My dad and I went down to KC this weekend for the barbeque,Vikings (ugh) and the Chiefs game and for a night at the Outlaw. The KC crew all met up at the Outlaw on Saturday night for smokes, scotch and football. I wanted to say thank you to Brent for being a gracious host....again. A special...

Joe C. put together another exclusive event. The food was fantastic. The Baggo tourny was great. Good job to the best Filipino on Cigarpass.

Happy Birthday John.

I hope you get some courage for your birthday. The bully is back. Happy Birthday buddy!

Linky No new information here....but entertaining nonetheless.

My father is from southern Iowa. He turned me on to Templeton Rye a few years back. I was in Chicago last week and was able to try it again in a bar. We set up Templeton against (Ri)1 and Wild Turkey Russell's reserve. The Templeton blew them both away, IMO. If it wasn't so hard to find, I...

Last week, the Mpls crew hosted Superbowl Pool winner and all-around good guy, Alan (Engspot). We all had a great time with good food and good cigars. Today a 20lb box arrived at my office. It is a "thank you" care package that left a crater on my receptionist's desk. Apparently we need to...

Joose Kills That is the last time I accept free alcohol from a strange man, wearing a sweater with epaulets, who plays Rock Band incessantly....ok maybe not.

You are getting old, your golf game is in decline and your Fantasy Football team leaves something to be desired. Happy Birthday old-timer.

I had a great weekend. I smoked some great cigars, drank a lot, golfed a lot and the Vikings won (finally). Top that off by finding this great .gif file featuring Katy Perry. Life is good. I just kinda felt like sharing.

MN crew's hot young stud is a year older. Happy Birthday bro.

As some of you know, I run a large security company here in Minneapolis. I was out of the office for appointments and did not get back until late morning (after the mail arrived). My assistant had placed all of my mail, including a large EXPLOSIVE device, in my mail inbox. You would think...
