    I would definitley age the RP Olde Worlde Reserve, if you have the patience. I bought 30 RP OWR 2nds (maduros) and they have been aging nicely. I split my order 15 to age, and 15 to smoke.

    I smoke so infrequently anymore that everything in my humi (excluding christmas presents) has at least 6 months of age on them. I, like Kuzi want to smoke more cigars this year.

    Every cigar I smoke is a special occasion. Thank God I have 3-5 special occasions a day!

    I have so many sticks that I age even when I don't want to. However with that being said a lot of what I bought were 5 packs and 10 packs so that I could have 1 and age the rest to see how they develop. Cigars like GoF, Hemingway Between the Lines, all Anejos, and stronger cigars like OpusX, Don Carlos 30th anniv, 5 Vegas Limitada 2008 and 2009 plus others like CS II and Padilla Obsidian get aged on purpose. The Opus and the 5 Vegas are too strong for me out of the box so I want to invest some real time with them and see how they develop. I'm hoping that they develop into something I enjoy.

    When I buy, I always get multiples and split off some for aging. Singles I just decide on a case by case basis. Some manufacturers I just rest for 6 months no matter what, others for 6 weeks, and others I know are good fresh.

    Same here for smoking more this year...after about a year of trying to find that every day smoke and buying boxes of what I "like" I find myself in a very similar situation---lots of stiks with six months of age or more and looking forward for some of these to come upon the one year mark and seeing what has changed or better yet gotten better with the aging, My goal now is to focus more on maintaining my humidors and smoking as often as possible, knowing that my inventory has most of what I like and definitely has the age on them...

    You know, you don't hear the "original metal" stuff that much anymore. I've watched a few documentaries on metal music, origins, and what made them the way the are. Metal is good.

    Man, she's really good Ozzie. Far better than American Idol. She can play a mean guitar too. If I may, what kind of guitar is she playing?
