Good God Man ! Just when I start thinking I had too many cigars . I now realize that I am an amateur . The only time I've ever ordered more then 1 box of the same cigar at a time was for Partagas Chico's and that was only for 2 boxes . Some day my good man I will have a cabinet of my own . Great story and pictures . And lets see a shot into the singles drawer . Pleeeaaase !

Beautiful piece shawn...

but it already looks full...

hope you kept the fridges for overflow

Through it all stands the little desktop humi.

My obsession is kept firmly in check by my credit limit. If it were not I would like to have a "collection" like that.

<<<<< amazed

and a little speechless

Congrats, Fox!

Thanks for the pictorial, Shawn! I love your stories.

Congrats on the beautiful heirloom. Whether it's the end of the slope or just a brief respite before the floor falls out from under you again, it's a gorgeous milestone in the journey.

What she said! Thanks for the interesting pics Shawn.

Enjoy that Aristocrat - it sure is a beauty.

It actually looks ..... content, satisfied, fulfilled, right ... sitting there with that great stock of cigars in it. You've given it a happy home.

Your pre-cabinet amalgamation made me laugh during a presentation....I hope you're happy ....

Lets see a pic of how nice and neat the drawer for the singles are.

I was going to "mock you" on this one, cause I think it's sweet how you say the same thing
and expect a different result. "room to grow". Hehe.
But when you actually LOOK at it, maybe you ARE done.
That wooden ark of the covenant must have cost over 3000 bucks. I WISH I had that $3000
in CIGARS. If you need space NOW, you should really look into this thing I heard about called
SMOKING. Leaves almost no trace.

Pffft. hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha....he.

It's a cigar sleeping bag.

GreekGodX · 09-16-2009, 11:45 AM

That cabinet is a perfect ending... Once there are 2 of them

Great story Shawn thanks for sharing

MedicCook · 09-16-2009, 11:48 AM
