Mom Bombed

madurofan

So today I was bombed by my Mom, who's in town from Italy and staying with me. Just wanted to share this bc I was soooo stoked. Out of her bag came the coolest ashtray I've ever seen, its pewter with a design in the bottom and a sword handle sticking out of the middle of the tray. It has two resting places for cigars on the sword handle as well as the normal cut outs around the perimeter of the ash tray. Its sweet I'll figure out how to post a pic and put it up here. Also out of the bag came a cutter with Habanos logo on it and an ISOM Montecristo tubo!

Today is a good day .

Everyone should have an Italian mom.

What kuzi said. Everyone should also have at least one Italian girlfriend.

A good start. Now you just need an Italian girlfriend.

Used in the wrong time and place, I think that's understandable.

Exactly.. Not in the workplace when all employers ( especially state employers as is my case,) have to be so P.C. and sensitive to these issues, In the case I am stating, one used the N. word and the second responded with another slur. But among friends where no harm is intended I see the context as harmless.and without prejudice or malice.

I'm anti-PC but when it comes to work you have to be unless you wanna lose your job or get sued. I throw around mick like its my job, I figure if you are one its ok right? My wife's step-brothers are full blooded italians and we go back and forth on the mick wop jokes. My favorite was when one told me only in Ireland could the loss of one type of root damn near kill an entire country.
