors , I piced up a box of Masterpieces , but they were Naturals not Maduro, Dammmm, but I will age them a bit & they will be just fine in a year or so . I also pick up a box of Troya Maduro Coronas for 55 bucks , I dont know what the selling price of them is or do I care, this was the brand I smokes uears ago & I havent seen them in a long time , so when I saw them, I grabbed them, the cello was all yellow & cracked on the box & I didnt open it till last night when I got home, a Wondeful Blume has taken hold of a few of the sticks in the box & it will be developing on the rest soon. , well we all had a great time there & then it was back on the bus for the trip to Alleghney Smoke Works & a date with the Macanudo Bus , woppie , well ASW had beer & brats on the grill for us along with Chili, I picked up a few nice sticks & got to BS to a lot of people . then Back on the bus to Station Square , Poor Richards cigar shop & the Grand Concourse for diner , the Lovely Lori Silverman who is a rep for Mimai Cigar was there & giving out hugs & selling cigars , , well we went to dinner , I had some aptisers & soup with about half my salad , I never touched the dinner it self , I will split it with the boss today for supper, & I dont need to cook today & there will be left overs for sure , we got back to the hotel, unloaded out bounty & jumped back on the road for the ride home, I got to bed just a little after 2 am & got back up at 9:30 this morning scrambled eggs with hot pepper cheese & bacon ,& now I think it is time for a fine old cigar that I have saved since the first crawl I went on 8 years ago , it is a Monte Number 1 & I have a pot of coffee ready to go & a snifter of scotch . so it is off to the Qtr.Deck & a fine time , if any one want s to join me, Come on over ! , Enjoy, Vince
 
Beautiful, Vince, just beautiful. Tell me something, and I know that an ex-Navy cook would know this. About that lamp, what do you use, whale oil? :cryinlaugh: :cryinlaugh: :rotflmao: :sm_angel:

And as for Mamie Van Doren, that was a real woman. If guys want to the see the REAL, NATURAL representation of a hot blonde from 40 years ago, they can also look up Joey Heatherton. Joey Heatherton was hotter than jet fuel. Pamela Anderson is hideous, fake, not even all that good looking to begin with, and a snide egomaniac.
 
Yea baby Joey Heatherton, Great legs, but no chest, to speak of, nothing like Jame Masfield, MM or Mamie, they were real ladys, no plastric breasts, they were REAL & boy did they like to show them off ! I just came in from the Qtr.Deck, a few guys stopped over & we shared to bounty, traded some sticks for ones each other got yesterday, , the humidors are looking just fine ! I picked up some Fitapaldis & a few Untold Storys( in Maduro) no less, I did have a maduro fitalpidi last night it was great. Enjoy, Vince
 
Yeah, I can take 'em or leave 'em. A woman can be practically board flat up top for me, if she's got round cheeks, both on her face and elsewhere, and ample in both places. That's why I think Rachael Ray is the hottest woman in the universe. Incredible face, and "elsewhere."

As for Joey Heatherton, she was a tiny girl to begin with, 5'1" or something like that, but 34-20-32, so not a flatsy at all. She had curves!!!
 
I like curves, it is fun to use your finger tips to follow the road to ............, well thats for a different board hahahaha

back to the Crawl, I cant tell you when I have had as good a time with all my clothes on !, the bus has a seating capacity 45 & we had 39 show up , the bus pulled out right on time . the stops were all ready for us with coffee donuts , & some distilled spirits & hand crafted beer's later in the day there were grilled brats & hot dogs waiting for us , plus the lunch & dinner stops , I ate way to much, I did get a bit uncomfortable at dinner, so all I had was the soup & salad, I brought the entire entrée & desert home for the boss , I did manage to eat the mushrooms & artichoke hearts on the chicken, the boss isn't a big fan of ether so I was "forced" to consume them before they got cold !
I am sipping a BIG mug of expresso this morning, need a little jolt to get me going, , I am getting old, the legs just dont move as far & as fast as they did in the past, I am finding out what I used to do all night , now takes me all night to do ! , I am a bit sore this morning, , no more showing off doing hand stand pushups hahahahaha ( I havent done one of them since the Navy ! )
the Boss & I went for a cigar ride last night , I had a Troya maduro corona & a Maduro work of Art , that was a gift from a buddy on the crawl, I have a fFitapaldicorona to fire up this afternoon, I didnt get up for my morning cigar walk today, it was just to comfortable in bed ! so I didnt get up till 10 AM, dammmm I am getting lazy hahahahahaah

my bird feeder is getting a real work out, I fill it & in less than 6 hours it is empty again, 25 pounds of food a week, lots of visits by a lot of birds , the blue jays & cardinals are the most colorful, but the finches, chickadees & wrens all add to the song, the robins stay on the fround & go for the worms & the doves stay under the feeder & eat off of the ground , the starlings just come in & scare off all the birds but the Blue jays , they are not intimadted , they are intimadators !
The pasture next door has been vacant of new veal since Ole Angus McStudd was sold , BUT last night I did hear the bellowing of a new young bull to take ole Angus's place , I havent sean him yet but I did hear the tones that I did hear from ole Angus , but in a different voice , not as old in tone & a bit higher in pitch , But none the less the sounds of baby veal in the making hahahaha ! looking fwd. to see what is in the field this summer !, I was talking to Angus's owner & he told me he sold him so he (the owner ) could retire, now I hear a new bull, I guess he changed his mind about retirement . , time for me to jump in the shower , lots of stuff to do today, like smoke a few new cigars & drink a lot of coffee maybe I need a little hair of the dog who bit me ! hahahaha Enjoy, Vince
