Kennedy did have a rather valid reason for his doings, I'd say a lot of blame lies with W as Castro came out of power during W's administration.

so would it be easy to get one over to cali?

i would think it would be ok.  i will try and find a nice one

saweet give me a price when you get one

There is a certain amount of risk doing this.  Mail from Canaa to US addresses can be inspected and one of you would get busted. 

The mailing risk would be MUCH less if Frankie carries them over the border and mails from within the US.  Hypothetically speaking, of course...

But then Frankie has to get across the border without the Gestapo finding his contraband.

  stupid borders. ooooooo put the cigar in a handlebar grip the reseal the container 

Frankie, do you have dual citizenship?  Technically, it's illegal for a US citizen to deal in cuban goods even entirely outside of the US.  This includes recreational use of tobacco products.  According to the OFAC site fines as high as 250k or 10 years imprisonment can be imposed on any US citizen violating the embargo on cuban goods.

So, yeah, it's legal for an American citizen to go to Amsterdam and get high as hell, but not to go to Canada and enjoy a nice cigar

That statement cracked me up!

I find that if you 'look' American and answer all the questions calmly you should be able to scoot through boarder patrol fairly easily. Just make up some secret hose that you can store stogies in and put it in your fuel tank. Like in Easy Rider. 

Or shove em up your ass............... good enough for the coke smugglers

Can't go wrong with Cohiba or Monte Cristo's

I prefer the Monte Cristo #2's

Always an option... 

However with a little planning and I do mean a LITTLE, you should be able to come up with a place a bit more comfortable. 

OR, you could just not commit what essentially amounts to a federal offense over a f%$king cigar...........

The Treasury Dept. has in the past issued individual exemptions allowing 'businessmen' to import cuban goods while in cuba on business, but restricts the goods to personal use.  Sounds like a couple of head honchos in DC have a taste for cuban cigars.

I admire JFK most because he nailed Marilyn Monroe.

And twice in ONE day, I agree 100% with Yama.  Dude 

And then Billy Bob Clinton goes and puts an incredibly ugly spin on Presidential adulterous relationships   Stupid Redneck.


JFK was a freaking pimp, the man had women falling on him everywhere.
