As promised, though I didn't think he was serious, Shukpaw sent me a bomb of all the cigars that he didn't like.  And there are a bunch of them but I think there are some diamonds hidden in the shyt as well as I spotted a My Father cigar in there.  I will post pictures when I can, a storm and falling tree branch literally ripped out the wires for cable, internet and phone at home and Verizon is on strike so they have cancelled the last appointment to come out and fix it.  Once I get up and running I'll lay em all out and post some pictures.  

Thanks Neil, I think..... :biggrin:

So I guess he spanked you with the shyt bomb, and the My Father is his way of saying "Who's yer daddy!!!"

I am not concerned about what you think as I can tell you don't do it often.

I used to be a people person, but then people ruined that for me.

Very nice! cant wait to see the pics.
But I really liked the name "Wish Stealer". It had a Native American ring to it. -Brlesq

A wise geek once told me that moving up from a daily smoke to a weekly or even bi-monthly smoke would be worth it, if I could learn how to appreciate a really really good cigar. -southernrun

I sent you all the cigars I had that were mentioned on the worse cigar ever thread.  I actually like a few of the cigars I sent you.  I like the mid size Thompson Humidors and they were selling them for $35 on their own or $29.99 with Thompson cigars.  I'm glad I could share the wealth.  I do hate the ACID Kuba Kuba Maduro, and I will be interested to see how you review it.  If you get a chance, do post a picture.  I should have taken one before I sent it.  I don't even remember what all I sent you.

I notice you haven't left any feedback for me.  I hope you will not let the quality of the cigars affect your rating.  Hey, 3 of those cigars cost me more than a buck.

I sent the My Father Le Bijou because I did want to send you at least one cigar I think you will enjoy.  After the one Kola sent me I bought a box.  Oh, and of course part of why I sent it was to say "Who's yer daddy!!!"

I took it was my video camera still photo option because it was next to my computer.  Then I had to reduce the image quality to get it to under 100kb.  Then I put mayo on the lens to be a prick.

The strings between the cans are too loose. Tighten them up a bit and add a wave guide made from the heating element in the old dishwasher. That will sharpen up the focus quite a bit.

Those are about the same quality as the other pictures Rich has posted before.  I would love to see his family albums!     :biggrin:

For those who can't make out the picture and so Rich knows what cigarillos I sent him, in order of Rich's picture there are:

Tesoros Cubanos Robusto
ACID Kuba Kuba Maduro
Don Lugo Natural Robusto
My Father Le Bijou Short Robusto
Encore Churchill
Victor Sinclair Triple Corojo Toro
Magicos Cubanos Robusto
Gurkha Black Dragon Robusto
La Estrella Cubana

Cuban Honeys Amaretto
Astral Favoritas
Tatiana Vanilla
ACID Krush Classics Maduro
Alta Gracia Natural Cigarillos

Rich did do a review of the ACID Kuba Kuba Maduro.  I will give him credit for doing that.

I've had a few of those:

Don Lugo Natural Robusto - not a horrible mixed filler stick as long as you don't pay more than $0.70 a piece.
My Father Le Bijou Short Robusto - had one that was great and one that was meh.
Encore Churchill - worst looking cigar ever... and top 5 worst tasting, too.
Victor Sinclair Triple Corojo Toro - I actually liked this blend when I first started smoking. Now it's a big meh.
La Estrella Cubana - Worst. Cigar. Ever.
Alta Gracia Natural Cigarillos - like smoking a twig wrapped in a blunt wrapper

I'M BACK, MF-ers!!!

Wow Neil. That's quite the lineup of low budget stinkers (except the My Father, of course).
It will be interesting to see what Rich has to say about them in the reviews! :biggrin:

Corey is right about the Encore :blech:  :barf:

The Magicos Cubanos ... I had a couple, and had to look after every puff to see if it was still lit.
Kinda like smoking air.

The LEC ... I have to disagree with Corey about how bad it is. IMHO the Encore easily beats it for worst ever.
Plus, if you don't mind letting it rest for a whole bunch of months, the LEC might turn into a chocolate bomb for you. Mine did.
