That’s exactly what I was thinking!God Bless Texas
Lol!I just have a sister in Tucson, now. I go there whenever I can. I live North of Chicago.
Half/Stop I can see your “chuffed to bits” as they say, and rightly so.
I had to look it up, but I’m definitely “chuffed to bits”! 
Hope you enjoyed it!
I confess. I too had to look it up!Lol!
Well, THOSE cigars are not really cigars. Try an Arturo Fuente or a Romeo & Julieta or a Macanudo.My folks smoked, never cared for it. BUT, in my younger, dummer, partying days, I'd smoke a Tiparillo or a Swisher Sweet.
I concur. I've had one on lay-a-way for a few months now.
A long time ago, at the beginning of the internet, I used to spend a lot of time on MUDs and chat rooms. The main MUD I spent time on was made by folks at University in England. I learned all kinds of cool words but some of them always made me laugh. "Chuffed" is one of them
I had a friend who would lead a sentence with "I'm well chuffed to say..."
Use to go to the Motorola campus a lot in Schaumburg, enjoyed the food there. Always wanted to go to the Museum of Natural History.
I can't drink more than two cans of it?
too funny!Learned something new today!
Just so everybody knows, depending on how chuff(ed) is used, let’s just say it can have more than one meaning. Of course I meant it in the way it was taken.A long time ago, at the beginning of the internet, I used to spend a lot of time on MUDs and chat rooms.

Maybe one of these days. My lungs and system is pretty compromised after being about a mile south of the oil well fires during Desert Storm. I get choked up with just smoked brisket!
Man, that was a nightmare. Thank you for whatever you did there.Maybe one of these days. My lungs and system is pretty compromised after being about a mile south of the oil well fires during Desert Storm. I get choked up with just smoked brisket!
I like black on black, that one is really well done. Well, now that I think about it, it is really black, on black, on blackI like it! My brother works at Los Alamos, usually when I go back home, I'll go through Portales, Roswell, Ruidoso on down to Silver City. I hate Albuquerque and Santa Fe, but I owe my brother visit, so I'll have him keep an eye out for one!
Here's one my cousin gave me from Tuscon, I love the black pottery.

Two pints is about my usual limit as well. On good days with the proper preparation and moderate temperatures I might go to 3.

Fortunately, cigars are not inhaled into the lungs like cigarettes; you just puff on them. But I understand. And thank you, Sir.Maybe one of these days.
