At a lecture with world famous Daryl Easton (The Magician's Magician) I was also fortunate enough to have dinner with this guy.

Daryl won the gold medal at FISM - the World Congress of Magic ( the "Olympics" of magic ), in Lausanne, Switzerland in 1982. He has been awarded 6 Academy Awards from the world famous Magic Castle in Hollywood California ( no one has earned more ).

I had the pleasure to meet Johnathan Drew, founder of Drew Estates, headquartered in Miami. In late 2006, Drew began construction of a new factory. La Gran Fabrica; at over 96,000 sq. feet, it is the largest cigar factory in Nicaragua and one of the five largest premium cigar factories in the world. La Gran Fabrica turnes out about approximately 70,000 hand-rolled cigars every day.
