The darkside

[dpricenator]

I have just recently tasted the darkside of life with a decerning pallet. I have now collected only about 10. II can'r seem to bring myself to smoke them with out a decent occaision or reason to do so. Not because they are expensive, but because they are not readily available. I think I'm going to pull the trigger on a sampler this week.

This is how it starts.
"I will only smoke them on speical occasions" then ...
"I will only smoke one on the weekend" then
"I will only smoke THEM on the weekend" then
"I will only smoke one or two per week" then
"I will only smoke one per day"

Then "Oh my God I have to move to a friendly import country".

Nice way to sum it up.

I'm struggling mightily with the whole 3-5++ year thing. Will I still be alive? Will I still be smoking? I'm at the point where I either have to jump all in and stash a bunch long term, or continue settling for mostly 0-2 year olds.

I never plan that far ahead for anything. I never have, because my life never ends up where I plan anyway (rarely worse, sometimes better, but certainly always different than anticipated)

My life is a punt. The next step doesn't fit into that. Blah...

I guess that's what a will is for :dunno: Only you can make that decision, but when you live 3-5 years longer, then you'll realize it was worth it :thumbsup:

There are sites where you can buy aged Habanos, you do pay a premium for them, but if you want aged sticks and don't want to wait, it's an option.

One per day = ~75 boxes times $XXX per box...hmmmmmmmm

My wife would shit. Especially if I got hit by a bus next month. hah!

(Little does she know that it would cost that much over time anyway even if I just stuck to Padrons and Pepins etc.)

Yeah, but I know myself well enough to stay far far far away from that slope :timebomb:

Darkside/Brightside it's important to maintain some balance.
