    Weekend is here...what's tonight's smoke and drink combo?

    Eh.. Tonight I'm having a water or two along with a Corona Extra and a George Reserve (which seems to be sparking?!) and perhaps a Gurkha Symphony. :) (trying to get through some of my stuff before enjoying some latest purchases).

    Ashton Heritage Puro Sol #2: Nice way to start the day

    I have a sweet tooth so mea culpa. That's probably the only reason I like those but I don't have them that often. My ultimate preference is still the Padron Anniversario Series 1926. :) And thanks for the compliments.

    Clove Cigars?

    Ok. I wasn't sure and had thought that it was really a clove cigarette. Many thanks everyone. :) Edited to add: Well, my friend found the link. This is what he was referring to: http://www.indonesiacigarettes.com/djanger...-bali-p-64.html Anyone ever seen these?

    Clove Cigars?

    Someone had asked me if I had tried clove cigars yet. I don't think I have (don't think that Acid cigars are Clove unless it's their Ambrosia line) and they had thought the one they had tried was Kretek (?!). Does anyone know of or has tried a specifically clove cigar? (I always associated...

    Anti-Smoking maniacs

    Same people that feed their kids McD's 3-4 times a day and think it's healthy. :p Uh-huh. But you have hit it on the nail. People focus on the wrong things in life. George Burns smoked what, 10-15 cigars a day and was booked right up to his 100th. There are so many factors that can determine...

    Cigar Name: Don Pepin Garcia El Centurion Cigar Description: Nicaraguan/Corojo 1998 Cuban-seed filler with Corojo, again Cuban-seed, 1999 wrapper Review of the Cigar itself: The cigar band came off nicely which means they didn't use too much glue. Cutting it and lighting it released a...

    Ashton VSG Tres Mystique is a nice mystery

    Thanks for all the comments. I will be definitely trying out the other sizes of this brand. And I tend to be often distracted by her, not that I mind to say the least. ;)

    Recommend Spyware Software for Mac OS X 10.4

    What browser are you using? Most spyware comes through Internet Explorer's tie into the Windows Kernel. Safari, Firefox, Opera, Mozilla are all good alternatives to IE. That said I don't think I've ever heard of spyware on OS X. ClamAV is a great AV option for OS X. That said, I doubt this is...

    Ashton VSG Tres Mystique is a nice mystery

    Cigar Name: Ashton VSG Tres Mystique Cigar Description: Ecuadorian wrapper with long aged Dominican long filler Review of the Cigar itself: It lit beautiful and the first draw was flavourful without being overpowering. The ash didn't flake like other cigars I've had and it held it together...

    Google Chrome and CP

    Actually, that's one of the main reasons I won't be using Chrome. Their EULA has the following: No way am I letting the possibility of stuff that shouldn't be shared be shared like this.

    Google Chrome and CP

    Definitely does. Try doing a comparison using this tool: http://www2.webkit.org/perf/sunspider-0.9/sunspider.html My IE6 was about 100 times slower than Firefox, which is twice as slow as Chrome. It's probably because it's "Media Edition" which is a specialized version of XP.

    Google Chrome and CP

    It's Google's new browser. You can see more details here.

    Google Chrome and CP

    Rumor has it that they may be supported in the next 3-4 months. I still prefer Firefox (although it can be a bit of a pig)

    Google Chrome and CP

    Which OS? I think it only had a couple of Windows supported types at this point. It's probably not worth it just yet as there has been some DoS and other major flaws found in it already.

    Google Chrome and CP

    A-Ha! Found it: it has trouble with detecting proxy info (I was using it on my work computer which, when connected to the VPN, has a proxy detection). Now it works. :p
