Nice one..congratulations..!!

Again, relative values are usually close, but absolute values are usually all over the map. Usually.

Much respect and my sympathy to you and family, Ed. I cannot imagine the loss.

It'd be very interesting to know what they are using....

Lots of us carry daily, but a random shot is tough to get around. Ed, I'm so sorry for your, our loss. Best regards...

These monsters look like beast smokes, but it turns out nothing could be farther from the truth. And, I'm not a big fan of big ring sticks so how I ended up with a box of these is probably attributed to bourbon...🤣 But the simple truth is these are phenomenal smokes. Wrapper is just gorgeous...

An interesting fact (at least to us nerds...😁) is that almost all sensors in the lower price range, be they RH, temperature, weight scales, even volt ohm meters, etc. are typically VERY accurate with relative measurements, but poor in absolute value. Meaning, if your RH sensor says 65.5 then...

Sorry to hear you're having troubles with the Govee. I just checked, their RH accuracy is listed at +/- 3%, so in theory for 65% actual, you could have one reading 62% and one right next to it reading 68% and be in spec. In practice, they seem to run much better than that. I salt test mine and...

...oof. I've wiped tiny mold spots off the wrapper before with DI / colloidal silver mix, but hairy feet....yuk. DOA. We've all had it happen, dammit....

Such awesome cigars...I'm buying more bundles, next time...

Congratulations on the win...!!

....did someone say 'live'..?? Not super polished, but i really like this one; reminds me of my time at the console running FOH (front of house) in good sized rooms. Love the guy in the audience who yells "ROCK ON!!" just before they hit it....🤘

Nicely done..!! Hard to imagine a better target..... :cool:

...respect. There are some amazing folks here. Enjoy fully and PIF when you can. It keeps the wheels going 'round...😎

....no more. Policy is to not delete or edit posts; personally, I'd appreciate it if you guys would edit his quotes out, but that's just me. No politics, and no rage bait seems pretty simple. Just saw this, sorry it got to that point. Lastly, it's always better not to pour gas on the fire, as...

Congratulations, dawgie...!!!

....how do you know if you don't try, right..?? SI had a great 10 pack deal on 5 of the most popular Camacho cigars at ~$5.50 a stick. Heck yes, let's try them. This one, the Camacho 'Equador' is going surprisingly well. Really smooth, a little bite on the front of my tongue, but....a very well...

....see, this is how the seasoned smokers here can be a tremendous help to the new guys. The hot ashy part goes INSIDE the ash tray, not all over the counter. Follow along for more valuable tips...🤣

Thanks for letting me play along, gentlemen...!!

Happy Birthday...!!
