Exactly...just yet another law on the books that will do absolutely nothing to what it's trying to prevent, but will increase the incremental cost of grocery stores or convenience stores doing business.

Got tired of carrying around the charger and having the battery run out when I need it most. Bought two of the white earphones with microphone from the Apple store, keep one the in car, one at the office. I don't miss that stupid bluetooth.

Great place for a wedding. A buddy got married on the beach in Playa del Carmen, and it was great. You'll see a ton of fake cigars away from the LCDH.

Check your local Petsmart or such store. I've seen it there.

Bleh, I have more fun checking the mailbox everyday after I've made an order.

There are some pretty dramatic time lapse videos on Youtube of this fire. News reports now saying they've determined it was human caused.

I find that the sick period varies widely...even between different vitolas within the same marca, even from one box of the same cigars to the next (of different date). Bottom line is, you just have to periodically try a stick from a sick box to see if they are coming out of it.

When I first started with cigars, a big Macanudo would make me feel it in the gut a bit. But that tolerance builds up over the years. Now there are only a couple of cigars (both CCs) that do that: Bolivar Coronas Extras and Vegas Robaina Don Alejandro. The Boli CE is particularly hard on my...
