    Is Aging Always Better?

    In my opinion cigars are like wine in that they both get better with PROPER aging. Some wines take 15 to 20 years to reach maturity and the same holds true for cigars. Eventually both will pass their prime, but it can take decades for this to happen. A well aged cigar or wine can be...

    Do You Ever Shop Offline?

    I've tried to support my local shops over the years, but after 5+ years of not being notified of incoming Opus X shipments - not ONCE - I finally said, "screw 'em." I'm tired of paying $7 to $10+ for singles also. Most of my purchases are now done online or in person at the local JRs for...

    Seen any good Movies recently?

    "Road to Perdition" Setting circa 1931. A movie with a very dark mood. Beautiful cinematography. Tom Hanks should at the very least be nominated for best actor. Best film of the year so far. Paul Newman hasn't lost any of his talent. "Gold Member" If you don't like this movie, "boo...

    Best Cigar Under $3?

    Consuegra (Connie) Maduro - ANY size. Can't be beat for the price. With one years aging they're as good or better than most premium, high dollar, cigars. I always keeps several bundles to age. I buy them at JRs. La Gloria Cuban Wavell, Medal D'Oro #1s, and their end of the day seconds are...

    One of my favorite places...

    We've got a little town in North Carolina called "Climax." It's near the BBQ Mecca that is Lexington, NC...so perhaps the town is aptly named. :lookup: Sam

    Atkins Diet

    Very good advice Beast! All of your suggestions are right on what everyone recommends, especially the cardio and the water. I forgot the part about drinking a larger amount of water. I had a girl friend, back when I was in my early 20's, who kept a glass of ice water on her desk at work. She...

    Atkins Diet

    Darned funny that you should ask the question. I just check read three of his books after hearing about his diet. Within the last week I have done a lot of research on the Atkins Diet vs. all of the others. My opinions, for what they're worth. The Atkins diet restricts carbohydrates to less...

    Bolivar Belicosos Finos

    BOLIVAR BELICOSOS FINOS ***The cigar is actually a little bigger ring gauge and over and inch longer than it appears in the picture. They are almost the same size as a Montecristo #2.*** I had been gifted one of these last year by one of the Cigar Pass legends (thanks Mr. R) and it blew...

    A Bad Cigar Night

    I dropped my favorite "Volcano" butane lighter a while back and it never worked thereafter. Bummer! I replaced it with a Prometheus, which works even better. Darn thing is made as solidly as a Mercedes-Benz. Dropped IT onto the kitchen floor a couple of days ago, but so far it's still working...

    The Poker

    I've got a "Draw Poker" as well. It works just fine. Luckily, I haven't had to use it many times, but it works well to open up a tight cigar. Saving ONE plugged Cohiba justifies the price. For the cost of ONE saved Cuban cigar....buying it was a "no brainer." No cracked wrapper by trying to...

    Great musings from George Carlin

    I've got to say that I agreed with every single one of George's quotations, which surprised me. He used to have some political ideas that I disagreed with, but none on this list. I still like his "Crooked Bacon at the Bottom of the Pack" routine, which goes back to his drug days of the 70's. He...
