    @danielzreyes don't leave, ya giant goober. Who the hell else is gonna use as many kick ass portmanteaus as you? Brozzito, biznacho, brojito. 

    I am am sure your peanutbuthurt is all stage acting n poop. We're it up to me, you would get an Oscar nod. But dammit, this is Leo's year.

    You know we manhugz you in spirit on this forum, oh purveyor of sock prawn, wielder of the exacto blade of justice, oh stogie stand sorcerer, extraordinaire.

    To put it simply, If I don't get to read 'got any opus?' On every double post, this place will feel like a lesser home. 

    Keep on being you, ya giant Kelner nerd!

    Your no help. Your days are numbered. Still acquiring ammo but better start sleeping with 1 eye open.

    One LAST thing.  I appreciate this statement, @jarubla. Reading this made my day. I read it twice because it truly touched me. Thank you.
     I'm blessed to be part of this forum.  However I have probably offended too many with my shenanigans. 

    Ok like super for reals now. I'm leaving. Good bye all.

    I'm never sure how much of all this is BS, but I'll throw in  my .02.

    First, if stems = flavor, it's news to me, except maybe dry, bitter flavor.  When I find a cigar I hate, I sometimes get the Swiss Army knife out, and usually find big chunky stems.

    Second, maybe it's that I'm in a medical field, or maybe it's just the little kid in me, I look closely at DZR's work, because I'm curious and find it fascinating and I could not possibly bring myself to dissect a really good cigar, so I'm glad he does.  It's interesting how it comes together.

    So, slice on X-acto Man!  You're a hero!  Thank you for your sacrifice.

    In my opinion you are an a$$. No honest botl would ever do that to a cigar let alone to a Davidoff. Your disrespect of the individual that sat at their table and rolled that cgar is inexcusable. Just my oinion. Don't expect everyone to agree with me. 
    Well, some folks are interested in the construction of such things, so no, he's not an a$$. Kind of not cool to go to the name calling.

    Then you basically call anyone who would do such a thing "dishonest". Hmm.

    As for disrespecting the person who rolled the cigar, mistakes are made or people get complacent.So if a person chooses to cut one open, they paid to choose what they want to do with it. 

    Personally, I actually like seeing what cutting one open shows in its construction. 
    It either re-affirms what I think of a brand or shows me something new.

    Just my opinion.

    Some of the guys knew and I apologize for not letting others know, but I've been down and out fellas.
    I messed myself up pretty good in November and am just now getting full use of my left hand. 
    Funds being as they are, internet kind of took a back seat until we can get back up and running.
    I'll try and pop in as I can.

    Sorry to hear that, brother! I was not on here for awhile due to work/life issues, but I missed the craziness so I had to pop back in. Glad to see you and I hope you get back up and running soon.
