If you're interested in these, then check the weekly special on JR's website (they just put it up).

I never really gave these much thought because the regular RyJs don't impress me much. But when these showed up in JR's latest list of specials, I got to wondering if they are any good. JR says, "It begins spicily and builds in power with each puff - making it the strongest Romeo y Julieta...

Sorry for being “snippy”. Today is not a good day. When you dismissed my post because “the (advertised) cigars do not claim to be Cuban”, I assumed, that you were unaware that it discussed Dominicans (the subject of your thread) and not Cubans. Therefore, I followed up with clarification of...

WTH!!! That's not funny :angry: You scared the cr@p out of me!! Ok, it was a little funny :D :D :D I'm glad it turned out OK Dave. I guess we won't be seeing much of you on the board anymore. Now that the business is gonna come rolling in, and keep you busy 24/7. :)

Here, for anyone that doesn't want to "click" Quoted from CA website: "We're going to call this band a "hybrid counterfeit," for lack of a better term. It's intended to look like the genuine Cuban Cohiba pictured at top, but it claims Dominican origin. The only Dominican-made Cohiba that may...

did you even READ the link? It is discussing the fact that any yellow dominican cohiba is absolutley BS :angry: EDIT: I'm saying they are BS :angry: (but, what do I know? ;) ) CA is saying they are "Illegit"

I'm no expert. . . But I can point you to one (an expert that is). . . http://www.cigaraficionado.com/Cigar/CA_Co...,3391,6,00.html

I did, I did, I did. . . and now, for that, I am sorry. :p I was thinking something more along the lines of: Should Martha go to jail? The ways in which a Hyundi Elantra is better than a Ford 350 (or vice-versa). What was the real reason for the civil war? I had no idea I would be ambushed...

Ahh!. . . but, the point I've made here is the only point I've ever raised with regard to Opus Marketing (refering of course to the same discussion in the other thread). By all means, I would love to entertain any dispute you may have. Indeed, I've been waiting for two days and across two...

What part do you want to figh. . err. . I mean. . . debate about? Whether Global warming exists? Whether sheep gas contributes to it? Whether microbes can be eliminated from sheep guts? Whether sheep milk will taste better once the microbes are eliminated? My goodness, this one is way too...

Not only does it work. That's exactly how it works. Lumberg probably isn't the only person who told his buddies that the Opus were available. Once the word got out that JR had them, everyone probably went running over there (or called their wives from work and sent them over there). Moreover...

Anthony, You are gonna get fat just sitting and watching. Put down the popcorn and that big foam finger, and get in the game. :D :D :D :D Actually, maybe this game has been played out. Let's do another one. Somebody make a debateable (but not controversial) statement in the lobby, and...

Actually, Marketing is the product. The product is marketing. The two are inseparably fused. Wait, I see where you are coming from. You have confused Marketing with Advertising. :p :D

:lookup: I don't recall saying that. ??? I said "Marketing is creating an absolutely superior product . . ." I don't think you need to brainwash people into liking a superior product. :) Now, if on the other hand, you are saying, that I am implying, that Fuente has brainwashed people...

I think you misconstrue what marketing really entails. Marketing isn’t making fancy ads or catchy jingles. Marketing entails everything that you are crediting Fuente with. Marketing is getting the public to equate your name with quality. Marketing is creating an absolutely superior product...

Your Viper v. Neon analogy is flawed. First, a viper has nothing to do with a neon in the sense that they are marketed to two completely different classes of consumers. Second, if someone wants a viper and can afford a viper they can have a viper. The car analogy is workable however. Let’s say...

That’s debatable. I would argue that the Opus rarity and mystique does in fact translate into more money for Fuente. You are too focused on what profit they may or may not make per box of Opus. But, that concern is irrelevant. Opus, via its rarity and excessive retail pricing, has been...

Agreed, it all comes down to opinion. I concede that since you are the author, it is quite plainly your opinion, alone, which may be attached to the usage of the word. Thank you for the opportunity to engage in debate on the matter. I genuinely enjoyed the exchange, and you were most gracious...

When determining an author’s intent, one must first analyze the contemporary application of the word(s) used. To say that Marx’s definition of Bourgeois is the accepted form of the word as used in the 20th and 21st Centuries would not be a misrepresentation. Additionally, the word has been...

Ok, amusing it is. :thumbs: Just not contradictory. ;) It's not a big deal, I just wanted to let you know because there are some people around here who get all uptight when they see improper use of words, or punctuation (especially possessive apostrophes ;) ). You’ve got to watch your butt...
