Good luck with that one Rob. I’m sure you’ll get plenty of retweets on X though, maybe even the big man himself 🙃

I think it’s a dumb idea but I also am not shedding any tears over billionaires paying taxes. Excessive concentration of wealth is bad for the economy anyway. Sorry Mike, you have a place in PA to stay anytime!

Damn "Rich" people...... you could add Cuban cigars to the list of things ruined Let the class war begin In defence of "Rich" people...they are people too you know. People supporting family's, employees, spa's, mistresses. Billionaires Tax? It seems unfair that Mike and others may soon be CaliHomeless as they leave for Palm Beach. I for one stand with these persecuted. * or rather sit with them over a long lunch. #RichLivesMatterToo Specific Things That Were Once Accessible But Have Since Been "Ruined By Rich People" https://uk.style.yahoo.com/people-sharing-specific-things-were-101602860.html

My brother has a PhD in materials chemistry from Cambridge in the UK, and he tells me NOT to do this because of the overfill/underfill risk, which risks changing the internal chemistry and providing a less-than-predictable RH. He says the only way to do this is with a scale calibrated to hundredths of a gram, to measure the pack when it comes out of the original Boveda packaging, and to recharge that specific pack only to that exact weight. I do not have the patience for this, so I just buy new ones.

There's a number of FoH members who have attested to recharging Boveda packs without issue. For myself, I've been fortunate, as I've never had to recharge any. Mine have lasted years.

Juan López Selección No.1 - ESU Jun 2024...

Pretty sure he's single.

I have had both and prefer the old school Lonsdales.

El Triunfador (no 4?) This stick has a nice dark brown wrapper on it, not quite maduro, but the color of some excellent Juan Lopez dark smokes I’ve had in the past. Maybe even a little purplish hue. The celo, on the other hand, is the color of the amber encasing the prehistoric mosquito on John Hammond’s cane. Awesome! Digging right in, the light-up puff promises notes of peat, molasses, and spiced cake. Tiny bit of pepper. The first third is dominated by that peaty moss, along with some coffee, but the finish has got an essence of Pernod. Wouldn’t straight-up say anise, but more of a juicy black licorice finish. Very interesting. So far away from CC vibes, blatantly bold. Not strong in nicotine, just full of soup. So much soup. Speaking of soup, getting some barley notes as I go along too. The second act is more meaty. Definitely some salted, crusty bark on a well-seared filet, along with some dark raisin, maybe rum raisin cake. Getting bigger in terms of strength, but not over the line just yet. Shitake mushroom at the halfway point. Mung bean or garbanzo bean on the finish, and unfortunately a lot of white pepper. Last third brings back that licorice, or maybe now it’s more of an anise. Some dark, dark molasses and roasted coffee. Definitely anise now. The strength has kicked up several notches and doesn’t let go, as I get to the last inch. Everything has become kind of muddled together, smooth though, but completely coating the palate. Rich flavors, but like I said earlier, soupy. Pepper still floating on top of everything like a little halo. This would not make a good first stick of the day. Perhaps after a steak and potatoes, accompanied with a stout or a malty ale. Enjoyable, but not really my thing. Unique, and definitely a “change of pace” cigar for me. 87

You mean the new new gold medal?

I was thinking more like this one;

Man, those knees are under some serious pressure 😅

Statins have been proven to be useless for more than a decade and cholesterol levels are now known to be irrelevant and yet, millions of people still take those on a daily basis, go figure it out... Familial high cholesterol level here too 🤝

This works.

I’ve been “recharging” Boveda packs for at least a couple of years; anybody have any comments pro or con about this? Seems to work well enough.

Porsche is a great marque, but it ain't no Ferrari. Sadly, a nice 911 gets parked with the other cars. A lower priced Ferrari gets parked out front.
