We've all seen that classic picture of the Fuentes, father and son, that they use for all their ads and promotions. You know, the one where they are standing in a tobacco field, holding a leaf while grinning like they just drank a truck-load of Red Bull, with about 9 cigars conveniantly protruding from their pockets.

Nice picture - and love the Fuentes' cigars, my favorite NC smokes - but I've seen that picture so many times that I feel like I'm in the movie "Groung Hog Day" everytime I open my CA.

Still, this doesn't answer the quintessential question : "What the hell are they saying while posing for this picture ?"

Here is my suggestion. Please tell what YOU think they are saying.

- Carlos Jr : Hey dad, is this what they call a "tobacco leaf" ?

- Carlos Sr : No my son, that will soon be a 20 dollar bill.

Or yet again :

- Carlos Jr : Dad, this must be the most beautiful tobacco leaf I've ever seen in my life.

- Carlos Sr : Junior, I told you not to inhale that cigar smoke !

Carlos Jr : Hey dad, is that a cigar in your shirt or are you just happy to see me.

This is what I think.......
- Carlos Jr : Hey dad, "Do you think some guy out there with a lot of time on his hands will ask the the quintessential question? :
"What the hell are they saying while posing for this picture ?"

Here is my suggestion. Please tell what YOU think they are saying.

-Carlos Jr : How long do you think that photographer is going to keep us in the sweltering heat holding this damn leaf ?

-Carlos Sr : Shut up and smile, trust me, there gonna use that stinkin' picture for a long long time !

Carlos Sr. Says: (In Spanish) Smell that tobacco leaf. Smells like CR@P.

Carlito retorts: (Also in Spanish) No it smells like MONEY$$$

jr-they arn't very soft.
sr-i can see it happening sooner than later. you should learn how to braid hair you useless #@$% because if this happens you'll be good for nothing but braiding hair on the beach for tourists.

Son, I just sent a memo to President Fernandez. “Keeping the electricity on down here equals OpusX on the Desk, comprende?”
