I love porters and stouts, which are great for cooler weather or enjoying inside the house where it is cool, but are too heavy for me to drink while I am outside. I cannot stand hoppy beers at all. I have tried alot of them and just cannot drink them. I spend most of free time outside during the...

Please explain what I did that was bad enough for you to blow up by front porch?  There are pieces of a priority mail box and porch everywhere.  :D   Joe, thanks for the great package, I am truly humbled by your generosity!   Alan 

As some of you know, my youngest daughter Stephanie has Bipolar disorder. She was diagnosed several years ago, but with the help of medication, therapy and a lot of love and support, she was able to lead a very normal life. Now she is 14 with puberty in full force and it greatly effects how well...

Last night I was looking thru my coolidor and ran across this cigar. It is about 6" long with a ring gauge about 49, the foot has a pigtail with a lighter colored wrapper and yes the picture is upside down. My google fu must be weak, as I was not able to ID this cigar.   Any ideas?  

My day started out with a flat tire about 15 minutes after leaving the house for work and did not get any better as the day progressed. If it could go wrong it did and just when I thought it could not get any worse it did. So on the way home, I decided the best way to fix this rotten day is to...

When I started drinking beer, I started with some of the mass produced beers. I went from Miller Lite to Bud Lite to Corona, and everything in between. After years of drinking those, they just started to taste flavorless and were not an enjoyable experience. I wanted deep complex flavors from my...

After a long day at work and with dinner out of the way, I decided a little relaxation was in order. I filled my glass with Four Roses Small Batch and headed to the humidor. I wanted something better that the “usual” smoke, so to the bottom of the humidor I went. I found an Opus X Fuente Fuente...

I will be smoking a Boston Butt for Pulled Pork, Baby Backs, Smoked Shrimp, ABT's and Beer Bread. It is going to be a long night/day at the smoker, with plenty of time for bourbon and cigars :p What are your cooking plans?

I will pay for any information leading me to the whereabouts of B.B.S. That long haired scoundrel just DESTROYED my house! :angry: TOTAL ANNIHILATION! This must stop before my homeowners insurance carrier drops me for too many claims. Yes the Newbelloin has take another hit. A very devastating...

I stopped by Spec's on the way home from work today. A sales rep. for Bluecoat American Dry Gin was there providing samples. I usually drink Bourbon, but I do like gin, usually Bombay Sapphire and Tanqueray Gin, so I decided to give it a try. She mixed a Bluecoat and tonic with a slice of lime...

At 1:30pm today, a Nuclear Warhead landed at my office. There is total devastation!! Nothing left, just a very large crater! Words really cannot describe it. Seriously, I really do not know what to say. I am truly humbled and not deserving of such generousity! Thank you Swissy! :thumbs...

As I am getting close to my house, there is a great explosion, so strong my windows in the car shatter. I round the corner and find nothing. My house is GONE, I mean NOTHING left of my house but slivers of wood and pieces of brick. :angry: As I park and get out of the car to try to find my dog...

Here are a few pics from my trip to the coast. We caught 13 Bullred total, the largest being 38" My biggest 2 at a time Another

I need a good vacuum sealer. I am looking at the FOODSAVER V3840. Anyone have any experience with this unit? I have researched it quite a bit and it seems to be the best for my needs. Thanks Alan

Once upon a time, there was a newbie. The newbie enjoyed cigar smoking, but really did not know much about cigars. While browsing the internet one day, he stumbles upon CigarPass. The newbie enters the site and looks around. Soon he discovers a great wealth of information and friendly people...
