The headstones wear Hawaiian leis and Mardi Gras beads. They are festooned with bottles of Yuengling, flasks full of Jack, boxes of cigars.
In Arlington National Cemetery’s Section 60, where those killed in Iraq and Afghanistan lie, the graves aren’t just markers of remembrance; they are canvases decorated with stones, shiny balloons and handwritten notes. In this corner of the nation’s most sacrosanct military burial ground, all manner of ornamentation abounds — one headstone is covered in lipstick kisses — bringing a colorful poignancy to an otherwise monochromatic place of mourning.

It's been an often debated topic among cigar smokers for years. Are name brand cigars really better than no-name brands? Do you feel better buying an "original" Rocky Patel cigar or a lower cost "house brand" cigar made by Rocky Patel...or Nick Perdomo, or Pepin Garcia, among others, for that matter?
Chances are, when in doubt, most folks will go with the "original." Why? Because house brands are an unknown entity. But when you think about it, a cigar made by any of the top manufacturers is still an original blend. It should still have that manufacturer's signature on it in terms of flavor profile, character, and bouquet.
