not sure why they didn't think of this before, but what a great way to save a little.

anyone had one of these, even pre double stick? The price is decent, but not sure if they are dog rockets or not.

I know, I asshatted that one, I was in the middle of doing an edit because I read the wrong part.

there I go again letting my brain go into idle mode...man I need to stop that.

So much for my post being witty

Maybe you should just stop trying to be witty?

If you can't be disciplined enough to save up $50 for the NST, which you've been telling us since 08/03 that you're doing, perhaps it's really not as important to you as you would have us believe.

I don't know, man. If I've learned ANYTHING since starting this hobby, it's that most of the guys on here enjoy saving a buck, but also recognize that you usually get what you pay for. The smokes in that link look like shit. I wouldn't spend $5 for them, much less $30. I don't know why.

Maybe read some reviews (badwhale's been killing it), and go with those. You can get a 5-er of Padron Maduro 3000's shipped that will kick the crap out of whatever gimmick BCP is pushing this week, and cost you less to have it shipped to you.

I don't know. If you're wanting to experience some good smokes, stop throwing away your money to crap.

Ouch, if I had feelings, they would be hurt

I do want to try the sampler, but need to stop buying the sticks that I KNOW I like for a week so I can pony up the money for the sampler

Very nice suggestion, I am actually going to the B&M on lunch to pick up a couple of the Pardrons. I just thought it was kind of a neat idea...a gimmick, I know, but a cool one.

Yeah, well, I'm pretty sure that I'm just saying what many others are thinking.

Nice to know you don't have any feelings though. Maybe they're stashed in the same place your discipline is?

If you find either one, please let me know

I don't think I'm in much danger on one count, and am caring less and less about the other.

Wow, you mean they actually let you on the little bus? Their standards must be slipping.

oh, he actually meant little bus,

I thought he was referring to the short bus.

**badwhale** · 09-04-2009, 11:24 AM

ibarney5 is that you?

Dude,

You seem like you enjoy cigars, and are pretty friendly. Again, I think you should take your time, and read around see what you enjoy and also branch out. There are lots of cigars out there to try (that aren't cheap ass dog rockets. there's lots of those too.)

Basically, in addition to the community, I've learned alot more about cigars and the board has helped guide the contents of my humidor to some really nice stuff. Not all hella expensive HTF stuff, just nice stuff. There's lots of good info on here.

I would advise you quit the spaz posting all over the place, and take your time before you hit the reply button.

So now you're gonna insult children with disabilities? You think they'd let you on that bus either?

**mail man** · 09-04-2009, 11:57 AM

Wow, sorry guys, I thought I was coming across as joking Sheesh, I wasn't trying to piss anybody off. Every one here seemed to have a decent sense of humor, and I thought I playing on that, but I apologize for any insult I may have slung.

Apology #2 in a little over a month. I think if I were you I would just STFU for a bit, I'm just sayin'.
