Dominican Mornings - February 2-4, 2006

Happy Dominican Weekends! This weekend marked a return to the classic DMs we’ve enjoyed in the past. For the past few weeks, Uncle Moneybags has been super-busy looking at houses all over the OC, leaving Brother Dicksbain on his own. Rest assured, we’ve been having gars in the mornings, but the cold weather and short timeframes have left us without enough material to justify a full post. But shame on us. We should be posting anyway.
Enough said. This weekend, Uncle Moneybags started off with another Padron Serie 1926 No. 35 Maduro–a super-premium from his year-end “bonus” box. Brother Dicksbain had a La Aurora Dominican Robusto–a testament to how cold it has been in Ohio (this cigar was from a deal over a month ago, proving how few gars Dicksbain has had over the past few weeks). There are bound to be many-a-gar during the super bowl as well. Unofficially, we’re both rooting for the Colts.
Topics Discussed:
Work Woes - better for Dicksbain (even though he’s working this weekend); still miserable for Uncle Moneybags, but the end is in sight and the hours haven’t been that bad;
Eve Online - Brother Dicksbain makes his triumphant return to this “stellar” game (bad pun, sorry);
Blingy-blingy 62″ DLP purchase by Brother Dicksbain, how jealous I am;
Uncle Moneybags’ house shopping–5 Saturdays in a row, over 40 properties, 5 bids, 2 offers, including one from today!
OC housing market (see above) - with rising interest rates sure to “break” arms, where can it go but down?
Dreamfall: The Longest Journey - great game, though a little short, low on gameplay, and disappointing in the end; terrific soundtrack, though derivative of other works;
Prey - the only first person shooter that has Art Bell voiceovers and doesn’t suck… until you realize it’s the same level over and over again; sort of a snoozer by the end.
A used car specifically for car gars (wouldn’t need to have much other than an engine, working windows and a working heater to replicate SoCal weather), though neighbors might object to Datsun from 1982 sitting in driveway….
Gars Smoked:
1926 Serie Padron No. 35 Maduro
CAO Maduro Churchill (amazing smoke for the price!)
La Aurora Dominican Robusto
La Aurora Preferido Robusto (wonderfully complex, like smoking dark chocolate with orange peel)
CAO Brazillia Churchill
Gurkha Expedition Toro
CAO Criollo Robusto - Uncle Moneybags still doesn’t like that much
(more to come!)
God Bless DMs!
