Yeah wallet took a bit of a hit, but did reasonably on a buying freeze for November and early December

Just came back from visiting a couple B& M's here in Jacksonville while visiting our son. I picked up a few sticks but thank to this post the wife is proud of me for not going overboard and thinks stopping at JR'S when we head out is a good idea. Thank Chuck. :biggrin:
I am not concerned about what you think as I can tell you don't do it often.

I used to be a people person, but then people ruined that for me.

Every loaf of bread is a tragic story of a group of grains that could have become beer but didn't.

Never been there. Its only an hour south so i'll have to make a point of it, soon! Being new to this hobby (last two years), I've a lot to learn about great sticks and where to acquire them.

Yes, I'm a newbie, only been seriously burning sticks for a couple years. Your suggestions are appreciated!

Michael, you should introduce yourself in the Newbie Intro Section of the forum, you'll get a proper welcome and we'll get to know more about you :-)

Welcome to CG by the way

I'm on the other side of the state, but if I ever get out to the "burgh", Leaf and Bean will be a stop I will make.

Just curious Chuck, but if you drink a "Coke", is it "Soda" or "Pop" ??

That was always a big debate at Penn State between Pittsburghians and Philladelphians.

 

P.S.  ITS A SODA!!!!

 Steve, I ask for Pepsi but most here call it pop!  If ur ever out this way I would be happy to meet you at L&B. What about the Pens and Flyers playing and outdoor game at Beaver Stadium?

That would be awesome if they can pull it off!  Maybe by 2017 the Flyers will be good again.  They're pretty much a joke right now, as are the Phillies and Sixers.  If it weren't for Chip Kelly and the Eagles, there would be very little sports excitement around here.

Great buy! The only Cigar shop near me in small town VA is a very small, limited shop. Most of the cigars I purchase, I purchase online, except for an occasional trip through Burlington, NC where I can stop at JR's. That is always a thrill!
