    My days as a Cowboys fan are probably over...

    I agree. I have been with them since the beginning, thick and thin. Glory days and 1-15 records. Now I have to rethink my loyalty. T.O will not help them at all, just poison even more what has been a mediocre team of late. Denver looks good to me!

    I talked with Mark 2 weeks ago atfter seeing an offer for a good price on a box of 1964 padron Anniversario Exclusivos. I placed my order on Friday afternoon and my order was delivered Monday afternoon. Great service.

    ring gauge

    I voted 50-54, I am not crazy about the smaller sizes, although, I do like my Montecristos #4 and Cohiba Siglo #2.

    Reinforcing the seal on my new humidor

    I had the same idea to seal the back where the power hookup is. Mine was pretty wide open. I used the self stick, 1/4" door weatherstripping. Peel the backing off and put it as close to the edge as I could, and then mounted the box. When test fitting, there was one side that i ended up, putting...

    It's Here! It's Here!

    I guess you liked the pictures of mine. I didn't hear back from you so I assumed you didn't like it and weren't getting one. Glad to see you liked it though, nice enough Xmas present.

    New Humidor

    When i purchased mine in August, Dave had 6 glass doors available. However I chose to go with wood and voted that way as the stealth mode appeals to me. I don't want certain people knowing my habits, and I don't want people mooching over my cigars, when they really would not appreciate them.

    Taking the plunge with this humidor

    I also am a proud new owner of this unit. It is very nice, solid wood, pretty graining and finish on the exterior. It also comes with an electric box that fits in the back with two outlets (light and oasis). I am using beads about 3/4 lbs. It came three days before a 3 week trip, so I just wiped...

    Sudden drop in RH

    IMHO The difference is in the temp. I have the 70% beads and in the summer when the house is warm, I had no trouble at all holding 68-70%, now that hte house has cooled down to the low 60's which is where I like it, the RH now will run between 62-65%. So the differenece is due to the temp.

    Cigar Emporium?

    If this is the shop on front street. I did drop in there had a lot of nice cigars, but I didn't think I was knowledgeable enough to know a real from a fake. I took the FOG suggestion and went on down the street to the La Casa Del Habano. No question about autheniticty here. Nice place to smoke...

    Thompson humidors

    I would absolutely stay away from Thompson's! They have no customer service and there money back guarantee is not worth the paper it is printed on. My hunidor did not seal properly, so I ended up having to do some repair on it to get it to hold humidity and it is fine now. But I will not do...

    $10 digital hygrometer

    Thanks for the heads up. I went right down and got one to veify what I knew about my analog one. The Radio shack is showing steady at 65% while my analog one is at 60%. I knew the analog was off by 5% from the salt test. But it is reassuring to have a digital. This model is so small.

    I want a good sampler!

    I checked some domestic prices in San Juan, and they were pretty much what you pay here. My lovely wife bought me a Padron 1964 Torpedo ($15.95), and the Ashton VSG I saw were $9, about what theya re at home. I did not check domestic prices other islands, since I had planned on the La Casa Del...
