Thanks Jim. Maybe you can help me out a little with that because I do have a cigar that I believe I was given or purchased when our first child was born, can't recall exactly but I do know that I never smoked it. Perhaps, I bought some and gave to some friends, does that sound right?
Anyway, sort of feel like torching that thing up, should I wait?

Sounds good to me. I am very much a non-smoker... But I do enjoy a good Cuban every so often. I keep a few around in a small humidor for special occasions.

No need to wait -- unless you want to fire it up WITH friends... Enjoy your cigar.... Just not around the kids! Wink

What I mean Jim is where did all the business about having a baby and cigars come from?
Hate to say it, but on the way back from dropping off the practitioner's assistant I grabbed a pack of Mild Seven Lights and had a pull on that. Seems to have satisfied my urge to inhale, somewhat. Had a couple of tasty non-alcoholic Dutch beers to celebrate, as well.

Enjoy,

Thank you Guest and Kiwi, you are both very kind.
So tiny she is, so truly amazing. Keep going in the other room to look at her and can not believe that yesterday she was in the warm slippery confines of her mother's womb and today I am gently kissing her newborn cheeks while her tiny little hands clutch at my fingers.
Behold the gift of life, cherish it for all to see.

Enjoy,

I am in Fukui, West Japan (I think!). Today I bought champaigne, I will say cheers for you then ! That's so cool!!
I was thinking of a GOOD IDEA to get this "mr. John" guy outside this country in a safe way. I feel like I gotta help this dude. what the heck if he overstayed? That cannot be a crime. Geez! (i was talking about other thread they started about overstaying!)
Well, you have a great week and cheers,

be well,
