Brickhouse shoots and scores ! Yep, Ultraman. One of my favorite shows as a kid when I had access to cable television.   PM me your addy and I'll ship your prize.   As for the movie, I thought it was ok. Paid matinee price so that made it better. Better than the remake from 17 years ago, but I...

I attended a Gurka event, and got a nice deal on some cigars. As part of the deal, I was gifted some Gurka Ghost Robustos. So, here's a contest for a Gurka Ghost Fiver, and some other stuff to be known to the winner.     I saw the current Godzilla movie yesterday. However, Godzilla was a part of...

I blame Al at PuffnStuff for getting me hooked on Lanceros years back. (Also when he would post his deals).   Smaller ring gauges have been my preferred size since.    Me think Doc protests too much.

Math equations, Red Sox, and male nipples ? This thread is going in bad directions on multiple vectors.

Great news and thanks for sharing

I can't speak about Atkins pro or con, but a friend a few years back was on Atkins, and she made "fake mashed potatoes" out of steamed cauliflower and white cheese. It was a pretty solid dish, and I would eat it whether on a diet or not. 

Based on this thread, the review requires not just contemplation but a few differential equations.   Cparker

I can't comment on Doc's joke as I'm still trying to work up the courage to click on iron peddler's link.  That one a few pages back made me want a patch on both eyes.   Cparker

1. Treat others as you want to be treated. 2. If you don't have time to do it right, when will you have time to do it over. 3. Never point a gun at anything you don't intend to shoot. 4. A winner never quits and a quitter never wins. 5. Success is a matter of luck, ask any failure.   Cparker

I would not hesitate to bet on an assumption Doc makes.   Or, one could read "forgop" as "forgo p" that by interpretation means a option against urination concluding that only off put left is excrement.   This seems about right.   Cparker

Kinda a seahorse as opposed to a donkey ?

Thank you for all the posts. As Doc said, I want to do it right the first time.   I think I will take a stab at trying a few conversions to FLAC myself.   I researched the audiophile sights, and while I appreciate technical detail, at the end of the day, my view is I just want a stereo system...

Ok. I have a small stereo that I have decided  to upgrade (NAD receiver, PSB speakers, Sony CD player). Its about 18 years old. I have about 400 CDs, and have decided that the smart thing to do (arguably) is to convert the CD's to audio files so I have a ready test bed of music that I enjoy to...

Dear Steve,    You will be in my thoughts and prayers.   Cparker

I have not done a pass in many years. This would be my second on Cigarpass. I would like to participate if allowed.   Best   Cparker

It was about January 1995, I was living in Manhattan, and a local B&M sold me a Savinelli ELR torpedo. (At the time, I did not know it was made by Arturo Fuente), but the taste of that cigar is still in my mind.    While I had smoked a few cigars prior, this was the first that really made me...

In my view, history has shown that the Cuban embargo did not work, and does not work.   The United States' best weapon against communism was never a missile or a CIA agent. It was simply American culture.   Trade restrictions, to be effective, must be absolute. The Cuban Embargo has never been...

In some ways, its reminiscent of the USS Monitor in the pictures of the hull at the Plimsoll line.
