So, I got hooked onto Juliets recently, started dating my first Juliet named "Ducati" a few years back. I stuck to her through thick and thin, but I was itching for more and out of a sudden, it become a five-some.

The 5 Juliets behaved at first, living amicably with each other, but slowly, they clamoured for more attention and started to mess with my mind. ARGH...... I can't take it anyway, so with a Shakespearean twist, I took delivery of this ....

A (maybe) interesting tidbit of trivia...

The x-metal frames "Romeo" and "Juliet" aren't actually named after the Shakespearean play. They're named after the cigar brand "Romeo y Julieta", a Cuban brand that moved to the Dominican Republic after the tobacco industry was nationalized in Cuba (though Cuba still produces cigars under that brand name).

But the cigar brand is named after the Shakespearean play, so the connection is still there, just once removed.

That said, I love my Juliets and Romeo, too...

BTW here's my source for that trivia, Jim Jannard himself...
