View Full Version : Thanks @$$holes...my humi is filled up

Well, it is official, mu humi is completely packed. Thanks to the bombs, the trades, the good deals in the WTS forum, and pointing me in the right direction w/ cbid, and other places to buy! The emotions I am feeling are so mixed, I am very confused. I felt proud at first, like a father watching his son become a man...but the it hit me, what do I do now?
I was warned about getting a humi 4x what I thought I would need. I was gonna get a 100ct but went with a 400ct...I followed the rules, but still I should have gone bigger.
I only joined in Feb. but since then I have tried many great cigars, met some amazing people, interacted in trades, contests, and PIFs. I look forward to maintaining activity on the Asylum, meeting more people, and smoking even more great cigars.
Thanks to the TOE, and thanks to the many friends I have made. I still have not been able to make it to a herf but I am trying my damnedest! So to all that have helped me, advised me, bombed me, traded with me, and just talked to me....CHEERS and thanks! :wo:wo

I am almost glad I do not have a larger humi...I would be broke. My advice to you would be to smoke more cigars. Three a day can make a huge dent in no time. ;)

And I have to give a special thanks to Andrew, talk about throwing someone off the damn slope! Andrew hit me with some much stuff it is unreal. I would be smoking with no Ronson, no Stinky, and far fewer sticks without his help. To a great BOTL and friend...cheers brother. :al

I took me forever to figure out.. I was looking through the pictures the same way I do when I look through Where in the World is Waldo books (not that I read those anymore or anything!)
He was referring to the heartfelt beads in the nylon stockings wasn't he?

I'm sure u've already checked but just incase.. Craigslist.org has a bunch, not sure about the pricing though. Just checked through quickly and theres a Vino 28 bottle for $130 (http://orlando.craigslist.org/for/1179880852.html). Not sure what size you're looking for though and what you had in mind for pricing.

When I started on this forum back in the silverback days I had a 20 count for years, never thought of going bigger. Now I have coolers, a cabinet, and a mini tower in my living room. :ss Never been happier.

OH yeah looks like you can fit another 30 cigars in the top part alone.

Every time I get new cigars, I seem to have to take inventory of everything and reorganize it in some crazy fashion. I've learned just get enough space where it is impossible to fill it all so that way you don't have to worry about any tetris :tu If that is possible:r

I feel you. I smoked a cigar here and there every now and then but not on a regular basis for a few years. I bought a humi just to keep a couple on hand. I think it was advertised as a 40 or 50 count but of course it didn't hold that many.
All of a sudden my affinity for cigars inclined and my hobby picked up to 1-3 cigars a week. I found places like this and started visiting c-bid and all of a sudden it was full. No biggie. I upgraded to a 100 count, held on to the old one for overflow until i loaned it to a friend, frequented CA more, frequented c-bid more, and now the new humi is full.
It's a slippery slope, but I haven't lost my footing. I will maintain my ground.

The nice thing is that you will always have something to enjoy when you want a smoke.You have several brands and sizes,you can change up so it never gets boring,and you can try one of each brand as they mature,so you can learn about how cigars age.The best part of all of it is that you have lots of new friends who are glad you joined this site,and who you can chat with and enjoy for a long time.We are all very glad to have met you ,and we hope you have a great time with the experience.One day it might be you who is greeting a newbie,and the circle will be complete.......Garbandz
