Default Misfortune = Opportunity
My daughter left for school today after a 3-week break. We got her all packed up, (I thought) then discovered a large duffle bag with all her jeans, pajamas, etc in it. We called her and she freaked. Being the fantastic father I am, I offered to meet her in Kokomo with the goods.

I took along a 5 Vegas Miami Churchill and a Liga Privada #9. The 5 Vegas was good as always. The Liga Privada was a bit of a let down. Not bad but certainly not as good as I hoped. The drive was worth it as I have not had a long trip alone where I could smoke and turn the music up real loud. Oh, and my daughter thinks I'm a hero.

Are there cigars that do drive a car for you, I'm very interested in them?

Pretty cool story Scott.
