The Dan MacDonald Show

Alright! A while back I asked you to guess the total of coins in the big ole bag of change I found doing some cleaning. Guesses were all over the map. I myself guessed $67.77 - and I was way off! Drumroll please... The final coin tally was a whopping $160.74! Wow! The closest guess without going over was Deb Fiddick John Schieven - who was $5.24 off with her guess of $155.50! ... I’ll be inboxing you shortly! Thanks for playing everyone! That was a mother load of change! See more

Random question: I don’t smoke cigars - never wanted to - I don’t care who does - but, ever notice the language, the style, the... adjectives!!... that cigar enthusiasts write with when describing cigars?

What do you get out of it? Taste? Some kind of legal... cigar high? What does it taste like? Is it a status thing? I’m honestly truly intrigued. This blog made me chuckle. See more
