After-Action Report – August 21st, 2026. As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another. Proverbs 27:17
August’s BNO, our 20th year of gathering during our summer season, was held at Guadalajara Mexican Family Restaurant. We enjoyed the company of six men: Rick Mann, Charlie Clark, William Linton, Tony Knouf, Chad Schell, and Carl Crews.
Given the choice between a woman and a cigar, I will always choose the cigar. — Groucho Marx
A Very Special Thanks to:
Guadalajara Restaurant for allowing us to eat, meet, and smoke in their back room. They have been faithful friends of BNO.
Rick, who showed up early to set up The Circle.
Jose, our server, who always ensures we are well taken care of.
Charlie Clark, who continues, year after year, to provide top-quality cigars – a true labor of love and a faithful servant.
Each man, and his willingness to trust The Circle, shares from the heart and provides support to those in need.
Next BNO: September 18th, at G-Mex
For all who were unable to attend, we missed you and look forward to seeing you next month.
Two are better than one… If one falls down, his friend can help him up. But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up!… Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken. Ecclesiastes 4:9-12
