LOL, I hear you.

If you use a passive humidifier in your humidor (like the beads), the RH will always fall below its setting at some point. Also, depending on the moisture content of the wood in your humidor it can take several months to fully stabilize. I saw a write-up from an institute of some sort on the...

I am now considering making a trip this summer just to see this thing in person.

For all you Jarheads out there, I just read an article title "Proud Witness" in the American Society of Civil Engineers April 2007 "Civil Engineering" magazine (www.pubs.asce.org). This details a number of aspects of the new National Museum of the Marine Corps near Quantico, VA. The article...

Michigan now has a line item on the state income tax form that allows you to pay a lump sum tax for out-of-state internet purchases. This is based on income level and assumes all purchases are less than $1000. Those over $1000 are to be figured separately. Since "I don't keep records of my...

From my own experience, I believe that the nicotine is the sole cause of the addiction whether it be in the form of cigars, cigarettes, or otherwise. To my understanding, nicotine is one of the most potent substances known and can be addictive in small dosages and deadly in large amounts along...

Thanks for a great review!!! I have heard before that these were good sticks. Hope to try one some day myself when conditions warrant it. Cheers, antaean

I think this weekly special is a decent deal. My experience has been that I have to look long and hard to find better prices, including shipping, on the Dominican Republic Montecristos. I can certainly find them for around 10 bucks less online (at least for the #3 of the classic line) or even...

My business trip took me south, almost to Sebring. I met a BOTL named Wayne S. who insisited on having me sit down with him to smoke some A. Fuente Hemingway Exquisitos. Nice smokes and very nice BOTL. Now this man was a virtual stranger to me but we were working on the same project from...

I'll be going to the Tampa area tomorrow for an overnight stay on business. A real quicky trip. I've read a bunch of threads here about the Tampa area and a few cigar shops to visit, but don't really get an impression as to specialty or specially-priced cigars in the area. I won't have any time...

Very nicely done guys!!! You've inspired me for yet another weekend project :laugh: Cheers, antaean

Unavailable or sold out at the time of your original post per Mitchell... ??? Cheers, antaean

I use 65%RH and close to 65F (plus minus seasonally) for bulk storage/aging. I have gravitated to different desktops for smoking. I keep one in the 68% to 70% range near 70F for many of the light to medium "domestic" smokes. I keep another one at 63% to 66% and 65-68F for the darker, heavier...
