Bwahaha! Big announcement and a dream come true!

A very, very broad brush. I know a few cigar shop owners here locally. They are very nice stand-up people. I wish Ian the best in his new line of work.

Indeed! Jeff, who owns Racine & Laramie's is a very very stand up gentleman who has been running his tobacco shop for over 40 years, and I couldn't ask for a better boss.

Dave, who runs the joint (basically) is a man I highly respect and enjoy working with, and he's glad to have me on the team too, which makes me quite happy. They want me and the other employees to succeed, because that makes them succeed, and they are willing to help us (the employees) in any way they can so long as it is within their power.

last night, I asked one of the other workers if he even liked working there, and he just looked at me, pipe in hand, and told me "I f*&^ing love it here, man." And he meant it, otherwise, I wouldn't see him and every other employee hanging out at the shop on their days off, hahaha.

This is going to be great. Possibly the best job I've ever had, and I start sometime this week.

And again, thanks everyone for your kind words and encouragement!
