Dominican Mornings - March 9-11, 2007

Another week, another set of Dominican Mornings. Good times. Brother Dicksbain skipped out on Saturday morning to go shopping at Ikea (a short 4-hour drive to Pittsburgh), while Uncle Moneybags went to do the final walkthrough on his mo-money mega mansion in Dove Canyon. Uncle Moneybags donated one of his famed Cubans to his realtor, but no worries–there are still 9 left for the upcoming wedding/Hudgar festivities. Uncle Moneybags assisted Sister-L in purchasing a new 328i BMW sedan (and got to see the 335i coupe again!). He even turned down a chance to drive a black hardtop M6 (wtf?). Other than work, life seems pretty good. Can’t wait to get back to the OC–even if it is a little more south than where we’re from.
Gars Smoked:
-
Cuban Montecristo No. 2 (by far, the best smoke I’ve ever had, this time while watching the Sopranos on DVD);
La Aurora Preferido Cameroon Robusto (while Sister-L was filling out the financial forms for her new kick-ass car);
CAO Gold Robusto (in between work, sucks);
Oliva Serie G Toro (after work, while drinking!);
Padron Serie 1926 No. 35 Maduro (an amazingly strong smoke, on Friday night with Brother Dicksbain);
CAO Gold Carona Gorda
Gurkha Dos Capas Barber Pole - an excitingly complex smoke
Hoyo de Monterrey Excalibur 1066 Merlin - saved this one for over a year before smoking; amazing; reminds me of the old Firefly days in the Spruce place; we discovered these almost two years ago to the date at Vendomes
Montecristo White Toro - a terrific morning smoke
-
Topics Discussed:
New car purchase for Sister-L;
Warmer weather in Cleveland makes for some fine smokes;
ESV 1991 Perdomo purchase by Brother Dicksbain — a sweet deal on some fine cigars;
Xbox360–when will they put the HDDVD unit inside the box? Gears of War: great game;
Uncle Moneybags mo-money mega mansion — closing on Monday!; moving date uncertain
Uncle Moneybags’ Work woes — almost done, searching for new job;
Dicksbain’s BBQ and late night Y2K/Daylight Savings Time Work
Angles Baseball - no one’s left; time to rebuild the team; Kennedy back to the Cardinals; Erstad’s gone too; fatty Molina remains?
Odds of David Eckstein winning a World Series MVP award 5 years ago (a billion to one)
CAO Sopranos Cigars - surprisingly good for a marketing gimmick
Beers Drank:
Coors Light;
Corona Light;
(Brother Dicksbain to add more here…)
Video Games Played:
EVE: Online
BF1942: Secret Weapons of World War II
Dreamfall - the Longest Journey (watched the end again)
GTA San Andreas - great game, but no longer working on Uncle Moneybags’ system
KOTOR - ok, I didn’t play, but just thinking about playing this game almost 4 years ago always brings a smile to my face.
