Hi Mark, good to be back.

Hi Sam, things are going well, thanks.

Since no one has mentioned this, I thought I would. You will need to have one years worth of cash to cover all of your expenses, i.e rent, payroll, utilities, interest on your bank loan. 90 percent of new businesses fail because they are under capitalized. If you cannot come up with a years...

Cuban cigars are not any better or worse than Nicaraguan or Dominican ones. They have a unique flavor because of the soil the leaves are grown in. Many people enjoy the taste of Cuban cigars over other countries because of their unique flavors, but there are many people who would rather smoke...

Thanks Null, everything here is nice and calm.

Boomer52, nothing ever happened when I got the letters from US Customs. Luckily I never got one from OFAC. I heard those letters are not something you can just ignore like the ones from Customs. The worst letter I got was back in 1998 when me and a buddy had a 12 box order seized by US...

I got into pipes back in 2001 and spent a lot of time trying all kinds of different pipes to see which ones I liked the best. After a number of years adding to my collection and then thinning it out, here is the list of my favorite pipes. Former Winslow Barbi Castello Radice Dunhill Viprati

Thanks LilBastage, good to be back.

If you are looking for something totally different than the blends you have now, here are a few suggestions. Escudo Rattray's HALL O' THE WIND Astleys No. 109 Medium Flake G.L. Pease Haddo's Delight

I have gotten some fantastic deals on estate pipes at Ebay. The way I price them is the following. if a pipe retails for 600.00 new, then cost is 300.00. Once it is used I take the 300.00 and divide by 2, making the cost now 150.00. if I can buy the pipe for that amount or lower, then I...

I am lucky in that about 8 miles from my home, there is a tobacconist called Benningtons. These guys are old school, and one of the brothers is an old time pipe guy. For 6 bucks, I take a pipe in and this guy cleans it, polishes it and basically makes the pipe look brand new. I usually take...

GL Pease is probably my favorite line of pipe tobaccos. They have so many different varieties, I never get bored smoking them. The Odyssey is one of my favorite blends along with Haddo's Delight and Tribute from 2002. I probably have 20 or more tins of various Pease blends that have been aging...

It is most likely that the problem occurred at your local lounge and not in Cuba. 72-76 is a guarantee that beetles will hatch. I doubt the store owner will set the proper temp ( below 68 degrees), it will cost him too much money. I would take your Cuban cigars out of the store and put them...

I've had 6 letters over the years, the last one being in 2000. All were the standard one from US Customs. I hope your vendor made good on the cigars. I personally do not do business with vendors who do not guarantee delivery.

Those bands are a complete joke, your friend got ripped off. If you show him this thread and he still proclaims they are real, then there is no hope for him.

My favorite bang for the buck Cubans are the Upmann Corona Major A/T and the Partagas Corona Senior A/T. Both are hand made and can be bought for a little more than 4 bucks a stick.

Hey buddy, it was great seeing you today. Thanks for the great smokes, it has been a while since we had gotten together and I look forward to doing it on a regular basis.

Some of my all time favorite fucks were red heads. Everyone single one was kinky and they were insatiable. I don't know if it is the red hair or what but I never had one that didn't perform like a champ. I remember this one who after swallowing a load could tell you if you had meat, chicken or...

Having watched the Red Sox blow a 14 game lead in August of 1978, I have been saying all year the Yankees will make a run and the Red Sox will be lucky to survive. My prediction is coming true.

What a find, the rarest of all Cohibas, even more rare than the 1492's........what a score. lol
