I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

I bought some cigars.
Following will be pics of some of them. There's a couple hundred more, but I ran out of film. These are boxes I've been waiting to buy for months, mostly stuff I was out of, or very close to being out of.
I saved up the money, but then my tires on my Envoy wouldn't pass inspection. There went my cigar money.
Pics coming up...
:)

I actually traded beads for the Old Henry's. :)

I also got my girlfriends's daughter to fix up my big display humi and it looks a lot nicer. I ordered new lights from ebay last night so I can light every shelf.
Once that's done, I should be able to take pics and apply for my Cigar Asylum Certified Completely Insane Certificate and Decoder Ring.

Dude.


Dude.


THATS SWEEET!
Nice Pick-ups, brother!! :tu

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

Shilala, you of all people should know by now- this hobby demands digital cameras. :r

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

Here's what's there...
El Cobre Torps
Litto Gomez Diez Cubano Colorado Maduro
Litto Gomez Diez Oriental Oscuro
AVO #9 Maduros
Oliva Special G Maduros
Old Henry Maduro Robustos
"Old School" Oliva Blue Band Maduro Oasis and Ovations

I also procured a couple hundred other cigars (at least) from other various sources. It's pretty much filled my everything to capacity and I have quite a mess. I've started filling boxes to make room, a few bombs will definately help. Plus I haven't sent Richard any troop smokes for a little while.

Those LGD Oscuro Orientals, they are heaven sent. Completely out of this world.
The feet are still a little wet, but I fought my way through a couple. Oh, man, are they incredible. In three months they're going to be even better. They'll probably kill me, because I plan to smoke them all in one sitting. :r

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

Nice Haul!

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

It beats the battery excuse. :r

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

I really appreciate threads like this. I can show this to the little woman when my couple of boxes show up and say, "See, at least I'm not as bad as this guy." :r

Nice pick-ups, Scott. :tu

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

I should mention that the LGD's are the best cigars in the whole entire universe.
Now I have to go cc shopping cause I really, really, really need some RS11's. :r

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

nice pickups scott,
not familiar with some of em, i.e.
El Cobre Torps
Litto Gomez Diez Cubano Colorado Maduro
Litto Gomez Diez Oriental Oscuro
but they look sweet....those oliva blues look tasty:dr

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

wow.

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

AWESOME pick-ups Scott!!

:O :O :O :O

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

Scott you are my hero. :tu

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

You suck!!!



jk

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

That's the way I like to see things done. You want them, you go and get them. That's ' Man ' stuff right there! Right on, Scott.:tu


Plenty of time for guilt and remorse later..

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

A bit of a backslide? :r

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

Please PM me where you got those LGD Oriental Oscuro's. Have been looking for them forever.

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

Dang, and I got excited when I had three 5 packs come in at once and 60 in a week.

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

Nice haul:tu

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

I just got an email from Tampa Sweethearts.
The maduros are back in stock. I got a bundle of #4's, #280's, and #50's.
They are awesome. Totally.
Got some anejos and woams, too. :r

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

Adopt me please!!!! :ss

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

Been meaning to try some of those.
I've heard good things.

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

I aspire to have a collection like you someday Scott.:tu

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

It's not really a collection. I plan to smoke every single one. :D
It's nice to have lots to share, too. :tu

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

Smokin em all tonight? That seems excessive!

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

Not tonight, but I'm gonna have one as soon as I leave the house.
Gotta go to the post office and UPS. Can't go till I get done with all my work, and by that time it might be tomorrow at the rate I'm going. :)

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

That's one heck of a haul Scott!!!!

Good luck smokin' 'em all

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

I am a big fan of the Diez, but have not had any of thier maduros . They look like a treat!

nice haul!

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

Screw that, Adopt ME first!!! I will stand guard at your humi!!! (okay, maybe lean a little on my walker)

:D

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

holy crap! NICE!

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

Nice haul Scott... I got that same email from Tampa Sweethearts and had to pull the trigger as well. Not nearly like yours though... that was more like pressing the red button in the president's office!!!

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

I just looked at those pics and got moist.
I've been smoking those Orientals at a breakneck pace. They are incredible.
I burned two today.
I haven't smoked any of the other stuff yet. I'm going to though. :)
Hopefully I'll get some more cigars tomorrow. :r
If it rains, I have to do some serious cigar management. There's cigars everywhere.
I need to get my big humi built. I might just hose it out, drag it in the house, and build it in here when it's raining. At least I can use it for storage for now.

Just bomb TripleF some more.:banger

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

He's getting shell-shocked. I have a few other botls in mind. Just asked for an address a few minutes ago. :)
I think it's supposed to storm all day tomorrow and I think I'll play cigars all day.
I've kind of slowed down on my acquisitions. I only did one box split today.
My "boxes to get list" has shrunk substantially.
It's down to this...

Sancho Panza Extra Fuerte Pamaplonas
El Originals Toro Maduros
Cuaba Divinos
El Mejor Espresso
Graycliff Double Espresso
Padilla Habano Artisans
Punch RS11's
Cohiba Maduro Magicos

I won't ever buy the Artisans or the El Mejors cause I'm not buying from CI anymore. Hopefully I can get the Double Espressos somewhere else. The El Mejors, I really don't care.
The Magicos are a pipe dream. I can't imagine paying $350 for a box of cigars. I'm gonna have to hit the lottery. :tu

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

I gotta get some of those LG's and El Cobre's. Are the LG's more available now?

MCS

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

The LG's are tough to come by, and I don't know if anyone else has El Cobre's besides Bestcigarprices.com.
I got all of them there.
I couldn't find them at any better price anywhere. The Orientals are Oscuro 08's. The Cubanos (and the rest of the 08's) are Colorado Maduro.
The 09 LGD's are supposed to come with a whole line of Oscuros, but aren't available yet.
The 09 Oscuro chisel should be completely orgasmic.
Jack Scwartz has them listed, so you can at least look at them.
If the Oscuro chisels ever truly materialize, I'll try a couple first. I know all the 08's are excellent because I've tried them all. I also had an 06 Oscuro Chisel. You never know what the 09's might be like.
Bestcigar has 06 Orientals too, by the way. I don't know if they are oscuro or colorado maduro. I think the 06 Orientals are colorado maduro though. :tu

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

Hopefully I will meet up with Scott friday, I'll take him a few things and blame it on you.:tu

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

Someone has these in the WTS section.

I saw them. :)

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

Looks like you had one of these Scott.

Nice pickups Scott. :hm you need more RS11s

Re: I had a bit of a backslide last week.
 

My backslide continues...
A couple cigar caddy's showed up today. I'm very pleased with them. They're exactly what I needed for my glovebox/emergency smoke situation.
I'll make some beadsticks for in them, and they'll work perfectly. :)
Unbelievably, I still have more stuff on the way. :wo

You are a crazy man Scott.
