Happy Birthday Charlie! Merry sends along her best wishes too! Hope you had a great day.

I still remember chasing a loose blue crab around the kitchen while my wife stood on a kitchen chair hollering at me to "Catch him!". Yeah, I'm trying but he's fast, scared and then, really pissed off! For what it's worth, it's just about impossible to catch a wet, mad crab with salad tongs...

TFF! Yeah, you gotta add the "Everybody cleans up their own puke" to the Outlaw rules. Years ago I was a helicopter crewchief in the Army. We enforced that rule for everybody. No matter what the mission or who we picked up, It was a salute, "Good morning, sir", "Here you go, right in...

Pressure washer!

About a year ago I went through a several month effort to install Linux on a 1 year-old Toshiba laptop. I tried the (then) current version of Suse, Ubuntu and Fedora. I spent between 1 and 3 weeks with each install. The installation process was pretty straightforward (with Ubuntu being the...

That's great news. Hope she's back to twisting you around her little finger in no time!

I worked for a while, for a large investment firm in Boston. They had a room available to the fund managers that was like a library for investing. They had a group of people that worked all day to keep the charts/graphs and data up to date. Fund managers could request info, hold meetings...

Hey BBS, I had the same job at my local grocery store! I worked as a "bag boy" for 2 days and they transfered me to the bottle return department. I sorted and racked returned bottles by company, brand and color. I did that for over a year and then got transferred to the produce department...

Sweet! Very impressive. I had a shot at rolling a couple of years ago under the watchful of Billy Perdomo. Of course, the "cigar" was already pressed and all I did was roll the wrapper on it. Nick Perdomo was there and his wife took some great shots of me rolling the cigar. I've captioned...

That was very cool, nice to get the full range of processes. I've visited a farm in CT during harvest season and the "back half" of the processes were pretty much the same, although the farm I visited had a "sewing" machine to help make the hands of leaves. We hope to go back next early in the...

If you have consistently tight draws on your cigars or at least more than you think is average, you may want to drop your humidity level of your humi a notch. I live in Florida and have difficulty keeping the temperature of my humi much below the mid-70's and I used to keep the humidity at 70%...

Geez man, that's a drag. Hope things work out for you. Thanks for the advice. I'll do that today!

I read this one a while back...really a good read. Amazon book linky Here's the wikipedia entry on him: Wiki

The Pusher is a classic! I recently bought some Steppenwolf from iTunes. "Monster/America/Suicide" and "Don't step on the grass, Sam" are classics. MAS scares me how much it is relevant today!

As I was driving to work this morning listening to my iPod on shuffle...it occured to me that I'm glad that no one else knows what I can sing along to... Ok, I'll go first: "I want candy" by Bow Wow Wow

That's pretty cool. I enjoyed my recent conversation with the Newmans and the president of Corona Cigars. It's interesting to get their perspective on things...

I had the chance to spend some time talking with Eric and Bobby Newman along with Jeff Borysiewicz from Corona Cigars this weekend. Jeff has taken on defeating this bill has a personal issue. He's made several trips to DC and met with members of both parties. He said Rocky Patel has been...

I remember them from school....poems that don't rhyme and don't make any sense....that's not much of a definition, so I read the Wiki entry...that didn't help either. I figured I would just get a running start and take a shot.... :laugh:

Thoughts disconnected Rhyming? Not the stanzas! crap poetry, haiku Edits: Maybe someday I'll hit 1000 posts! I had to post this to get my post count.... Thanks for all you've done. I've enjoyed your reviews and appreciate the effort you've put in around here.
