BPP I want some raisins. Can I have some of yours?
Don't let Monica ride shotgun unless she's wearing her panties, which probably isn't often. :smiley4:Quote:

In my experience, a band that moves freely on the cigar is the hallmark of a well-aged stick.
Provenance...
:b
in most cases,the band that moves too freely was probably meant to be put on a larger ring gauge cigar...or,the guy that put it on ,put it on too loose....
Now that I've gotten a lot more experience smoking cigars, I'm ready to create my own blend. What cigars should I use as source for my filler, binder, and wrappers? I am prefering something in a Honduras Maduro, but I don't want to rule out something Spanish.

BPP, I need your help. I placed my H. Upmann next to an Olivia in the humidor some time back and they married. This never happened before with other cigars, but apparently, this particular Upmann had a big long vein and a larger ring gauge than all the other cigars in the humi.
At any rate, one day I found the Upmann had moved over next to the Havana Honeys and started frequenting the Rum Runners. The Upmann had removed it's band. Now the Olivia tastes sour and bitter and the cigarillos are developing problems.
What to do? What to do? :smiley5:
first point....it's OLIVA....you're sneaking an "i" in there....they tend to be sluts,and upmanns are not choosy......just be happy they didn't make a mi cubano....if ever there was a short bus cigar.......
That's a relief. Thanks for the help fellas.

Huh..... I never made the connection...
Thanks Mr. BPP, you're a lifesaver! :smiley31:
top for all the newbs.........and because i'm an attention whore.......
I have a problem. Maybe you can provide some advice!:smiley20:
A guy on this board told me to try Hemmingway Short Story. I found a great deal from a guy who swears they are real, but because that brand wasn't allowed in Canada, he said he had to remove all the bands and package them in a plain cardboard box. He sold me 200 cigars for $25 USD and only added on $250 for shipping and handling.
- Did I get a good deal?
- What end should I light??
- Will it matter if there's Scotch tape on some of them to fix the cracks in the outside?
newfienoob.....yes...you got yourself one heck of a deal....and a good thing is that you can and should light either end.....regarding the scotch tape...it is an old nova scotian custom...obviously they didn't have paste,so they used the tape instead.....
i do suggest you take a few hours and read this entire thread...lots of really good,inciteful info.....
:smiley20: :smiley20: :smiley20:
Awesome info BPP. Thanks for the superquick reply.
One more question, if I may.
If this is such a good deal as you say, I shouldn't have any trouble trading some for some of those ISOM I read so much about, or those fancy Opus ones.
I've searched lots of sites for ISOM and can't seem to find that brand. Any ideas where I'd find some????

you can pick up some super deals right here...right now....go get 'em!!!...
I have some pre embargo Davidoffs that my friend found in between his couch cushions. They are extremely dry. One of them is even cracking a bit.
1:When I take the cigars into the shower with me to re humidify them, do you recommend I use Zest or Irish Springs soap?
2: After I have humidified them am I ok to use Scotch tape on the broken one even though I live in western Canada?
3: Will I need to give the foot of the cigar a Pedicure in order to fetch maximum profit from the sale of these beauties?
I hope you can find the time to answer my questions and I will thank you in advance for any advice you can give!:smiley31:
interesting storage...between your cushions.....not uncommon,actually....scotch tape is always a good fixer-upper....pedicures would only be an option if selling the cigars to a woman.....
...oh...and the soap choice??.....i'd suggest l'oreal shampoo....
I just spent a half an hour looking directly into the sun...Now I can't see shit...Please help!!!:smiley37:
my friend says it burns when he smokes his cigars while using the rest room. Should I...I mean he flick the ashes in back instead or will that affect the development of the flavor?
Thanks!

don't EVER smoke in a bathroom...tell your "friend"....cigars readily accept the scent of urine......did he...errr,you...notice that the flavor had hints of leather,roast beef and piss??....
I was looking for enlightenment.:smiley40:Quote:

Dear bigpoppapuff, I really need a personal trainer. I am very motivated and I do get out an exercise every day but I am still fat! Please help what should I do?:smiley19:
fat smash diet or south beach.....similar concepts and sane...lots of water and work out 3 days each week and don't forget cardio.........or forget it all and buy larger clothes and stop batheing...
Oh BPP Sage... need some hard advice please... have my in-laws coming in a couple weeks... for some reason, everytime I see them, I develop a tick and swear endlessly like I have Tourette Syndrome. They're coming for a long weekend... what should I do? :smiley5:
ooh ooh, me, me! Can I take a crack at this one oh wise and all-knowing BigPoppa?

Fire up a stogie and just say whatever comes to mind. Never take the bunny suit off - if they try to make conversation, just reach in your basket, and ask 'em if they've seen your fuckin' eggs!
Yep that should work the only time you should be seeing them after that is on visiting days at the nearest psychic ward!:smiley27:

Hahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!"
The bunny suit must be pink, a la Christmas Story.
ah.......good advice from all of you......
...please think of me as they carry me off in a stretcher...
