Considering giving up cigars.

Dude, we have about 150 AUTHORIZED Habanos dealers here in The Netherlands. I know for sure that Tim smoked the real deal.

no offense to anyone in particular, but this is just about the crappiest thread i've read since the great "cigars bought in B&Ms are better than cigars bought off the internet" debate.
riddick - you're basically saying in your posts that unless you're a paid and published "critic", you can't possibly have any real knowledge of, essentially, any hobby or passsion you're involved in?

I just wanted to post in a thread with the words uppity and pompous being thrown around.
Carry on.

Indeed. Opinions would change faster than the speed of light.

Better yet, what about if he is not only MRN but is also both Fidel and Che?

Never been a fan of the magazine.. Quite frankly, I wish they'd just close the doors on the magazine.

:-) Why waste money on a magazine about watches and who Marvin R Shanken golfs with...honestly, I do pick up a copy and read it, mainly because its free at work, and over the last 3 years, fewer and fewer pages are actually about the tobacco industry. I think last month or the month before, "Cigar Aficianado" magazine consisted of 147 pages of writing...of which, the cigar information started around page 125...DO NOT SUBSCRIBE TO THE MAGAZINE unless you like reading about a little troll dancing about the greens with celebrities.
Now, as far as James Suckling, I will miss his articles, they were about the only true informational articles in Cigar Aficianado...I hope he enjoys his extra time...

Reading reviews from aficionado-friends are more fun to read. Their are at least 3 or more reviews a day so why reading a magazine with all the other crap which has nothing to do with cigars. It's only because the "elite" can get their booner when they see themselfes on a picture. It doens't have any surplus value.

Jame Suckling is suppose to be an upcoming weekly guest on another forum I frequent. I have plenty of questions for him.
