Prominentes (4/5)

  1. Fresh available cigars that are strong. Cazzie. Esplendido. What was strong when released but no longer available. La Escepcion Selectos Finos. Powerhouses in 2011, still deliver some punch. RA Celestiales Finos. (see above, but smoothing out now) Bolivar Turquinos. Pant shitting tobacco power when released. Haven't had one in years to comment on current ability to make one shit their pants. Monte 520. Initially strong as hell. That aged out within 2 years IMO. Still a great cigar Cohiba 1966. Similar progression to the LESF
  2. Pretty much every line in Lebowski is quotable. Should I just post the script? ๐Ÿ˜
  3. I think people will continue to seek out Cuban cigars. As for whom will "deliver" them, that's TBD. Habano's marketing decision to push the product into hyper luxury status to increase margins has alienated a lot of us. Add that to the crop woes that have been experienced recently, the mass exodus of skilled tobacco workers and the criminal blockade currently going on. There's not much to work with. People are in survival mode. The always late Habanos delivery schedule is now even worse. the name may survive. Brands and trademarks tend to have a good mindshare. Rebranding would be dumb. Who is behind bringing Cuban cigars to our humidors, will most definitely change, but the desire for the product will continue.
  4. This opens the path to some easy fraud. Reuse 2017/19 EL Talisman bands on to these new ones and resell for a hefty profit.
  5. Germany going 7-1 over Brazil comes to mind. ๐Ÿ˜ Argentina's only game was thuggery. Messi can only do so much. Their goalkeeper, in my opinion, should be the World Cup MVP. He held Spain off quite well and had a heavy workload. As for their post-game shenanigans, I know it won't happen, but they should be forced to sit out the next World Cup.
  6. PSD4. From 2004, 2008, 2009, 2010 boxes. Never a bad one or a even a disappointing one.
  7. I can't wait! Just discovered Haaland. What a beast. He's a dead ringer for a friend of mine too.
  8. I always thought Heenan's "ham and eggers" was a diss at the WWF crowds. He used it a lot when a heel wrestler had a "royal" gimmick. Such as Jerry "The King" lawler. Harley Race, William Regal, etc. As for Iron Mike Sharp. You keep his name outta yo goddam mouf!! ๐Ÿ˜‰ Iron Mike was a top tier jobber. Up here in Canada back in the 70's and 80's we had Maple Leaf Wrestling on Channell 11 which was kinda like WWF's Canadian minor leagues. Iron Mike was pretty much at the top there. Other jobbers like Silent Brain Macknee, who happened to be deaf, got some airtime there. Lots of wrestling hopefuls and wannabee's that never quite made it. Once in a while a WWF mid-carder would head over to squash some poor jobber. I could've sworn that the Road Warriors had an appearance. They basically came running out after their tag opponents were halfway to the ring! The ambushed them, threw them into the ring, did their finishers and left. To say this lasted over a minute would be generous. My brother's and I couldn't stop laughing.
  9. Aka "jabronies" or as Scott Hall pronounced it, "Gibrones".
  10. They also have the two La Escepcion Jars (bottom right).
  11. Rome 2009. I was just starting to smoke cigars. Saw at least 5 boxes of these in the little tobacco shop when buying singles. I think they were 295 Euro? Had I known then...๐Ÿ˜ญ
  12. Monte A's and Sir Winnies are HTF even during good times.
  13. PSD4 for me. Been smoking them since I started smoking. Haven't had a bad one. JL2's are right up there too. For the final question I went with JL2 as I'm deep on D4's.
