Way back when. I wanna read it again. In fact a few weeks ago i recieved his 'In the Shadow of no Towers'. I wasn't expecting it to be like that all.. It's nicely packaged, lots of old gems but i dunno...i guess i expected more.

Why, thank you! I'm delighted to be here. :]
I just watched the youtube link you posted in this thread, and it was truly touching! I must own this film in every format, including Betamax, laserdisc, and just the audio on 8-track.

Not a hope in hell. : )
Bought some Jordan 1's the other day. Only released in europe. It seems i can't control my addiction. I have way over 250. I can't afford them and constantly put myself in trouble.

Hey! Yep i sure did! A Bolivar Petit Belicoso Lim. Ed. 2009. Not smoked it yet.
A PUNCH Poderosos Reg. Ed. 2009. Only made for the country i'm in. Smoked it during Chelsea - Man Utd yesterday. Very nice indeed. It's my lucky brand. I tend to smoke a PUNCH when watching football (soccer).
A H. Upmann Magnum 48 Lim. Ed.2009. Not smoked it yet. Apparently one of this year's best. Quite small but i think it will be a strong one.
And i stick to my usual Romeo 2 during the day, night, as often as possible!
How are you then? I don't think i ever asked but you're in the States right?

Yes, unfortunately I'm from over there. It's been 10 years since I discovered AFX and there hasn't once been a single good electronic music show within any reasonable distance from where I live. I should move.
Those cigars sound good, particularly the small but powerful one. I love the smell of good smoke! Do you have one you would recommend to an absolute beginner?

You should get in touch with a local place and maybe bring some artists over.
I'd gladly recommend something. What are you looking for exactly? I'd say a Montecristo 4 is always pleasant to start off with. It's a little spicy at first but becomes very well rounded. A good brand to check out is Hoyo de Monterrey. One of the lightest of the brands in terms of strength.. oooh fuck wait a minute. Cuban embargo... haha shit. My fave non-cuban brand is Arturo Fuente. You can always find cubans in the states but you have to know the shop owners so they let you in on their little secret room. The net is a bit dodgy i find, but i could find out a few reliable sources.

Yeah, that embargo needs to be stopped. I've got what seem to be a couple pretty good cigar/smoke shops around me that I think might be worth checking out, but I've never actually been inside them. I was just hoping to learn a couple names to ask for, as I'm not really sure what I would like. Are there different procedures for smoking different types of cigars?

I've since got the book and it's brilliant. I'm scared to read it all because there would be no more. It's a bit different. It's funny. The artwork is nice.

"Are there different procedures for smoking different types of cigars? "
No not really. Some people i think take the whole thing too far. The cigar you choose shouldn't be too dry or too moist. If you press it lightly it should be springy but not too soft. It should be equal all the way, no harder parts or bits that seem less packed. Cigars packed too tightly can have a tight draw.. on the other hand, too soft isn't good either.
A darker wrapper usually means more fermentation. Maybe a bit sweeter. The lighter shade the wrapper is, the quicker it's been dried. Usually they still have quite a bit of chlorophyll.
Some cigars are more suited after a nice meal, others can be enjoyed in the afternoon or even in the morning. But it's all relative. A good ash is usually solid and you only need the ashtray 3-4 times. Some nutters like to leave it on as long as possible. But it doesn't always mean it was a great cigar.

All i can say is try stuff. You'll soon have a favourite shape and brand and from there you can just try more brands and compare. Go to a cigar shop where you feel the owners have a passion for cigars. They'll gladly pass on their wisdom.

Thanks for the info. Is it worse for one's health to smoke the cigars with a lot of chlorophyll in them?

I don't know. Doubt it. They were hugely popular in the seventies. Columbo nearly always has a claro or double claro.
