Holiday Season 2022 - Cigar Time

Wednesday, December 21, 2022

The bomb cyclone hovering over the nation and the blizzard and cold conditions with it are causing quite a headache for folks, to put it mildly. Travel has been disrupted and people are dealing with being out of power and heat in many places across the country. 


Lit up a small cigar which only took about 20 minutes to smoke. Above screen shot of the temp taken around 7 a.m. this morning. Cigar photos taken this afternoon. A little too cold out for my leather jacket so being really bundled up and a lack of wind made it tolerable.

Another Great Day for a Cigar in the Garage

Lit up a Romeo y Julieta and got started.  I asked Bing to write a story about a man smoking a cigar and shoveling snow. This was the result: "As the man shovels the freshly fallen snow, the chill in the air is temperd bby the warmth of the cigar perched between his lips. The taast is rich and full-boddied, a complex blend of earthiness with hints off spice that seems to defy the simplicity of the winter landscape around him. Each draw from the cigar offers a momentary escape, a sensory journey that contrasts the monotonous task of clearing the driveway." "The man finds joy in this juxtaposition: the manual labor of shoveling paired with the indulgent flavor of the cigar. It's a ritual that grounds him, connecting the act of wor
