I am rarely in the ER, so I only see them when it is bad enough that they need to go to the OR. But, distracted driving is a major cause of automobile accidents. FWIW, I was moving at a crawl, on a road with no cars other than my own.? The risk/reward calculation on this has simply never made sense to me. I see guys post pictures of their cigars from moving cars all the time. Last week, you posted while driving on a highway. And regardless of the rationalization - I was driving slow! There we no other cars around! (how would you know when you're using your phone to photograph your cigar!?) - what's the reward? Likes on the internet? I struggle to understand how something so trivial could be worth any additional risk whatsoever to yourself or others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I struggle to understand how something so trivial could be worth any additional risk whatsoever to yourself or others. Perhaps you are reading into it, risk that is not really there. There is a big difference between picking up your phone for a second and snapping a quick picture, and reading your text messages or emails while driving. You don't even take your eyes off the road to take the picture. You are taking more risk eating or talking on the phone while driving than you are snapping a picture that takes all of a second to take, and of something that is right in the direction you are supposed to be looking while driving. I don't know why you feel the need to blow this out of proportion, when this is probably the least distracting "distraction" there is. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post CampDelta369 Posted August 17, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 17, 2020 ... And now back to our originally scheduled programming... I have not cut many of these due to my large RG phobia? It is quite a cigar though. This one starts out with milk coffee, salted butter, and nuts? Burn is typically Trinidad with excellent construction. We got some good late morning Marine layer hanging in keeping temps down now.

Popular Post JohnS Posted August 17, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 17, 2020 La Gloria Cubana Unifree 2018 - Edición Regional Turquía LGR Oct 2018 The La Gloria Cubana Unifree is the second Turkish Regional Edition announced in 2018 but released for market in late-2019. I wrote an extensive review on this cigar around three weeks ago. I was hoping that this second one would be an improvement on the first; alas, it was not to be! Construction-wise, it was fair, however, in regards to flavours I lament to tell you that there were barely any to decipher this time. It's not that this cigar was flavourless, rather, it was more that the flavours were nondescript. Yes, they were there but they were nothing in comparison to a traditional La Gloria Cubana Medaille d'Or No.4. I was only able to decipher some wood, pepper and some tangy fruit (but only just). To say I was disappointed after finishing the cigar would be an understatement. Then again, with further research I was able to procure the origin of the peculiar name 'Unifree'. It turns out that this cigar is named after the Unifree Duty Store in Istanbul Airport. Understanding this and reflecting on the type of customer who would frequent such a business, I've come since to appreciate why the Unifree is as bland as it is, in consideration of how complex the LGC Medaille d'Or No.4 can be. The La Gloria Cubana Unifree is not a cigar for me. Likewise, it's probably not a cigar for you either. Why don't we leave it for the casual cigar smoker and/or international tourist (when planes start flying internationally again!) and hope the La Gloria Cubana Medaille d'Or No.4 returns from hiatus in the meantime, shall we? 27 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweetbread, honey, vanilla, raw cashews, cookies & cream. Hazelnut retro. Fantastic. Thanks @GVan for gifting this smoke. I'm a huge Upmann fan but this one hit it out of the park for me. Enjoyed it by the pool after doing some painting at my grandparents. Glad you enjoyed it brother ! Between you, me and @Devo we've only smoked 4 out of the box. I plan on letting these rest a little while longer - I think they will only get better and better. But, not too much longer ! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is from 2013 and still has some BALLS! Full flavor with plenty of kick. Could easily go twice as long. 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
