    Things you do while smokin

    I only smoke outside so as long as it's light, reading a novel (classics, sci-fi, historical fiction) is my 1st choice. If it's in the afternoon I usually set up a blanket under my Maple or Oak tree & enjoy the bliss of a warm sunny day, book in hand. Sometimes I will listen to something that...

    I simply cannot wrap my head around anti-tobacco zealots

    I believe his reference to corn was sarcasm, given the entirety of his post. (link above if interested in full context)

    I simply cannot wrap my head around anti-tobacco zealots

    http://terriermandotcom.blogspot.com/2009/07/wendell-berrys-pipe-dreams.html This is a blog I like to read & the author always struck me as someone who is open minded & believes in liberty. He seems to believe in intelligence & reason over fear & paranoia. However, something in a recent post...

    Open letter to CP

    First of all, I hope no one minds my bumping of this thread, but I personally found Rod's letter to be very informative & a good reminder of the effort a forum owner puts into their site & the benefits we as members reap gratis. Perhaps others joining since 1/09 may benefit from reading this as...

    Cigars Aged in Balsamic Vinegar Casks?

    Ah, the trouble we find ourselves in. Pace yourself, you have the rest of your life to enjoy these fine things. ;) But if it is of any help, I just found this site which tells me that aceto balsamico tradizionale is always packaged in the same style of bottle: Here is another picture that...

    Cigars Aged in Balsamic Vinegar Casks?

    I just noticed a 12 yo Acetum from Costco for 1/2 that price. I may give it a try. The ice cream - I will have to try that. Thanks for the info.

    An Industry Icon's Quest For The Signature Cigar

    I just heard this on the way home from work & thought it was interesting. I do however have a newbie question. Looking at the LGC logo in the picture, those are not the same LGC cigars I buy at my B&M (go to the article page for an enlargeable image). I have seen that logo before in reference...

    Soap?

    Vinegar doesn't do the trick for me. However, I have found that if I rub a quarter of a lime or lemon on my hands & vigorously rub the juice (a fresh peel/skin works also) in for a few minutes, that seems to resolve the problem.

    Cigars Aged in Balsamic Vinegar Casks?

    ??? It was purchased from the grocery store, Alessi from Modena (I liked it the best of other brands I have tried). Which, as it turns out, isn't considered "true" Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale. I think I would rather have not known that :(. Nonetheless, at this point it serves me well & I...

    Cigars Aged in Balsamic Vinegar Casks?

    Last night I supped on a lovely Italian dish cooked by the lovely Mrs. Morcerf. As a side we had the usual French loaf & mixed olive oil, balsamic vinegar, fresh pepper & fresh grated Romano as a dipping oil. As the dinner became no more than a pleasant memory I decided it was the perfect...

    Palio Cutter

    "Score & lift" - that's new to me, I'll have to try that sometime. I have used an Xi3 (I believe) & it was exceptional (though I would purchase the Xi2 - same blades, right?). Once the 2nd coming of a particular B&M opens near me, I plan on taking a closer look at the Palio as none of the...

    Palio Cutter

    I think that is the 1st post I have seen where someone stated they have both but prefer the Xikar. Usually it is the other way around - which makes me lean towards a Palio, even though I would like to support the local company.

    Outlaw Cigar to expand....

    Outstanding. :) October? Damn, that's fast. Now I won't have to bundle up on my patio in the winter! Strange that I don't see any mention of it on The Outlaw's web site, however.
