  • 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.

Had the privilege of helping...

My friend calls me up the other day, and her boyfriend's 30th birthday is coming up, and she wants recommendations on a lighter and cutter. So, I take her to the local B&M and show her what they have. She picks out the lighter (Xikar 2 flame) and cutter (DE straight cut). The assistant says, since it's for a birthday, let's get an empty box and fill it with tobacco shavings and give it that way. The lady brings out an empty Liga #9 box. My friend then proceeds to tell me to pick out 2 sticks to put on top so that he thinks that's all he's getting when he opens it. So, I go pick out a Liga #9 Corona Doble and an Undercrown Corona Viva! Done deal!

I felt very proud that my friend entrusted me so well for this.

Any of you guys ever been chosen by friends to pick out sticks for occasions like this?

@Sean I went to Churchill's in Old Town. I was also tempted to have Ann (assistant) get me a locker to rent. Oh how far down the slope I have fell... haha.

Congrats again on Valentina!
