BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE
Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Thanks to my State Farm agent @Jakethesnake
Had three interviews today. I feel good about all of them, but one left me apprehensive. The listing didn't specify schedule or pay, but I applied. They didn't bring up either one until I asked. Then they gave me the "its a calling" line. Yeah, if anybody tells you the job is a calling, they are about to drop a load of manure on your head.
Trying not to let old habits come back, like trying to find that diamond on the rough bundle cigar that smokes above its pay grade. As I get back into cigars I've been buying only what I know I like, or from blenders I like. But old habits die hard and I figure for $3/ea worst case my machine made shortfill smoking father in law gets some "fancy cigars" that he'll keep in the fridge.
I bought a pack of all 3 flavors of these. Started with the Connie cause I don't smoke Connies and figured ill be most critical of it. But it was decent. Very light. Halfway through it picked up more spicy flavors but they were overshadowed by a creeping undertone of bitterness starting right at the middle. I pushed through for a bit but ended up tossing it about 45m in. I will revisit after a month or two, this one's only been in my humidor for a week and I want to be fair.

I’m sure you’ve had one but my favorite current bundle smoke is the ichiban habano from room 101 They smoke better than a lot of bundle smokes. Mine have a few tears on them and I honestly don’t know if I smoked any prior to a month or few ago
Fuggit we doing a 3 cigar day.
