Going on a trip is painful; I usually work late hours getting ready to go, then have a sleep-deprived flight out. That's my excuse for traveling halfway around the world, and not realizing I was heading to edng's backyard.

Halfway through the trip, I realized I was in Eddie's neck of the woods, and called him... he dropped everything to meet up with me during the Chinese New Year. It was awesome, we went to a very nice private cigar club in the middle of Chinatown in Singapore, relaxed and had some fantastic cigars, conversation, and the girls kept on bringing us drink after drink and plenty of food.

Eddie took care of us like royalty, shuttling us around town, culminated with an awesome dinner with his wife and daughter. I'll post pics soon, I'm looking forward to coming back, Eddie! Seeya in Shanghai!

EDIT: see attached pictures!

#1 - Sunburned moki and edng
#2 - Opus X in Singapore... just $48 Singapore (about 1.12 SD to the USD) per cigar for Opus X No.5's
#3 - English regional Ramon Allones and some whiskey... mmmm

Thanks again, Eddit!

Thanks for sharing.

Your pics are grainy and BIG. I end up finding myself out of the thread when I press the 'Back' button.

Eddie seems like a great guy to hang and smoke with. Thanks for sharing, Moki!

[AnacostiaKat]

Sounds and looks like you had a great time!

Why didn't you take the quarter?

[Ironbar]

MOki, there are all sorts of free programs out there that will let you re-size your pictures to a more managable level!

Yo nimrod...

LOL, I was playing poker online with Andrew the other night and he starts typing "OMG BABY CRAWLING ON ME!!" Nothing like a baby crawling all over a nice fresh sunburn! How are ya feeling now?

[kyee]

sounds like a good time.

I'm going to try and meet up with Ed when I'm out to Singapore and Shanghai at the end of March.

Moki - did you guys go to Jimmy Ng's place for a smoke? Nice place to hang out, though the prices are pretty high.

Eddie is definitely one of the guys I'd love to meet in person. I respect him quite a bit and his eye for photography is out of this world. From what I have seen of him, it doesn't surprise me that he dropped everything. He really seems to just "get" the importance of interpersonal relationships.

Sounds like you had a great time. Very cool.
