They're probably drinkin' coffee and smoking big cigars"

Hi, Lou.  Welcome to CG!  Don't mean to sound skeptical, but you show up today out of the blue and start not one, but two, threads asking about our thoughts on the negative responses in CA to one of our own member's letter to the editor.  Funny how you knew which cigar board to come to . . . I don't think that our CG brother mentioned CG in his letter.  :?:  

My guess is that you are either associated with CA or one of their advertisers, or you're a reporter.

If I'm wrong, then please call me out on it.  If I am correct, then kindly state your intentions and you will find that we are all MORE than happy to share our opinions.  Thanks!

Odds are, it was just Christopher62 trying to think of a clever way to begin the conversation. If you search the forums, you'll see he hasn't posted on CG in the last month, yet was able to post a reply in 10 minutes.

Regardless, now I, too, have to go to the mailbox to see if I got mine.

Christopher is a nice guy, I just don't understand why he would pull something like that. :confused:

Either way, its a pretty good issue.  Who can argue with an article on "The Most Interesting Man in the World"  

Strangely, i don't even remember being interviewed!

It definitely was not Christopher.  I can track that stuff, plus he's always been a very stand up guy.

I also don't see why someone would come on the site to stir this up so I think we need to give HeresJohnny the benefit of the doubt.  Not exactly a warm reception for a new member.  :-(

Wow, just makes me really want to read the next CA.  Should be in my mail soon.  Just wondering why Lou would put up an website that doesn't connect to anything?

OK. My bad. I completely apologize.

I admit, I've been a little paranoid about people online ever since that chick I met online turned out to be a dude.  :-0

We should all feel a little bad, especially me.

You might want to make sure his check clears before you start talking about Corey in such a manner. ;-)

Seriously, though, we're a pretty tight-knit community around here, sometimes to a fault.  We can be quick to pass judgment.  We're also pretty good about owning up to our errors and lapses of sensibility, so like Corey, I apologize if anything we've said has ticked anybody off.

(Thread Hijack in Progress!)

During my interview with AMD last week, I mentioned that I felt my writing skills stayed sharp because of my hobby/habit of writing about cigars constantly. I was feeling really relaxed, evidently, because I tend to stay away from the topic of tobacco with employers. You never know when you are going to lose a chance because the hiring manager is anti-tobacco...

Anyway, the next day I was told by the recruiter that they wanted to see writing samples. I sent them training work I had developed, but got a second call: "they want to see your writing about cigars" the recruiter said with a question mark in his voice...

 :-0

...so I sent them a link to my CG reviews along with their own ID and password!

I'm still wondering if they got to this review: "I suppose if you licked buttholes for a living, the flavors of this cigar would be a step up. Slightly."

Well, I started it, because I too am very protective of this site and its members.  I did welcome HeresJohnny (Lou) and then I asked a straightforward question, and I am ready to accept being tarred and feathered if I am wrong.

So, Lou, please don't let me intimidate you.  Please join us in the discussion.  As you can see they are all ready to hang me for my lack of manners.  Mea culpe! :-(
