Thanks to a mutual friend's urging I finally got off my lazy ass and headed out to Smoke Signals today with Jan to finally meet Drac. Holy crap did we have an awesome time. What started off as a quick errand turned into an impromptu three hour mini-herf!
We sat around the humidor as I was just transfixed by the incredible number of Litto facings that Scott has. We discussed all the different la flor lines. what we liked , didn't like, what litto would be releasing this year and so on. Jan tried unsuccesfully to call my attention away from the Litto to some jail bait looking at acids but it was litto man. I was otherwise occupied. if she had burst into flames i may have paid attention. but then only to throw her burning carcass out on the street before she ignited the littos prematurely.
At this point it was just an instant bonding of two brothers of the litto. Scott explained that he smoked 8 chisels a day. i explained that i've eaten hot dogs, rice and romein noodles to spend the grocery money on litto. he showed me his prized personalized autographed poster of litto. i explained a friend, another littoite in the deep south, had hooked me up with the same and that it was hanging over my dining room table. he explained that he sold 3% of all the chisels that la flor makes. i explained that i had wedged my dining room table into a corner and threw out living room furniture to make room for a cabinet to house more litto. he explained that he would kill for litto and i knew i had found my jedi master and a fellow littoite in the battle against the evil fuenticons.
seriously i know i'm the last man to finally get out there and my apologies to skip who's tried to drag me out there on more than one occassion but if you're that one guy who still hasn't been out there do yourself a favor and check it out. forget the fact that scott has just about any premium cigar and knows more about cigars and the business than most mortal men he's just an awesome fellow to hang out with.
and not just because he loves litto too.
