• 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 the next few weekends 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.

    "Cuban blends" in local B&M

    Ballsey, considering how illegal it is for a B&M in the US to sell "cuban" cigars, even fakes.

    Humidor rant (kind of)

    Heartfelt also has a rectangular bead container, that's what I use. Several brothers have also used "JFire's" method, I did with my first humi a few years ago. Pretty easy.

    Clint Eastwood vs. Empty Chair...

    Agreed. Imo, it wasn't as funny as I'm sure he planned it to be; but if he was to do that bit from the Left rather than Right the media would be all over how funny it was, rather than calling him an old man rambling to an empty chair.

    Humidor Wood

    To be fair, the information he put out WAS accurate if talking about a chunk of a tree. Which, I could see how he may have interpreted your original statement to be just that.

    Humidor Seasoning Problems

    No problem! Your best option would be to just post a question again, as there are many knowledgeable people here, moreso than me.

    Humidor Seasoning Problems

    First thing you need to do is get a digital hygrometer. Analogs are notoriously innaccurate. Combine that with the salt test being easy to do wrong, and I wouldn't trust whatever number you're getting.

    Liga price increase?

    Wait, I thought the scrap cigars were priced at $6 to prevent a price hike on the cigars they were made from??

    Lance Armstrong no more!

    You can't tell me an innocent man is willing to let his name get trashed, reputation and life's work flushed down the drain, all because he's tired of fighting the witch hunt. That would be akin to pleading no contest to a murder you didn't commit just because you don't want to sit through a...

    Humidor Wood

    Spanish cedar isn't cedar at all, closer to mahogany. Most cedars are aromatic, and (I think) will expand & contract more with rh variations. Personally, I wouldn't bother using anything other than spanish cedar. But if you must, perhaps look at something like mahogany.

    Lance Armstrong no more!

    Imo, him giving up fighting the allegations is only because he doesn't have the ball to come out and admit it.

    Headaches While Smoking

    Headaches is a fairly common reaction to nicotine. It constricts your blood vessels, raising your BP. Listen to the advice Nate & Juyceman gave, with an emphasis on hydration. Being well hydrated is your best defense against a nicotine headache.

    Too Humid

    That shouldn't affect it, unless they were WAY over humidified- like dripping!
