Being here almost 3 years (and smoking in B&M's just as long), I have noticed something about myself. I noticed that I rarely speak of BOTL to strangers. My representation of BOTL when I go to my local and have a smoke or two for football Sunday or a cigar event could be better. What I mean is, if I meet a brother locally, I should mention what a great place BOTL has been to me the last 3 years. We all have our local guys we love to HERF with at home or at the local, and that will last. We all have met somewhere though, either through a friend or while selecting a cigar at the local. I'm going to be more aware of guys that are new to BOTL, that I may like to invite to our brotherhood. Almost like a representative or ambassador (not officially). I would like to open the door for more brothers, as the door was opened for me.
Do you think about BOTL when meeting new brothers at the locals? How many of you have come here because someone befriended you and told you about the BOTL?
While I'm here in Seattle for school, I will befriend some new guys and tell them how great and well rounded this place is. Some may be open to it, some not. On the other hand, some of us have forged friendships that will last a lifetime. I hope I just made sense.
