buckfast,
yes of course, thank you.
I meant the Muslim world beyond Turkey.
My first wife was born in Istanbul, though she is Christian.

Dave, I bought many brands besides cohibas.
I got some Partagas, Hoyo de Monterey, Romeo y Julieta, Diplomaticos, Ramon Allones (excellent!) on and on. I also bought too few bottles of excellent aged rum, it is like single malt Scotch, same color, same smoothness.
I liked Cuba maybe a little more than Yemen. I’m sure we will all have an opportunity to visit soon once Obama lifts the archaic trade embargo, but there is something special about forbiden fruit, no es verdad?

I used to live in Hong Kong and we’d get good Cuban cigars there. You could also have them mailed back here to the US as well.

I know a Yemeni guy who is gorgeous. He’s the one I mentioned earlier that everyone thinks is Puerto Rican. I don’t know how to say “muy caliente” in Arabic.

Please post more positive things about the Middle East.
Especially about the gorgeous women.

I just knew I didn’t want them to stamp ANY passport in Cuba, I bought a shitload of cigars let me tell you.
