That comes across very flattering. To me it reads more like a sales pitch from a catalog than an evaluation.

But then, I used to think that the JR catalogs were as funny and irreverent as Mad Magazine.

I had a friend who lived and worked in Honduras off and on. He'd bring back these butt ugly but very tasty cigars called "Jorge Lopez" or something like that. Turns out that was the owner of the local farm market my pal bought them at. Before learning that I spent hours trying to to find out about them online. Boy I felt dumb.
