I don't know diddly about cigars or wine, but if we're going to start talking Windex, I am all over that. I have an uncle who's neighbor's third cousin's sister-in law was at the factory when they were mixing up the lot for Costco and they were putting a paler blue die into that batch than what you'll see from your mom n pop store down the block.

I can almost guarantee you there will be no trend in either direction.

That looks to be a triple blind study, which is the strongest test in terms of causality, and is rarely used.

If I wanted to hypothesize that real bullets are deadly and blank bullets are not, I put a mess of bullets in a box. I don't know which bullet is real, and which is blank. Put gun to head, pull trigger.

If I die, I have unmistakeable proof that real bullets are lethal.

However, if I live, I don't necessarily have unmistakeable proof that bullets are lethal, as I may have drawn a blank.

I don't like to shop at some B&M's because I witnessed a guy sneeze in the Humidor.... yea... that's right, the bastage happened to be angled towards the CAO's.... needless to say I exited that place and smoked what I brought.

It's kind of like food service... just like we don't see what happens in the kitchen. You saw the guy at the B&M, but we have NO idea what happens at the warehouse, or when they are packed, etc...

Just the kind of stuff we would rather not know.

I only smoke cigars rolled between the thighs or b**bs of attractive 20 something virgins that are from cuban descent living in Miami or Cuba. Also these virgin rollers are very clean and only impart their love and super hotness into these cigars.

Jealous? I know you are.

There are some wild accusations here, and people are calling the bluff, unless something can be shown to prove that they are true, then it's not....

Hell I still smoke cc's to get high because they have weed in them.
