"Mini" Bomb

On Tuesday I needed to go to the bank to make a deposit.  I waited for the mail to arrive in anticipation of a couple of checks.  I go out and the mailman gives me my mail and three packages.  My pass from Corey, my winnings from Bryan for the College Bowl contest, and some cigars I bought from drexeltpd.  I put it all in the car and headed to the bank.

By the time I got to the bank I was really curious what everyone had sent me so I opened the packages.  I opened the pass from Corey and on the letter he indicated there was a bomb in the box.  I tried to disarm it.  I thought about driving away to save all those other people, but it was too late.  Literally, and I mean I am not joking here, within one minute two police cars came rushing into the bank parking lot siren and light going.  Turned out someone had spotted a car they were looking for, but they made it just in time to save me and many others.  Corey, I kept your name safe so they will not be looking to you for the damage to the bank.

Corey sends me my cigars to try to identify, and I will quote him, "a mini-bomb".  We were supposed to get two extra cigars with the pass.  He sends me nine more.  There is nothing mini about a 7 cigar bomb.  Thank you.  I really appreciate it.

I'm right 98% of the time.  Who cares about the other 3%?

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

Those are:
Cu-Avana Churchill
JdN Antano Churchill - one of the two "good ones" required by the Round Robin pass
Oliva Serie V Maduro 2010 - second of the two "good ones" required by the Round Robin pass
CI Anniversary Toro
Cu-Avana Intenso Robusto
CAO Cx2 Robusto
Gran Habano Vintage 2002
Puros Indios Siembra de Oro Perla Maduro
Plasencia Organica Robusto

Enjoy! I haven't tried one of the V Maduro 2010's yet, but the Antano is pretty much my favorite blend.
The extra 7 are all cigars I got at really good prices and enjoyed, so if one of them works for you, you'll be able to find more on the cheap. I look forward to your reviews of them (hint, hint)...

Corey, nice bomb!  And if you can find the Cx2 on the cheap, you're a better shopper than I am.  I've been wanting to try them but can't seem to find them in a price range I'm willing to pay.

Enjoy your smokes there Neil ... I particularly look forward to reading your thoughts on the V maddie.

Armin - if you want the CX2, check out CigarAuctioneer.  If you are patient, you can usually score a box in the $70 range.
