Very tidy, MarcL. The Montecristo band is actually a dark brown. My photo of it looked brown to me, until I looked at your black one. The effect has to do with unconscious assumptions about the illumination and reflectance. (Remember the gold and blue dress?)

How Cute is This?

Today, I received a gift from my brother that included a mix of cigars. Among them was this El Oso cigar, made in Miami, Florida.

Given the apparently straight muzzle, I'm going to call this a black bear (rather than a grizzly). Given that it's wearing a crown, maybe it's a Yogi Bear.

El oso is Spanish for "bear."

I'd think a yogi bear would wear a dhoti, not a crown.
