Good stuff. You're a lucky man.
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.

Gifting me cigars would be like giving a brew master a 6 pack. It's always the thought that counts.

I have quite a few sticks in the stash, but a gift like that one would have me over the moon, especially if they were ones I didn't already have and hadn't tried before.  The thought always counts, but I never get tired of acquiring new sticks.   :cigarman:

Very Nice. How did you reciprocate?  :shades:
