• BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

    I Will Never Forget

    I was at work. Heard about it first on the radio on my desk and shortly thereafter everyone in the office was crowded around the small TV in our little back storage/receiving area. You are correct. I will never forget.

    Presidential Poll

    The poll results don't surprise me very much. From my time on cigar boards, I've noticed a definite Conservative slant. I think it just goes with the territory.

    Barack Obama's 10 Point Plan to "Change" the 2nd Ammendment

    Well, like I said, there's no love lost between Obama and I and I certainly don't trust him, but thanks for the info folks. Guess I've been a little too easy on him with this stuff, mainly because I'd already written him off.

    When do you go with active humidification?

    Size of the humi more than number of sticks (though an almost empty large humi might be a different deal). Also depends on your ambiant environment. I have a 28 (or so, can never remember) bottle cooler that is chock full and I don't have any need whatsoever for active humdification. Same...

    Frusterated, need help.

    You'll just be battling between the beads. Doesn't really work well. Unless you are saying swap the 65 for 70 which is a whole different argument.

    No. What we are saying is, send me your addy and I'll help familiarize you a little more with the Marca.

    It's either a Habanos Bolivar or not. If it's not, you'll never taste the same cigar again. Search out some other Bolivars. They have a very distnict taste profile and if you like the profile in general, you'll most likley like the CG.

    There you go. Give 'em more time and make sure you are smoking cigars that have had a chance to equalize. :thumbsup:

    Presidential Poll

    Not all 7. At least one was adopted from an orphanage in Bangladesh (or did you think the mailman was involved :wink: ). John and Cindy only had 3 children. The other 3 were from his previous marriage (two of those from his previous wife's previous marriage).

    Kyleb, I live in Tampa. Our RH is always that high and I don't have this issue. Couple of things. What kind of hygro are you using? Is it the self calibrated ones? Are these new cigars? How long have they been in the cooler? If I had to guess, I would say that the cigars have not...

    Presidential Poll

    Odd because you favor Obama or odd because you favor McCain and can't believe you picked that many Obama quotes? It was a pretty pointless quiz for me as I recognized probably 75%+ of the quotes and therefore knew exactly who had said them. Also, being quotes, it just means that the candidates...

    Presidential Poll

    It's fun, but it's nothing but candidate quotes. There are better matches out there. :) It does most definitely highlight the difficulty of figureing out where the two are really different on some issues due to all the politic-speak.

    Good Poll. Hopefully we can keep any discussions regarding the validity of any particular vote for the debate room. :thumbsup:
