And the race is on!
The honor of hosting the first cigar tasting events of 2008 went to Cigar Castle in Temple Terrace and Gaspar's Cigar Shop in Tampa. Keith Hager and the Caliente Girls were on hand making sure everyone was enjoying the Rocky Patel cigars chosen for the evening at Gaspar's; my sources at Cigar City magazine tell me it was a complete success. Congrats! Cigar Castle, on the other hand, was counting on the appearance of Miss Oliveros but, as luck would have it, she was supposed to be coming from Orlando, and since I-4 was a no-go, she never made it. Nevertheless, we got to sample a very nice cigar from Oliveros, so all was not lost. Nothing on the horizon for this week, though.

"Smoking a cigar gives you a chance to sit back and
take things slow for a bit. You can wipe all of the
day's thoughts out of  your brain for that short period
and just relax and enjoy the peace"

Smoking a cigar is nothing like smoking a cigarette. When you smoke a cigar, you have time to think. It teaches you patience and tolerance, and gives you an appreciation of good company.
