    Been a while...

    It certainly has been a while for me; I apologize. However, I finally was granted the chance to take some time and enjoy stogies! I made a trip up to OSU to watch the championship game (what game? that never happened? :r) and my buddy Trevor (thunderbucks) and myself took an afternoon at the...

    HELP: Winter Storing

    So I have come to notice that most (if not all) of my smokes seem to be somewhat de-humidified and/or molding. This doesn't make a whole lot of sense for I THOUGHT that mold was a direct indicator of an excess of humidification. The smoke I had tonight was OK except for the wrapper basically...

    An excellent return home! Thanks Advil!

    After the "long road home" from EKU last night, I noticed a strange looking, small package on the kitchen table. I went on to find my name written across the front. BOOM! Abdul (Advil), a fellow young guy in school let me have it good... Along with an interesting note :r, I received: a...

    Thanksgiving and a QUESTION

    Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! I hope that I am not out of line when I ask about Pre-Embargo Cuban Cigars... How are they? Are they typically legitimate? I joined my family for a Thanksgiving meal at a nearby country club and noticed these 'gars for sale. I decided to pick a few up and (not...

    At the moment...

    I am visiting back home from school at Eastern Kentucky. At the moment I am relaxing on my back porch overlooking our placid lake. There is not a single cloud in the sky, the climate is very enjoyable (a crisp 62 degrees) and no wind to report! I have accompanied myself with an Oliva 'Serie...

    Calling all BOTLs! Tips/Help on HumiProject!

    I suppose we could even include some FAQ's. My winter break is in about 1.5 months and I am excited to be away from this confined and smelly dorm room! I was thinking about taking on a small project to keep me busy over the winter break. After viewing a few threads about personal projects...

    Who was the last...

    The title was created to draw gorillas in. Did it work? :tu Well, I haven't posted up a thread in quite a while. (Extremely busy with school and such) I decided to fire up a little discussion in here. Sorry about the lack of participation! WHO was the last person you shared a stogie...

    Winnings from JayCarla!

    As I return to my hall after feeling not so hot about a very recent algebra quiz; I notice a pink slip in my mailbox. My day is immediately made a little bit brighter because I know that the pink slip stands for a package. I may go further to include that the package stands for stogies won...

    How many times a day...

    I noticed something this morning. Reading through a few threads, there were at least three (3) gorillas that admitted to smoking 5+ stogies per day! I thought to myself that this is insane. Beyond the obvious tendencies for cigars to break one's bank (avg. $6 per stick at 5 gars per day =...

    Looked in my box and BOOM!!!

    A while back Triolent (Ian) and I began talking because I intend to head up to OSU at the start of next quarter. We thought maybe we could get some herfs organized. Anyway, I went on talking about how I've never been able to pick up an OpusX from any B&M I've visited. Ian responded that...

    My smoke in pictures... Therapy

    I've had a very, very bad past few days... Events I'm not proud of, events I couldn't control... I did, however, find the time to sit back for an hour or so and enjoy a cigar with my buddy. For awhile, everything seemed to be okay. Here's that experience in pictures. The Smoke: The...

    The Pick-ups. Yum.

    So about two days ago I started a thread asking for suggestions on what to stock up my new humi with. Well... I have tried a couple dozen different cigars from my beginnings way back in... oh... lets say Decemberish?... Haha, anyway I think that some gorillas mis-understood and thought I was...

    From nothing to something...

    Having mooched off of my roommate's humi space for the past few months, I have just finally ordered a nice 100 ct. from cuban crafters. This arises a problem, as of 11:30 PM two nights ago, I have not a cigar to my name. What the hell is a brand new humidor going to look like cigarless...
