“Hello, Kevin.”

If you’re reading this, then chances are that you are a cigar geekazoid, too. Come on, fess up, it’s okay to admit that you’re a cigar geek. You love everything about cigar smoking. Just thinking about cigars turns you into a giddy doofus as you begin to salivate like one of Pavlov’s pooches. You’re a hopeless basket case, but it’s all right – join the group.

What made me write this piece was the daily visit from my mailman. Actually it’s a mail lady and she’s pretty hot, but come on, let’s stay on track here, we’re talking about cigars and the fact that you’re an admitted freak. Or is it geek? Freak, geek, makes no difference – you need help.

So what made today’s visit from the U.S. Post Office so damned special? Well, it was a bizarre occurrence, a true once in a lifetime happening. The monthly catalog from all three cigar retail giants arrived on the very same day! Whoa baby! What the hell is the chance of that?

Now I generally get jacked up when just one of these fine publications shows up, but all three of these at the same exact time? The seco and ligero gods have smiled down upon my blessed keester. Normally when a catalog comes I take a quick peek through the first few pages just to put me in the mood. Think of it kind of like tobacco foreplay. Hey, don’t laugh, dude, I’m a geek just like you, remember? But again, getting three catalogs all at once is like the ultimate tease.
