Ahh... so I guess that Dom is overkill a bit... That's too bad - I already had one set aside for you. :D :sign: :sign: Thanks for having me, - Oak

Couple basic questions: 1) What's the approx. value of this thing? I had no idea - and I have lot's of goofy things to choose from, and want to choose appropriately. 2) How do these come packaged? Were all 10 in a single box of some kind? Is each in its own box? Also, on the off-chance...

I'd like to be in, if you'll have me... Cheers, - Oak

OK - you asked for it... I'm going to give the opinions from the perspective that I would if one of my graphic designers presented these internally (to just me and other team members) at a comp review in preparation for a client presentation later on in the day or something: 1) If one of my...

Not to thread jack - but how would you describe the Sancho Panza Belis - what kind of taste profile, how strong, etc? I've actually never smoked any Sancho Panza for some reason - I'm not sure why - just never heard anything one way or the other about the brand since I've taken up the burning...

Any public answer to this question? I was wondering the same thing myself... - Oak

One of my hero's favorite lines: "Bite my shiny metal ass." One I've actually used at my last job: "Oh yeah? How about I throw you through the nearest wall?" Cheers, - Oak

All '03s - or do you have options for things with a few years on them? My answer would really change depending on that info. I really like the Diplomaticos from around 2000/2001 - they are smoking quite well right now. The Dip#2 and the Monte#2 are pretty similar cigars, IMO (at least from...

According to IMDB - she is set to play a recurring role of someone named Nicole Lupertazzi. Don't know who this is - can't remember a reference to her in the past - but that's Carmine's last name. Perhaps little Carmine's wife, I'd guess? - Oak

I'm not saying the Oasis is the best solution here, particularly from a price standpoint, but don't rule it out due to questions about its performance - they work beautifully as far as I've seen and I've never heard a negative review about them except in regards to the price. Cheers, - Oak

I've only smoked a handful of davidoffs and dunhills (cubans) - so I can't help much - but don't forget about the Haut Brion's - one of the more flavorful davidoffs, from what I have read/heard - and my experience with 1 did agree with that. Since you favor flavorful/strong sticks, you need to...

It's not a tough show to catch a rerun of... FX knows when it has something better than the rest of its lineup... It airs every Tuesday at 10 and 11pm; Friday at 11pm; and Sunday at 10pm (all EST). Those are just the standard times, it also seems to show the previous week's episode in 3-4...

Sopranos and the Shield are the two shows that got me to turn on my TV during prime time again... Very good season opener on the Shield - they're diving right in and not screwing around. Doesn't have the subtlety of the Sopranos, but just as engaging, IMO. Who would have imagined this from an...

Hey man... I think that butt is actually attached to this famous "butt actor" in hollywood - who happens to be male... BWHAAHAAAHAAA!!! OK - Did I ruin it for ya totally now? :D ;) :D Actually - Word On Another Board (tm) is that was actually her butt... so take heart...

(For all those that aren't Soprano's fans/geeks - I apologize in advance - and no, I'm not this way all the time!) I enjoyed the show and think the season looks good. David Chase appears to enjoy employing foreshadowing and symbolism with all the subtlety of a rain-storm of anvils... here's a...

OK - now that was funny...! Here's my contribution: My 3 favorite cubans are changing from week to week, but here are my current top 3 - all 3 recently torched: 1) Dunhill Havana Club ('87)* 2) Upmann #2 ('95) 3) Bolivar Royal Corona ('96) *To anyone who claims these were crap in the...

Up in Smoak ver.1 was a success... Interestingly, no one from either of the two boards I advertised it on showed up - but 7 different people showed that had heard about the herf through word of mouth and email. All 7 were hard-core collectors, and as far as I know - don't belong to any of...

:lookup: :0 Now that gives me the shivers. Illustrates my initial comment that my opinions are limited by my experience... man, that story boggles the mind. :angry:

Yup - My comments were entirely centered around attitude and respect. IMO - that is entirely what this thread is about - and only by fostering a culture of the right attitude and overall respect - we'll just apply rules upon rules until this whole process has lost everything that makes it...

Just wanted to post a quick notice for folks anywhere near the washington dc area... come play some pool and smoke some cigars next weekend (saturday)... Here's the main thread: Click Me! I've got a couple folks from here and a couple from CW, but we need more! Spread the word to anyone you...
