    How often do you smoke?

    When I work from home, 1-3 a day (if the g/f is home -- the smoke can sometimes give her a headache). If I'm home alone then it can be 2-4 a day. When on the road 1-3 a week.

    Olympic Oopies..

I saw her snatch this morning during her warm up and it was amazing.' 2. Dressage commentator: 'This is...

    Looking for a couple of books.

    I'll 2nd Neal Stephenson, George R.R. Martin and Gibson. I'd also suggest Larry Niven, particularly his Ringworld series or single novels (Destiny's Road is real old fashioned sci-fi, IMO. Very imaginative.) For non-fiction, I read a variety of readers but on specific topics. Lately it's been...

    Kudos to Uptown Cigars

    Hopefully this is the right place to post this but I wanted to publicly "call out" Uptown Cigars (Kingston, NY) and Israel for being absolutely amazing in their customer service and speed. Israel was kind enough, a while ago, to give me oodles of matches (and some simple cutters) when I was...

    ACID Cigars

    They do have a sweet and unusual taste. If you do like them, you may like the Drew Estate line. In particular the Dirt and Clean ones (both are a sweeter cigar).

    Favorite Setting / Place to Smoke?

    In my home office with one of my furrkids on my lap, purring away or when out with friends at the beach or at the park. It's more fun when you have lots of friends to pass the time and shoot the shit. :)

    Padron Cigars - amazing smokes

    I'm a huge fan of Padron 1964 (and recently ordered a 1926). It's the only cigar I've ever given a 10/10 for my own little cigar rating book (where I keep my bands and thoughts on the cigars I've tried). Like you, it's also the only cigar I've never had to relight or touch up. It was perfect...

    Today's Smoke

    Yesterday was my fist visit to Coney Island and shared some Davidoff Primeros, Cohiba, Georges Reserve, Natural Dirt and Perdomo Reserve Cabinet Series P with some friends. Made smoking those even more fun.

    cut off from CP

    A proxy server is one way to do it (anonymizer is a good and trustworthy site to do this with). The question I'd ask is why they are blocking alcohol and tobacco products. I would caution you to be careful about it. Some companies may see this as "abuse" of corporate resources and have reason...

    Amanda Beard and PETA

    PETA is one of the worst organizations out there and I say this as a vegan. I think they do nothing for the "cause" they are promoting. Their recent ad in regards to the Greyhound incident in Canada is a prime example how PETA doesn't get it.
