Poor Nik, he'll probably disappear this weekend :(

And be posting Monday with stories about how the FBI had their way with him for having contraband materials in his possession.

Not a word yet about how you are flouting the embargo.

hmmm...

If you like those I'd reccomend trying to get your hands on the Partagas Serie d No.4

They're a perfect cuban IMO.

There are several non-cubans that are just as nice as those RyJ's. Try a Padron 3000

Actually I've got one of those RyJ's in my Coolerdor... maybe I'll break it out for my anniversary.

Bender: You seem a tad wound up buddy. And your face is greasy... real greasy. You been up all night?

Fry: Of course I've been up all night! Not because of caffeine, it was insomnia! I couldn't stop thinking about coffee! I need a nap. *Snores and snaps awake* Coffee time!

Bender: *Getting out cigar* Ah! Mighty fine smokable!

Fry: Fancy cigar. Why don't you smoke it already? Puff puff go go go go go!

Bender: Nah, you can't blow smoke from such a majestic stogy in just anyone's face. I'm saving it for the fancy pants at Zapp Brannigan's black tie reception. You comin'?

[Fry nods jitterily.]

It's not illegal to possess. It's illegal to import or bring in to the US. I wasn't the one who brought it in and I don't know who was so I don't give a flying four letter word for copulation about it. :)

:roll: It's just a stupid political who-has-the-bigger-balls contest. There's no reason we should have a trade embargo against Cuba.

I got me some of those sitting in me humidor...

mostly for company that enjoys a cigar now and then..

Awesome. I'd never had one before last night. It's going to be hard to refuse anything but these from now on, but I'd say it's almost worth it even though I can't get my hands on many very often.

No kidding... I spent a week on training in Montreal in the summer (BTW, Training is French for "Let's all go to the nudie bars, and blow off training"), and as they still allow smoking in clubs and bars, I got re-acquainted with cigars... i must have smoked a dozen or more....

I'll make sure I keep a few in reserve if you come to Canada... :p

They're not that good.

They are good. They're better than a lot of more popular smokes. They blow away some of the most popular.

It all depends on your perspective. For most people that's a damn fine smoke. It's silly to dispute that. If you've been around and tried lots of different brands, then perhaps it's part of the mean, but honestly it's still a good cigar.
