When: July 16th, Saturday @ 5 PM Where: North Orange County (address will be PM'd to attendees Hey folks! Long time no see. Life has been super busy (new position at work, kid, bought a house), so I've been absent aside from keeping in contact on Facebook with some of you. We've been hard...

Everyone tells you how much work infant kids are, how you will sell your kidney to pay for formula and diapers... Liars. You can't even exaggerate about it. Holy shit. That being said, the munchkin hit six months old this week, which is hard to believe. It's been a looooong six months...

Can't say I'll miss her, as obnoxious as she is....damn! Got home from work at 0830 this morning, and promptly collapsed into bed. A couple hours later, my wife wakes me up holding a bunch of boxes and saying, "Hey, this all came for you..." You all are amazing. With everything that's been...

Despite everything going on with the wife's job, there's also always good news to look forward to. Today we finally found out what we were having, and now I'm eagerly awaiting the arrival in October of Remington Anthony Quarto! Only scary thing is the kid moves a LOT. My mom laughed...

I'm a firm believer that God has a plan for each of us. That being said, sometimes I would really appreciate it if there was a warning sign once in a while, like, "Caution - Bridge is Out" or something. After a few years of being crammed into a crappy studio apartment with my wife, dog, two...

Michael Anderson, to be exact....   Thanks for blowing up my mailbox, the smokes you sent look delicious.  I assure you I will follow your instructions, and details will be forwarded.  Much appreciated!

Man. Another shooting at Fort Hood....hopefully they nail the bad guys ASAP...

Many of you knew Jon, both on the boards and off. Those of you that were fortunate to make it to the memorial herf heard me talk of getting memorial bands made for him, and were very much wanting to hear more. So, I finally present the idea to the forum in general, and am open for ideas...

Last night La Habra, which is just a couple of miles from our home, had a 5.1 earthquake. I was at work in Cerritos, sitting in my patrol unit doing paperwork and suddenly the whole car was shaking pretty good. The trees got to moving, street lights too, and I was thinking, "Damn, this is a...

I'm here until Sunday morning. Anyone else in sin city?

So, I'm in the market for a new bushcraft/backpacking knife. I love my Ka-Bar BK7, but I'd like something a bit smaller for when I carry my tomahawk. I've been eyeballing the Esee 4 and Swamp Rat Rodent 4. That's about the size I'd like, seeing as I have a combat Bowie already. Not...

Most folks think Jon's favorite cigars were Opus X, and they would be right in the sense that he was a big time Opus whore. That being said, if you had asked him what he felt his ultimate favorite cigar was, he would have told you if he could smoke just one cigar only, it would be the Don...

Well, it's been a while. I've been off the boards, mostly because I've just been too damn busy to even pay attention to what I ate for breakfast. Life has been hectic (in a good way), and I just let a lot of things slide as I tried to juggle. Jon's passing has brought everything crashing...

Has anyone been to this place? My buddy and I were given a business card for it, and told that it has been there forever, and is owned by an old Cuban guy who hand rolls all his own stuff, similar to Leon's in LA. We picked up some of his smokes that he had just finished up, and we are...

Went over to visit my buddy last night for smokes and drinks, and after my flask of Balvenie ran out, he broke out a bottle of this stuff. This is what Jack Daniels Tennessee Honey should taste like. From what I read, it's a vodka based honey liqueur. It's very sweet, but not so much that...

Me likey. CP looks awesome on my TV. Anyone else using it?

Had this for the first time at a Bruichladdich tasting last night. I'd never had any of the Bruichladdich lineup before, so it was a great evening of discovery with my fiancée by my side. She's not one for hard alcohol, but she went with me anyway so I didn't have to roll solo. Needless to...

I know this has been discussed before, but I figured with all the new releases and such, perhaps it would be best to refresh the list of suitable candidates. I'm getting married in October, and I'd like to purchase a box of smokes to keep special for celebrating the anniversary every year...

I picked this up today at bevmo on a whim. So far I'm liking it very much. The sherry comes through mildly but obvious. Thoughts?

Hey Rod, I tried posting a comment to someone's profile, and this is what I got: "Sorry, an error occurred. If you are unsure on how to use a feature, or don't know why you got this error message, try looking through the help files for more information. [#10233] " I'm running IE 8 on...
