Of course I didn't but what a gentleman. Him and his father were very kind and welcoming. Even let me take a photo with them

    As beautiful as the lounge is, the real reason I'd visit would be in the hopes to meet either of the Eddie's. Kirby, if these fine gentlemen happen to make it state-side, please let us join you for just a bit.
    A remarkable video and outstanding people.

    I had my 1st Charter Oak Connecticut tonight. 6x60. I've passed by this cigar so many times because my lounge has it retailing for $6.95. I don't usually bother with cigars under $10 and figured it must be lousy. Then I saw the 93 rating and had to give it a try. Glad I did. Really enjoyable cigar.

    The day after procuring a cache of Cubans at Davidoff’s with the help of “Mad” Max Foulkes (Max signed a new N-95 mask in honor of “Surviving the pandemic one corona at a time” and took selfies with me), I was in line at Heathrow with the Sahakians. Of course, I extolled Max’s virtues and got Edward and Eddie to sign another new N-95 mask. No surprise, they were both extremely gracious. Two weeks later, I made another pilgrimage to Davidoff’s with two work colleagues. Max & Eddie set us up with some great sticks, which we enjoyed at the café next to the shop. Glorious!
